Thanks guys for the quick replies and links. I've been reading, and searching my eyes out lately... (wifey working late past few nights, so what else is a guy to do.... but spend 40-50G's

)
I could live with a sunroof, but have no use for and don't like the look of the Cabs, (sorry Joe-Bob

) Living in California, it won't see much water, so even if sunroofs are known to leak, it probably wouldnt ever be an issue. Don't want the whale tail either. Too flashy. I see cars with well under 100k miles, and some as high as 300k ! That amazes me that someone could/would drive one of these for that amount, but i guess thats a testament to the quality. I don't plan on driving mine daily, and i probably wouldn't put 1000 miles a year on it so even a high mileage one won't end up "higher" during my care. I suppose a lot is said for a car that has been well used and had things rebuilt and fixed rather than an all original low mileage car that yet has to have those things done to it. (or am i totally off base with that ? ? )
Speaking of the tails, can they be removed and you end up with the same non tail look, (aside from mounting holes) or is that just crazy talk ?
I'll get to my research and try not to ask anything that isn't already been hashed out.
Cheers
