A quite comfortable sedan with lots of room for 5 people. Ok gas mileage - 480+/- miles on a full tank. It is a good overall car and currently there is both a shortage and huge demand for them at this time. Some US Police Departments use them as squad cars.

Willys CJ2-a and CJ3-a

When somebody thinks jeep, this is what pops into many peoples head. These are the first generation of Jeeps produced for civilian consumption. This is the original and most iconic SUV. These Jeeps are incredible easy to fix thanks to their military heritage. They have an amazing parts availability even to this day with many small company selling nothing but early Jeep parts. There were enough of these units produced that they can still be considered common in many places in the country. While these Jeeps are very drivable in their stock form, they lend themselves very easily to modifications. V6 and V8 engine swaps are common, as are axle swaps, suspension and body lifts, and transmission and transfer case modifications. Many tall people will probably prefer later model Jeeps since legroom is nearly non-existant in these.

International Harvester Scout, International Scout 80/800

A lot of people will prefer the second generation of Scout, but I much prefer the originals. What it lacks in interior space and powertrain options it makes up in build quality and style. These rigs are very bare bones in stock form and are almost agonizing to drive if you are in a hurry to get anywhere. Four cylinder engines and manual trannys were mandatory from the factory but countless numbers of them have been converted by now. These can be found fairly cheap compared to the second generation Scouts due to most people considering them less desirable, I don't see this lasting since they are rapidly gaining in popularity.

Ford Bronco (1st Gen)

The Bronco was Ford's answer to the Jeep CJ5 and the International Scout. Some interesting things about the Bronco were the use of Coil Springs on the front axle and the shift on the fly transfer case. The near bulletproof Ford 170ci and 200ci inline 6's and optional 289ci and 302ci V8's were all excellant engines. These are very popular today and tend to be more expensive than Jeeps and Scouts of the same age. Unfortunately Ford was a little late with the Bronco and it couldn't compete with the much larger Blazer that appeared in 1969, which had an optional 350ci engine and automatic transmission.

Chevrolet Blazer (1st Gen)

When the Blazer first appeared in 1969 it was instantly a hit. It was based on the short wheel base half ton trucks and featured many options common to pickups in those days. A/C was optional, as was a TH350 Automatic Transmission. Engine choices included the 250ci and 292 inline 6's, the 307ci and 350ci V8's. Parts are cheap and the vehicles themselves are failty easy to get a hold of.

Willies Pickup and Wagon

These trucks were extremely popular when they came out and remained in production for nearly 20 years. Early ones are hard to come by and tend to command higher prices. Pickups, panel delivieries, and 2 and 4 door station wagons were available. 4 cylinder and 6 cylinder engines were available, though many recieved V6 and V8 conversions over the years. I wouldn't mind having one of these as a daily driver.

Chevrolet / GMC Suburban (1960-1966)

This was the first generation of Suburban to have a 4x4 option available from the factory. In my opinion these have the best styling of and suburban. The option of a panel delivery version was also a very cool thing. Engine choices included inline 6's, small block V8's, and in the GMC the 305ci V6 was available. Many parts cross over to Chevy / GMC pickups of the same year, which means that parts are readily available.

Dodge Power Wagon (1st Gen)

The Dodge power Wagon entered production in 1946, it was a civilian truck based on the 3/4 ton military truck produced by Dodge during WW2. These trucks were produced with very few changes for over 20 years, staying in production until 1968 for the U.S. market. These trucks are not easy to find in good original condition. These trucks are incredibly tough and have really good looks. They are very bare bones compared to other trucks that were being sold at the time they left production. Inline 5 cylinders and manual tranmissions were standard for the whole production run.

Removed Land Rover Series 2/2a, Nissan Patrol, Toyota FJ40 which are other possible options.
