I seldom drove it because I felt embarrassed to be seen in it. I felt like everyone was looking at me and thinking that I was showing off. I sold it as soon as I could six months later. I filled up maybe 3 times! The top came off once!

I bought it because I always thought they were good looking and so I always wanted one. Once I had one, it was not a real big deal. I thought the hood was too long and the back was too short. I knew the gas mileage was bad but I did not expect to be able to see the needle move when I drove.

It just did not fit my persona I guess. I feel proud to drive my old diesels. I am proud of the engineering, the sound and the size proportions.

I'll probably be scorned for this post but what the hay.
