Thank you! Ive taken my outback’s places that you shouldn’t and even loaded up long blocks in the back for other projects. And with a decent set of tires it’ll perform just as good if not better than your new Audi/vw/Volvo suvs in snow. Plus they’re cheap, and easy to replace.
Sorry, the trade in would be a 50k mile 95 Miata in a nice spec and excellent condition. I had it before the Miata market went crazy so I’d be happy to turn it into another 80. The Miata is Montego blue, pretty similar to dark emerald too.

Thanks for the response! I agree with you 100%. I’ve driven high mileage cars that were an absolute treat during ownership, all while owning sub 100k 10year old cars that were nightmares with issues not directly related to maintenance and upkeep
I know there’s already discussions on this topic but now that it’s 2022 and our trucks are getting older and more valuable; how many miles are too many? In 2010-2015 and earlier you could get a clean “low mileage” 80series for a decent price. That’s no longer the case. With that being said is...
