I've had my '98 mountaineer for a while now, I think it's time for a change.The miles are getting up there and I'm just bored with it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/boring.gif.42c69fa49b1e73e6332d62b462a2a4b3.gif
Now, my main issue is my fiance.She's 5'2", and sometimes she drives my vehicle.I'll need something where she can see over the dash //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/hilarious.gif.02a037aad04aa96f19982b298a3d70a8.gif

Budget is around $7,000 at this point.

Need something that can seat 4+ people, and still have room for a 3cf. box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

I had a cavalier before, it was ok.I don't know if I could go back to a 4 cylinder after having a v8.

Any suggestions? I'm open to almost all options.

supercharge it

Well, I found a '02 cavalier I like, the '96 S-10, and I found an older isuzu rodeo, no troopers so far.

Still on the hunt.

good luck with your search but for real if you find a trooper take it for a test drive.

Well I may keep it, so far nothing that suites me better all around..

Besides, I have a 200A alt. in this one.

Anyone want to help me track down some parts for it? So far minimal luck.....

If you don't like your Mounaineer anymore, you could get a Toyota 4Runner. They're nice, and are very reliable, but seem underpowered due to the puny v6. But they're not rattle-traps like Domestic Vehicles. Plus they'll last forever, and you can do countless mods to them.

Jeep - Just Enough of Everyones parts

What im saying, dont get a Jeep. They are junk. If youre looking into imports, go with Nissan, Toyota, or Honda. Dont go Korean. Korean = Shit. They are horrible. I will never buy foreign.. but a Toyota 4 Runner will do you nice. As far as domestic... Blazers are nice, as well as some Explorers... Too many of them around though.
