Yeah, this winter has been nuts. Everyone was saying it was gonna be a really bad winter, so I made sure we had more wood than we’ve ever had split, stacked, and ready. Not a bad thing, because I’ve hardly used any of it. Just means less work for next year.
I was always into the EF hatch backs and CRXs. There all rot boxes around here now. After the EFs honda followed the make it a round blob with no character theme that seemed to rule the early to mid 90s. Most of my civics were pounded relentlessly so fuel mileage wasn't a top priority. I had a 90 CRX SI that's on my short list of cars I'd like back. Others on that list are the 79 fox with 351W swap, the 2 more doors sleeper civic, and my 93 240sx.Fuel and oil changes are the killer for a diesel, I sold my f350 crew cab when diesel was just under $4, for a bit it was at 4.50 a gallon up here. The good thing is I was driving then and the speedway rewards program gave you .10 per dollar spent on fuel not per gallon(they changed it not long after lol), so I was filling the ford up every other week for free, the semi I was driving only got 4.8-5.2 mpg so I was racking up the points pretty quite.
I like the one in the picture, 5 speed with manual windows and steering, it does have A/C though. My old eg got much better fuel economy, I checked it over 8k and it got 38.56 mpg and I got on that little 1.5 L pretty hard, I liked it better except the red paint. I have a 2000 insight that I hope to get on the rd again some day, the lifetime average on the car is 54mpg, it's nice for chasing down saws and generators.

You go ahead and keep that garbage up there. Take it to Idaho with you.Looks like may get my wish. 4-6 inches of snow on the way. I sure hope we get all of it and more.
Hoping for a level 3 so I can stay home and play in the snow with the kids
LMAO!You go ahead and keep that garbage up there. Take it to Idaho with you.
I wanted it checked over before I list it for sale online. I’m glad I did. Looks like a parts saw now...
Well, good and bad news from my local dealer.
Good news: they replaced the carb on the Wife’s MS180 for free, and I dropped off the 254 to be fixed.
Bad news: While my MS310 has 140psi of compression, the cylinder wall and piston are scored on the exhaust side
A Ford Excursion is almost as rare as a unicorn around here
But , this one has a rebuilt transmission/transfercase , set me back 500$ and I had to put 300$ into it to pass a 2 year road legal I figure why not .
Polly regret that decision later Lol
We don’t have any!
That’s nota bad idea!
Send it to me. White on the ground means money in my pocket. So tired of skipping winter around here.
