Hey Johnny... check out the Small SUVs...... and to think some idiot in
here suggested I get a Wrangler... a poorly made WW2 era design.

A jeep product? Pure, unadulterated crap. Jeep vehicles used to be
plain, solid, tough and utilitarian. That hasn't been the case for many
decades, probably not since the 1950s.

Methinks the self-described "he-men" here are jealous of your ability to
pick a vehicle that meets your toting and towing needs without blowing
the budget or burning more petrol than needed.

Look at the mistake Herring made...he bought a monster diesel truck to
tow a little boat and a lightweight camper trailer a few times a year.
The damned truck is so big, it's hard to park in any congested area.

I'm still looking for my next "utility" vehicle. I've tried virtually
all the small trucks, and I seem to be gravitating towards the Toyota
with a v6 and 4WD.

Yeah, Harry you are SO correct. My last only got to around 350,000 miles
before I sold it. Oh, and it was still running fine. One radiator, one
water pump was the only major components to ever go bad.
