    haha good.

    if you do plan to offroad that truck be prepared for scratches.

    i dont think he was expecting the pin striping.


    im sure it was a bit of a shock for him coming from just riding a nice paved road to well grown in trail with scratchy bushes haha

    I'm pumped man, the biggest challenge for me is going to be finding a legal spot to 4x4 close to the five boroughs. Here in the city I think it's going to be a difficult task. But I'm def all about it.

    Somewhat, I miss having speed and precision on tap. But even though everyone makes the Evo out to be so practical it's really not even close. I do miss it, but the taco makes me forget rather quickly, and I'm sure once I prepare this thing for 4x4 it's gonna justify my switch even more.

    I'm sure your insurance went down a lot. I went to buy a EVO a few years back and bout died when I got a insurance quote. It was more than the car payment! I Get in too much trouble with speed!

    Yea, mine was pushing almost 365 hp to the wheels, and on the stock block and turbo it was a time bomb waiting to explode that motor lol I'm glad I sold it when I did. I had a 350z before the Evo and I'll tell you that's my fav car I've owned.perfect balance of sport luxury,and comfort Turbos are sweet, but nothing beats having power on tap with zero turbo lag. I blew two motors on it though. It was an 06 and had serious oil consumption issues. And close to 50k for the new 370, I couldn't justify spending that on a z car lol. I ended up paying 36 for my truck down from 39 and the dealer gave me 22k on the Evo. My insurance also dropped 110 dollars a month lol.
