Thanks for the info!!
Your car is the car that I was wanting !! But I think that with the information I have learned so far I will definitely be keeping the Land Crusher!
It is stil excellent for those cross country trips. We have driven our little family of 4 comfortably from Colordao to
San Diego
Michigan
And most recent South Dakota and Wyoming
So Now it seems that I believe the car of choice for me will be a C2, probably a 90-93 with a tiptronic transmission.
Like you I can garage it for the winter months, and pullit out after April!
With this direction known now, is there Tiptronic trannys pretty strong? It seems overall the car is quite utilitarian, and not very many gadgets or anything, so with a good engine and a good tranny, shoudl be much more reliable than my previous rides.
My previous headaches have been:
Lancia Beta and Zagato
Maserati BiTurbo
And Range Rover 4.6 HSE
The rover was my personal NIGHTMARE!!!! Costing me around $5,000 a year to maintain and repair
aftre 1 year I said forget that! and went to the Crusher. Which has cost me about $1,000 or so over the last 3.5 years.
So I just cannot see selling it. I'm sort of in love with it. And I do like to take Offroading excursions with groups on trails rated around a 5-6 and sometimes even a 7. i would say offroad the vehicle is equivalent to a mountain goat with a bum leg, As this cruiser has no lockers on it.
well thanks for the time, ad by the way, I would loveto work on the car myself if it is minor DIY's.
