Yup, I parked the Neon last night :( :(
I got a '92 Isuzu Rodeo 4WD. It's got some rust, but the tires are good, radio works, new clutch, new cap/rotor, fresh oil/filter, all fluids were checked over. Def. not something that I want, but I need something to drive. I took it to Bloomington (about 400 miles round trip) last night and she purrs right along at 80 mph. It'll give me something to drive while I take care of the other car :(

Congrats man, now to officially make it a beater you need to back into posts and fences and poles on purpose-not to break it, but just to be funny in front of friends. Also you will find your beater is great for all kinds of tasks-plow your garbage cans to the end of the driveway, bump start other friends beaters, your new D1 drift racer, the possibilities are endless.

the possibilities with a beater are endless... especially a 4wd one that sits kind of high off the ground... i just got a free 2" lift for my wrangler, and mailboxes no longer get stuck underneath it.:headbang:
