yardhippie 0 #27 November 20, 2006 After careful review and a nice little test drive of a Civic SI this weekend, I believe I must remove it from the list of potentials. Just a blast to drive especially when you start wrapping it up around 6-8 grand. WOW! But Im fraid with even the 4 door. Theres just no enough room for all the junk I haul. Im headed toward eliminating all cars that have trunks. I just need the room for more stuff and a hatchback is the way to go.

teamjenn1 0 #34 November 20, 2006 You should just get a HO. It's has plenty of room for gear, Dutchess and whatever else you want to tow around! If you're lucky, you may even get your own personal driver! And...what other vehicle would be so much fun to say, "Dude, I almost spit sparks all over your Ho"!*********************************** "His dick is ringing!" Female Skydiver "Well...answer it!!!"

Could always get a Durango, too.... they've got a decent rep and decent amount of room yes, and Ive sworn off Dodges. its too bad really cuz I like the looks of the Magnum R/T. Dodge seems to have serious trouble building a transmission that can hold up. Ive owned two and both were shot before 80k miles. and Jen: the HO is just too big for ATL, but the gas milage sucks. Remember Im used to a car that gets 28-34 mpg.

brianfry713 0 #38 November 20, 2006 I've got a 2004 blue Subaru Impreza WRX STi sedan. The trunk is not that big. I'm not sure which Suby you're talking about in a wagon. From what I've seen, you can still only get the Impreza WRX STi in a sedan. The Impreza WRX comes in a wagon, with a little less power than the STi. There's also the Outback and Legacy, but I don't think any of them currently fit the STi wagon description. Anyway it's a fun car to drive. My engine and turbo blew out on me but fortunately I bought the extended warranty. I also put a bigger exhaust and a new ECU on it.BASE 1224, Senior Parachute Rigger, CPL ASEL IA, AGI, IGI USPA Coach & UPT Tandem Instructor, PRO, Altimaster Field Support Representative Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
