don't get it if you're worried about gas mileage especially if you're thinking about putting a lift on it.

"its pretty cool that there are locals that might be willing to help me out if i decide to get it.. even though some are from auburn (im sure thats who you cheer for).. nobody's perfect.. roll tide by the way!"
That is why he wears the mask!
in a couple of years, when we've gotten situated, i can get a jeep for a project, so im thinking a brand new wrangler rubicon unlimited..
Putting even a $2-3K into a cruiser would be good investment if the go-in price was right, even if it is a 92/93. Why so negative? Even considering gas mileage, spending a few hundred more on gas per year (assuming the alternative isn't a hybrid or motorcycle) shouldn't be an automatic be a reason to reject this.
To be honest, "building up" an 80 is not exactly the most cost-efficient build out there. If you are looking to build up a 4x4, a heep would be a much more cost-effective alternative.
I gotta disagree, cause if you can find a locked 80, add J's and L's for a grand, you're more capable even un-armored that most Jeeps out there, even those with thousands of dollars on long arm kits and thousands more on lockers.
who would buy such a nice SUV to "wheel only"?? my personal two pennies that i can barely rub together right now, the 80 series deserves a better life than woods and mud only.. i can understand bashing up a jeep or samurai and parking it in the back yard to let nature clean it off.. but an LC, its higher class than that. Oh sure i'd take it offroad as much as time and money would allow, but as soon as i was done for the day, straight to the car wash..
winner!!!
80's are CHEAP to build to "wheel only" cause alls you need is lift and tires.
