I am not saying that you can't use them things (cars) But if you have to go a long way or a steap ramp a car just is niot geared to do it!!
Now if you got to the 60's and 70's before gas was a issue now you can get some nice cars easy to work on and with low gear ratio!!

I have 98 F150 now and love it, But I have not got money at all!!
Before this year I used a 1990 Full size Blazer 350 TBI and I had to rebuild the rear end, the tranny, transfer case, new gas tank, ect ect ect to keepm that thing going!!
And the only reason I moved on was that it was rusting off the frame!! Other then that it was and still is a great truck with 189,000 miles when it left me last Aug.

What ever you have to do to save is what you got to do!!
Cars are great, but not for the long run.
