Low budget high performance baby mover?
#1
I posted before about getting another single cab truck to modify and I am still considering it.
I have my ECSB that has been taking a small beating over the last few months. Backed into a minivan full of kids (slow speed) and dented my bumper, Some psycho nutbag had a temper tantrum yesterday on the 15 and tried ramming my truck in traffic. I have a blue streak and a dent from his Regal now. Needs shocks, needs brakes, etc.
This truck will no doubt be with me for a very long time, but as I use it more and more (full time DD and work truck), I think it's unrealistic to keep in pristine condition.
I was considering getting a single cab to build. At least this way I can swap trannies and put this back to stock. I am exploring other options because my wife is 4 months pregnant. A RCSB is my first choice, but I know I'll be needing to haul the kid around, so I need something more suitable, that can still kick some ***.
I have a hard time remembering what's out there.
so far I was thinking of a WRX Wagon, or sedan.
I like the idea of the older BMW 740I, like a 2001, but I don't know what I'd be in for as far as maintenance and repairs. That would be a bit more, but I might be able to make it work.
Thoughts on something around $15-$18k?
