So my taxes are getting done in a few days and i really need to narrow down what my next toy will be and i want your guy's help and more importantly i want to hear your experiances if you have owned one of the models im looking at.
These are the different makes/models I'm thinking about buying...my budget will be roughly $5,000-8,0000
1987-93 Fox Body Mustang (no stock 5.0 motors here, the ones I've found and like are h/c/i 331 or347 strokers or csc'd 306's w/light mods)
1996-1999 Mustang Cobra w/ 4.6 4v
1993-97 Pontiac firebird w/LT1
1998-2002 Pontiac Firebird(preferrably a Forumla) or camaro w/ LS1
What im looking for is opinions, issues you may have had with said car, what you liked about, what you didnt like about it...whatever. All opinions are welcome and yes i realize this is more of a mopar site but im hoping some of you have driven/owned/raced a few Ford or Gm products at some point lol

In a few months I'm going to be getting a company car. Currently, I use my Sonata for work duty. However since I'll be getting a company car soon I won't need it or the payments. The dealership I bought it from is going to buy it back. This brings me to my current situation.
I'm on the road a lot. Usually between 50-100 miles a day. I have roughly 3g's to spend and I want something 4wd or awd. It's been some time since I was in the "beater market" and I'm looking for some guidance.
So far the best bang for the buck is a Jeep Cherokee between 97-99 with the 4.0. From what I've read those are the best years. Are the Grand Cherokees with the same drivetrain just as dependable? Having owned a 98 Durango and having the tranny go 3 times I'm weary of Chrysler transmissions.
My other options are older 4runners. However that's a tough find for under 3g's. I know personally how tough they are having seen many come through the shop when I was at Toyota.
Older Legacy's are another option. The AWD is excellent, mileage isnt bad and they're a good looking car. However, I'm not too up on how reliable they can be with high miles. Chances are in my price range it'll have at least 130-150k on it.
Pathfinders are another option but to be honest I don't know much at all about them.
Blazers are junk in my experience and so are Exploders so I'm not really considering them.

Toyota Prius Camper.....or Dirty Car Porn?

My mind goes straight into the gutter... Is if Prius drivers weren't already big dicks. Now they can add one to their car just let be sure that you know...
Here is the story about how they are passing this one off.

Toyota Prius Camper Carries on Grand Scandinavian Tradition
It's commonly said that folks who used to drive Saabs now drive Subarus. While this undoubtedly is true in the Northeast, in California, at least, they also flocked to the Toyota Prius.
One of the more ingenious accessories ever developed for a Saab--aside from the absolutely boss rear-window louvers--was the Toppola camper. The concept was simple: Unbolt your Saab 99, 900 or 9-3's rear hatch and mount the Toppola unit. Voilà, an instant Euro-scale version of a cab-over pickup-bed camper!
However, with Saab in its final death throes, is the granola joy of thrifty FWD-based RV'ing gone for good? Not if Camp-Inn of Nagano, Japan, has anything to say about it. At the Tokyo Auto Salon, it unveiled a Toppola-esque appliance for the ubiquitous and hyper-thrifty Prius. Unlike the Toppola, which sat basically flush with the rear of the intrepid adventurer's Saab, Camp-Inn's unit extends past the rear of the car by 20 inches, offering additional space. So much space, in fact, that the company claims that two can sleep in the top bunk, and with the hybrid's rear seats folded down, another pair can catch 40 winks below.
Admittedly, “Prius Relax Cabin” doesn't have quite the same jaunty lilt as “Toppola,” and the design is certainly more Neon Genesis Evangelion than Scandinavian Modern, but given that Toyota actually built a few Evangelion-themed Prii, it can't exactly come as a surprise now, can it?
Perhaps it's time to pack some freeze-dried soba along with the organic reindeer jerky?

Chaos 2.5 - '98 Avenger with '00 motor
x7426170x
- 01-19-12 07:35 - 13 comments
Well it's long over due but here's a project log...
right now I have a '98 dodge avenger es, with '00 avenger motor in it (both v6 FTL I know)
car has 156,XXX miles on it total when i originally got it it had 118,XXX miles on it and the swapped motor has roughly 93,XXX miles
swap was done with 133,XXX on the car
pretty much the basics done to it
-cold air intake
-custom exhaust
-reverse glow gauges
-blacked out turn signals
-obnoxious audio set-up
not sure how much I plan on doing with it since it's a daily driver but future plans hold:
-tinted windows
-painting the rims black (spring time hopefully)
-painting the hood black (summer)
but we shall see how that goes...
And yes I know my engine bay needs cleaned lol
