What else in your garage?

Not nearly as cool as some of the other rides you guys have. Got rid of the POS Pacifica and bought a 2024 CR-V Sport L. This is right after the tint was done. Wife will drive it for 3 yrs before it becomes my commuter.

It’s insane what golf carts cost these days. I thought about buying:overhauling and selling but you can’t even get a project cart for an amount you can profit well from.

ATVs are the same way. In 2019 I bought a Yamaha Raptor 660 for $1500. Sold it for $2700 last year, and probably could have gotten more.

Bought the Ram to tow my Jeep. I take it wheeling every chance I get. Lately that's not very often. It's a 2006 Wrangler Unlimited (LJ).

Bought this 04 Sahara about a year ago around Christmas. The intention was to put off buying a new vehicle a bit. I have 3 boys and my oldest turns 16 in December. So this will be their vehicle. Figured something slow would be good for a first time driver. Armor probably isn't a bad idea either.

I was interested in buying a new Wrangler as my DD. Wife was adamantly opposed to having a third Wrangler. So figured the Ram gets better gas mileage, a better DD, and can tow the Jeep.

May I ask how your Eco diesel is holding up?

Sure can! So far so good. Only noteable mechanical issue was at ~65,000 miles. I had a CEL for a glow plug failure. After a day at the dealer they figured out that the glow plug control module had failed and it was partially covered under warranty, but I was still on the hook for shop time to the tune of a few hundred bucks due to being over the 36k bumper to bumper. During the time the truck ran fine but sounded like an old tractor on cold starts from 0°-40°F. While it was in for the glow plug issue I got the injection pump replaced under recall. No noticeable change in performance in the last few weeks after the pump replacement. However the peace of mind of knowing that I now have an injection system that wasn’t built on a Friday at 4:00 PM is nice. Currently have 71,200 miles and putting on about 70 more each day.

Those little things look sweet. Someone in our garage at work has one in that blue with a matt finish PPF on the front clip. Very sharp. I would need a T-top and a hospital bed lift to get my big *** in and out of it though!

Its not as bad as some sports cars, but the bucket seats are not made for "wider" frames. :) I'm borderline in that regard.

It was very snug for in my friends M3 with the factory racing seats. Had to take my wallet out of back pocket.

I recently drove the previous generation of this as a rental, I think a 2019 NA I4, and it was rather impressive. Almost mid-sized, tons of room for cargo to the airport, drove well and amazing fuel economy for it's size even in the city. I'm eying the current version of this or a RAV4 as my A to B commuter, I'm not ready to go Model Y just yet.
