[mike_papps]

Hey guys.... ok this is getting ridiculous.. Recently i sold my crotch rocket and my 94 integra and purchased a nice low km 91 integra. ANyway im selling the integra now. I've had probably 30 vehicles in just 5 years.. some projects and some daily drivers. I HAVE AN ADDICTION!!... now im in the process of purchasing something else. I need something that is going to make me happy and i dont knwo what that is. Ive had everything from a 4x4 to a suv to a sports car a bike.... no planes yet.. but there comming. like wtf? Is it just me or do you all have this too? I find myself constintly looking for good deals or selling when i dont have to.. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANYTHING THAT WILL MAKE ME HAPPY??

Ok heres the fun part.. After i sell my integra i will have about $3000- 5000 to spend.. What should i buy? I really like SUV's because i have a daughter and i like the iea of a nice video and navigation setup.. but i like speed too.. i love the compact scene and love working on them... i love trucks because well lets face it.. there cool. if nothing else why cant they just make one to fit all categorys.. well i guess they did with the ranchero or the el camino... HELP GUYS!! IF YOU HAD MY MONEY WHAT WOULD PLEASE YOU!! OR WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD PLEASE ME? ( besides a punch in the face for being retarded )

Easiest ting to do, to make the pain go away...


...end yourself, now! jk

Seriously, what is wrong with you, 30 cars in 5 year? Can we have a list, please?

Spend the money on willpower classes or something.

Hobbies are a great way to spend your spare time and to do things you enjoy, but when they start interfering with the rest of your life in an unhealthy manner, you've got a problem. It's like fat people and ice cream. Sure, ice cream tastes good and it's good to let yourself indulge every now and then, but when you lose control, you get disgustingly fat and no one will want to be friends with you anymore.

well id have to say, if you like an suv, AND you like speed, then sock some of your cash away and pick up a typhoon ...... thats just my perspective on it

typhoons are sick...

Also how much are you looking to spend on a SUV? Just $5000?

[mike_papps]

yup just 5k... i dont want anything too new i like to fix them as apposed to warrenty doing it...

[3G]

get an early 90's pathfinder or a grand cherokee

[Euro_Trash]

Your problem is you haven't found THE car... start looking at some VW's, then you will be so happy that you wont have to buy any more cars

[mike_papps]

mybe ill buy one of each... haha.. if damn insurance wasnt so high i would.... buggers...

[lastprodigy]

5k? thats tough.....If you want SUV Im gonna have to agree with 3G then, (shocking) but yeah early 90's p-finder is the way to go....mind you its gutless.....for a car, i would probably suggest a....yea i dunno...youve had all of em

[GTS Jeff]

ya fattie.

[C4S]

That is ok .. it is just your hobby .. since all those cars are very low priced cars, as long as you have parking spots for them, that is fine!

Just like some people like changing cell phones .. changing camera/lens ..

[alloroc]

I see your problem.


Not one Toyota on the list.

Find yourself and AE-86 or an AE-92.

They are wonderful little money ( and time ) pits.

You can always do 'more' or come up with something 'new' on your own to mod them. Then once you think you have it right something will break, then of course you have a new excuse do to even more lol.

Don't ask me how I know
But if you need confirmation just ask Jeff hehe.

Find yourself a used Ford Lightning. Speed and it is a truck.

[mike_papps]

Ford Lightnings are just a bit out of my price range... THen again i guess a 350 in a s-10 would probably come close to that.. and thats affordable...

We have a mint 97 Ford Explorer that we got for 5000 even with a bit of shopping around and bargaining. Very nice car, very good shape, definitely a good investment for winter. There's an idea for an SUV under $5.1

But if you want a fun car, then it's time you got finished with this up/down wanking and join the wankel club. That's right, rotary engine. If you can get an 86-91 RX-7 you'll be quite content I think (they're often in the 3-5 range, turbos usually list at 6-8). A lot of people love the peppy, unique, high revving rotary engine. An engine that's meant to redline? That's what I'm talking about Rotaries require a slight bit of learning on how they work (half an hour on howstuffworks.com =P) but they're pretty reliable and a blast to cruise in.

Any rotary owner will tell you they've enjoyed their RX-7, whatever year. I think it's definitely worth consideration or a test drive.

[mike_papps]

arent they typiccly more expensive and engine work is horendous...??

[90Tegra]

try some vtectine.
