I found my commuter!

[mingez]

I tried to go Corolla, or Paseo, or Civic. Looked at countless other vehicles, Sedans mostly good on gas. Well, I got a gas saver alright...
But I found one particular car calling to me:

I figured, if I was going to sell my beloved XJ for another vehicle, it better not be plain vanilla. I've always loved Miatas and upon test driving this, I was sold. Get this: I bought it for less than I sold my XJ! AND it only has 60,000 miles and gets 26/34 MPG.

Hey ladies!!!

:lol:

Nice ride... I like it, but



I'd lose the bra.

 

[mingez]

yeah, I hate bra's on trucks and jeeps, but I don't really despise them on cars.

Not sure yet.

 

[Laph]

It's no Jeep but It looks like a nice ride. sure the ladies will like it also:shock:
glad to see you found a car you like, and thats some good mpg.

 

[mingez]

2 convertables...I'm a lucky guy. TJ and MX-5

 

[88Wrangles]

Very nice!! I'm sure that's much easier on the fuel than the XJ was!!!

 

[mingez]

Seriously, I have no desire anymore to buy a Crotch rocket anymore.

Put on a mouse mask and you'll be Stewart Little!

Seriously, I hope it is dependable for ya.

What kind of lift are you going to put on it?

Lookin sweet, I love convertables and I'm sure my next CAR will be one. I doubt I'd fit in that one though if the top was up. I'm 6'6".

I'm thinking of using this as my commuter:

I have one of those too!!! Except it's of the mountain variety.

Me too! All of my darn friends live in Denver Metro, but they all live atleast 30 min from me. Damn suburbanites! (I live in Central Denver)

This will seriously help. It's amazing the amount of miles I put on my Jeeps up here vs. down in Las Cruces or EP. Of course, there is a hell of a lot less places to go down there. LOL, I don't miss that at all!!!

Going down to Culebra Mtns this weekend, and the Miata stays home and the Jeep gets some fun time!!! Yay!

 

[mingez]

What kind of lift are you going to put on it?

a 13 1/3" body lift. Maybe some blocks. And some 33" retreads. With 8" extended bumpstops. And disco's. I might even get some gold daytons. I figure Ithe Miata outta be able to hang with Sparky and South's Jeeps with that configuration.

 

[Joopin]

You sold the XJ? Nobody told me!

Looks like you bought your mid life crisis car a little early! Haha!

 

[jbdayojeep]

Did it come with a surrey top??

 

[bchcky]

please tell me it is a stick?

Maybe if you put on some 33LTB's, a Motorcraft 2150, some Hell Creek leaves and did the Nutter Bypass.

 

[Sparky-Watts]

What, ya couldn't find one in pink with leopard skin seats and purple dingle-balls along the windshield?

One question: which foot do you wear it on? I didn't even know they still made roller skates that weren't inline!

please tell me it is a stick?

YUP!
