and um...not my truck....but it is my truck because it does better on dirt and snow

Yes it is a 03 L that was the year they introduced the sonic blue (hence the sonic in sonic mike)
before 03 it was true blue that was a darker blue color.

Nice STI by the way,I plan on getting a evo mr or sti after I finish paying off my L.

Thanks! The STi is about 7 months old and has just about 15xxx miles on the clock from all kinds of journeys. The new WRX's are definitely worth looking in to. As is the Mitsu Ralliart Sport Wagon if you're looking for something non-sedan. Otherwise, the Evo's and WRX/STi platforms will surely not disappoint.

Here's one of my good buddy's home-built father-son project Bronco

I had an 87 Toyota sitting next to my driveway for about that long trying to get motivated to work on it. I finally ended up selling it a couple of weeks ago. Too many other projects on the books

I'm not cool enough to own a truck.

Well, only a few of us actually OWN our trucks.

Most of 'em are still owned by the bank.....

Wow, good to see a lot of other Dodges.

Was at the drag races tonite and some guy had one of the Jeep SUVs with the SRT motor. Stock it ran 13.5. Pretty impressive to see a truck go so fast. Another guy was out there in a Dodge 2500 Diesel running 15.5s, which was also surprising in a four door long bed.

There was another guy with a Cyclone that was running mid 12s.

Hopefully no one minds if I bump up an old thread. Can't shut up about cars & trucks.

Here's my 2009 Ford Ranger XL. I have a tendency to go for bare bones vehicles, and this fits the bill: RWD, 4-cylinder, manual transmission (though it DOES have A/C). A $4000 rebate from Ford helped me to say "Yes please!"

It's hard to argue against a truck that has been getting just under 30 mpg in the year I've owned it; in fact, I filled it up today and calculated my MPG at 33.4. Plus, they've been building it FOREVER, so it probably won't be breaking down anytime soon.

Crappy cell phone pic but just picked this up yesterday. Took the wifes 4Runner in for inspection and some how came home with an extra vehicle.

NeuRon · 05-10-2010, 05:22 AM
