I don't really drive it much now that I have the Runner...but she still runs fine and she'd take me on a trail tomorrow if I needed her to It's not the greatest vehicle to go long distance on the mountain highway inclines since it hasn't been geared, but it was primarily my rock crawler that I'd take to trails nearby (20-30 miles). I bought the Runner to replace my Mazda 6 as a daily...and of course the Runner sees all the attention now.

Any pics? I'd like to replace the wife's Legacy wagon with something like this when the time comes.

The RKC is the largest bike I've ever ridden but with the low center of gravity and that I can flat-foot it, the RKC is remarkably easy to handle, even in city and parking lot traffic. I'm 5-9 but a very solid 175!

I had narrowed it down to the RKC and a BMW GSA and the latter's seat height is SO high, one needs to have a MUCH longer inseam than I do (31 inches) or be incredibly adept at handling a large bike with a much higher center of gravity.

I could handle a GSA but in traffic, it was a pain in the you know what, on the tippy toes and one foot down quickly. THAT was very 'old'... very quickly.

With the RKC, and the air shocks and improved frame... the bike is a real pleasure to ride.

2004 Red Silverado extended cab Z-71. Mods for towing mostly. Thinking of trading it in for a new pickup.

With gas getting up there and the fact that I drive at least 60 miles a day, I might buy my dad's 01 civic.

Damn I meant to saw two years newer haha. It's a G2 coupe, there's a pic on the first page. I bought it for $500 as a project... it's a nice car but I'm just planning to fix it up and then sell it and get something a little sportier/lighter and turn it into a track car or something. Maybe a 240SX...

Your coupe is beautiful though.... maybe once I have my Legend all fixed up I'll have a different view on it. As of right now, it needs a transmission and windshield mainly... quite a few smaller things though (ex hood struts, antenna aerial fixed).
