I think you have to take your accountant to the gas station.

Herb Meeder inherited one of these about 15 years ago. He said it felt like being driven in a marshmallow. And it got 6-8 MPG. Not sure if he is still on the board.

If you had LOTS of EXTRA garage space, that might be fun to have. You could take it to Home Depot and to buy a couple yards of mulch.

Needs some Gabriel High-Rider Air shocks!

You gave me a fright. I thought you were going to buy an Audi.

I think that thing's beautiful. As long as it looks like it doesn't need a whole lotta work, I think go for it.

The funeral flower cars are kinda cool. Of course I have an El Camino that I love so my view point might me skewed.

Will it hold a motorbike?

BeyGon 03-19-2018 07:20 PM

will that fit in your garage, if so, do it. my buddy just bought a new F150 4 door Raptor and had to take the cabinets out of his garage to make it fit.

All I can see is a four wheel drive conversion with some sort of camper on it.:D

Back in the 80's, I used to was cars for a wealthy farmer in North Calif. He had two El Dorado custom pick ups.

Buy it, like everyone says, but try and find an original steering wheel. That aftermarket turd is hideous. At least that's what I think!

Do it. Do it. Do it!!!

Never understood the raptor. Sure supercharged engine. But half ton frame, and a bed that won't fit much.

Back ot.
I think it's ugly.... Do it

I think it’d be hilarious to loan out to guys to pick up their dates.

You could rent it out for funerals.

One word...fugly ! I was never a fan of any Cadillac of any time period until they came out with the CTS.
