Thu Nov 16 17:30:57 PST 2000:Aww yeah. Some 4x4 action occurred today. we have this dirt parking lot behind where I work and when it rains it becomes a lot to be conquered. It's was just the two of us today, but though whole IT posse has trucks, so we will get them to mud with us one of these days.(wimps)

Hot damn. i finally got some pics of the justy up. let's see i
finally got some new wheels for it. it's quite a bit better
unlike those balloon tires it was on before. AWD with correct
size tires is a big difference. I can't even tell that it's
on anymore. In it's near future it needs shocks and springs.
the value cover is leaking quite a bit, and i suspect the oil
pan as well. Not sure how hardcore I will get, but replacing
the seals is probably a start.

Ok I'm thinking the money thing is a lost cause. I've put 2000
miles on it and it's getting about 29mpg. A little lower than
I was expecting, but compared to most cars this is still high!
I'll probably do a tune up in the near future and see if that
helps. I dropped the car off at the dealership since it has
two "minor" problems. There are no dash lights, and awd wasn't
working. They debugged the problems and wanted to gouge me for
$950 (labor + parts)... umm no. however they gave the car back
to me with awd permanently on. Quite a different beast. I
just need to find me some muddy hills to really test the car
out. I'm gonna take some pics real soon. a fellow justy owner
waved to me on the freeway. I've only seen 5 justy's around.
two ecvt, one "generic" in la, one at a distance parked. did
they make non awd/ecvt version?

doh! I found out that it has 140k miles, and he was not the
original owner. I'm trying to get some money back, we'll see what
happens.

I have not taken any pictures of my new machine quite yet. I
bought it from some guy who didn't speak english very well, so I'm
not quite sure of it's history. It has "40k" miles on it and is in
pretty clean condition. The clutch was toast when I bought it, and
the tires are in some serious need of replacement cuz the original
owner put on oversized tires. Nor have i had any road time to
prove it's worth. So at this point, it's just a car.
It's a silver/gray color 70hp fuel injected 3 cyclinder button driven 4wd. It gets about 39mpg.
