I think I will just keep my 86 vanagon. It broke down again this weekend. Part is shipping. Cost me a little of my labor already and 36 bucks for the part that will fix my transmission linkage and a little bit more of my labor when the part comes in.
I also don’t have to pay yearly property car tax on it.
I agree with you. I have a 93 GMC suburban and keeping it running beats anything currently available. Live in Florida so we don’t pay tax on autos only tags. It also helps that I don’t live in a big city. A suburban in a big city would be treacherous navigation.
