Default Traded my Honda Rancher for a 98' Saturn SC2

Yep, i traded up even. The car for the ATV. Now i have something to drive around while i rip into my truck. And it gets nearly 40MPG. Now i dont have to worry about having to have my truck run good around town, i can go all out and make it nasty.

Not to mention the Saturn was owned buy one owner who worked at a hospital, probibly a chick. It is 100% bone stock. I took it out and raced my buddy with his hopped up J-spec honda with all kinds of goodies on it and kept up. That little 1.9 is quick.

I think i'll end up getting something like that also. I don't wanna get rid of my rancher though. Luckily my dad has two trucks b/c mine was down for 4 weeks with the tranny rebuild. Sometimes I had the '77 F150, sometimes the '03 silverado. After driving a stock truck for that long it made me realize that I don't regret moding mine. Of course his rides better but that's the important part.

if it a 5 speed that it is pretty quick, the autos are ok with the performance shift. my g/f had one, it was great to rip around in. i wish my beater was a stick it would make it so much more fun to drive. oh, does it need any new tires? i got some for sale Link

Nice! Trying to be like me and Scream, huh? 40MPG? Wow, mine gets only about 25-30MPG but of course I zip around in it like a madman I don't know about the newer Saturns, but mine's a '93 and it burns oil like a ****. Check it often!
