I hear Bush has formed a group that is to explore alternate fuel options.

Brainpaint stands to make millions.


Seriously though, I'd like to try and flip one of those over one day. You think the owner would mind?

I can't stand the things, but it is mainly because of my dad and uncle. They freaking love Minis and Miatas. I can't even get in a miada because I am too damn big, but the Mini does have more space.

I understand the gas issue, but the things feel like they run a couple of AA batteries...

I did have a good laugh when my uncle tried to brag about how fast his miata and mini were...I guess I am just used to the torque that my SALEEN Mustang had because all I felt was a slight "peppiness".

I bet it saves alot on gas though.

I am seriously thinking of getting rid of my SUV and then picking up a motorcycle and a smaller truck, like a newer Ford Ranger. I need the truck for hauling and what not, but the bike would be for daily use and around town errand running.

A few years back - When I needed a small truck for working on the weekends - I looked at Mazda, Toyota and the Ford Ranger.
Bought the Mazds B2200. My brother had the B2000. His ran great and got about 30 mpg.
The larger engine was a killer. Only about 24 mpg.
And the bed of the truck rusted with just a scatch.
Had to sand it a bit and paint it and bed liner it.
Still rusted through in 6 years.

I saw the same Ford Ranger the model year I was looking at just before I sold it.
Bed was scratched up a lot but - not rusted through.:bang2:
Both were listed at about the same MPG.
