    I may not have power windows, but I also don't have monthly payments! Clear title in hand!

    I love my truck!

    Power windows are overrated

    As long as it has air-conditioning, heat, and a decent stereo system, I'm satisfied...

    My dad dropped almost $1,600 into getting the A/C leak fixed in 2018 and now the A/C will numb your fingers, the heat has never had a problem, and my stereo system was designed and installed by a neighbor who is about as close to a professional car audio installer as one could get! :headbang:

    I fixed the AC in my 96 Taco the other day, that'll freeze you out too. The AC is way oversized for the little cab

    Unfortunately, it seems like the A/C is undersized in the larger cabs...

    Too bad we can't use R12 anymore. The cruiser system isn't very big but man does it kick out the cold

    Here's one of Murilee Martin's junkyard finds that makes me sad; It's a 1994 Corolla 5-speed wagon! The E100 Corolla wagon is uncommon enough with an automatic transmission in my opinion, but a stick shift example is almost unheard of!

    Because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, I am still resorting "borrowing" pictures I find online; I had no idea there was such a thing as an E100 Corolla "van"!

    My mom literally had this exact car, but hers was white with a blue interior, and had the Toyota emblem instead of TOYOTA on the grille; My parents bought it new in 1990 and sold it in 1998, though my dad later regretted doing so. The car had absolutely nothing wrong with it and had only like 80K miles, but he didn't want to deal with the hassle of shipping it from California to Virginia (even though I'm 99% sure the Navy would have paid to ship it)...
