    This is a negative view point (my view point). The vehicle is a 92' and from a weather area (I think), I would not pay more than $1400 mint for it if I was the dealer, so for you Cwazywazy, you should buy it for $1800 if it has the stock options you like, and take the guy on as the mechanic. Ask for them to manage the wheel bearings. -OR pay what you have in your pocket and burn rubber.

    Wheels, floor mats, the luxury of one owner vehicles would come next. However, I am not experienced in haggling, only opinion sharing. On average I pay the asking price, however I have never purchased a vehicle.

    That is what I would ask.

    I know, $2500 is way too much. There's like a 99% chance I won't be buying it since I have nowhere near $2500 and it's not like my parents will buy it or anything. I'll still probably go look at it this weekend anyway just cuz.

    Posted in the wrong thread previously :/
    It was ment to be posted here..

    Both my uncles own 85 series Cruiser's, These old cruisers are the most reliable car on the market. No doubt about it.
    They never miss a beat, They've never let us down.
    The white one only needs it's Rocker Cover gasket re-done. That's all.
    These vehicles go though alot. They were built to be abused, And they do a bloody good job.

    I'm looking at buying a 75 Series, I've always liked the look of them.

    Yeah, But then I think the 60 series is a bit more fitting to the roamer

    It's straight six Hemi with triple weber carbs, It started life as a regular charger, I just filled it with R/T trim :)

    Not my engine but exactly the same;

    I wish america would have tried to put more effort into their straight six engines around that time too. We had some decent ones, but never had any true muscle cars that used them in their sportier forms.

    I installed a pair of painted reflectors on my E46 M3 today. Thoughts? The driver's side reflector was a little scuffed up when I got it, but I'll be able to touch it up once I order some touch up paint.

    Which were, ironically, from America:p

    The Monaro used a 350 Chevrolet engine, while the GTHO/XB Falcons had a Cleveland or Windsor engine. The latter were trumped by Brock's Aussie inline 6 powered Torana.

    Holden did have their own V8, and used it in the A9X Torana and onwards for motorsport. Once again, the American powered Falcon (and a Camaro) didn't stand a chance;)

    i really like 1990s/early 2000s full size SUVs for some reason

    2000_ford_expedition_4dr-suv_eddie-bauer_f_oem_1_500.jpg

    problem is that it would cost around 79 dollars to fill it up (gas prices where i live is 2 dollars 65 cents a gallon)

    and i really want an expedition too,my dad had a white XLT right after i was born from 2000 till 2002
