This was my daily driver while living in Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati. This thing was indestructible, sporting the venerable straight six, 5-speed combination. I loved driving her in the snow. She would go anywhere any time! Unfortunately, 9/11 happened and I got a 2-year call-up, so I dropped her off at the local 4WD shop and sold her on consignment.
Note the new wheels and tires. I mistakenly trusted the sales guy at Summit Racing on wheel size and offset and did what so many do; went from an 8 to a 10 inch wheel without compensating the offset. This really did a number on handling and forced me to extend the fenders. Lesson learned!
