Merlin Orr Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 (edited) I am sure it's pretty but I gave up on the huge bloated oversized mega super duper sized (read non resized) photo after about 5 minutes of download on my dial up connection.

Intel6 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 This is my 94 BMW I brought back from Germany with me. It is 13 years old and I just turned 63,000 miles. There was a period of time when I didn't drive it much. Great on the street but not so good for going to matches on dirt roads so I am planning to finally get rid of it for a truck. Here is the Suburban that the wife drives. Sucks gas but nice on trips. Neal in AZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HSMITH Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 This is essentially my IPSC beater, my wife uses it when the weather is bad but I generally only drive it to matches since I got a company vehicle........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMS42 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 (edited) Here some pictures of my truck. My dad bought it new in June 1990. The first three were taken on 19 DEC 90 after a wind storm. Right side view. Rear view. Close view of right side. Picture of what it looks like as of June 2006. I got it about 7 years ago. It still only has about 29,000 miles on it. And while I'm at it, I thought that I'd post a picture of my 3 gun gear car. Rifles, shotguns and pistols go into the rear trunk while all the ammo will fit in the front trunk. It's a 2002 Porsche Boxter that I got on my 64th birthday last year. Edited March 6, 2007 by DMS42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HSMITH Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Fireant, NICE truck!! Once you spend some time behind the wheel with a good diesel I don't know how you could ever go back to a gas motor. Mine is just awesome, I have increased the power a bunch and it still pulls 17 in town and 18.5+ on the freeway at 80mph. If I slow down it gets a lot better mpg, but I just can't...... Front Man, there is a LOT of talk about a true 3/4 ton Tundra with a diesel, it should be out for the 08 model year according to Diesel Progress Magazine.

Tundra will have a 6 cylinder Turbo Diesel available before long supposedly. The Hilux (Australian Toyota pickup) has a Diesel available, and if you can find one you can get some of the older Toyotas with a Diesel 76-81. It was a great engine.

Dennis Sherman Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 (edited) My 2003 S-10 Extreme, which I use in spring/summer for the long drive to my work as a Union Carpenter, I live in the sticks. I drove a full size 4x4 which got 8-10 mpg until gas went to 2.75. Some of the guys at work pick on me about my teenager truck, but I am not trying to compensate for somthing else,(such as driving a giant 4x4 to carry my tool belt) it s wheels and it handles well and has some good power.

I was just talking about that with our rep from Toyota today, as of right now it is not likely that we will see a diesel in the near future . The 3/4 ton is being pushed back to see how the new Tundra does. Funny thing is, I was "recruited" by the Toyota dealer to work on the new diesel that was coming shortly and now I miss working on the Duramax. I hope the rep isn't correct, I'd like to see what Toyota could do with a big diesel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
