Thanks everyone. I think Slee said it all when he mentioned the cost of reliability/maintenance. I’m a young college student paying for my schooling and living on my own. I have a good job that gives me a good income, but I just don’t know if it’s enough. I could do my own wrenching, but I don’t have a ton of experience in it and I live in apartments. I could use my dad’s house, but I still don’t have the equipment to lift and engine or anything (I don’t know what would be involved in replacing the head gasket). And I didn’t realize the Birfs were a big problem. Unfortunately it seems like I’ll have to put money into both once I get them. As for the size problem, I’m 6’2” 230+ and I’m driving and ’86 300zx, so anything is an improvement as far as space goes.
Also, I'm looking to use this for trek-type off-roading in the desert or montaints. This mostly consists of lots of sand, some canyon driving, and a little montain climbing. I not the doing-80-through-the-desert kind of off-roader but I don't know how the LC will be in the sand. Again thanks for the help. Some of this stuff has really helped.
