Hi everyone.... I'm new to posting here, but I've been "lurking" for quite some time. Looking to start up my business sometime in the spring. My question is, what do you folks drive for your WR business. I'll have to get something a little more cost efficient for sure, '04 F-150 4x4 isn't exactly the perfect picture of a gas mileage machine! Thanks a million. Huck.

'92 Toyota pick up--standard shift. MPG is excellent, low maintenance too.

'94 chevy s-10 with extended cab, lettering on both sides and tailgate ... whatever you decide on ... be sure to get lettering or a magnetic sign on the back as well as both sides ... I often get called by the person behind me in traffic, because I have my cell number on there as well.

Gosh---some of you have real "gas burners". Guess you can write it off though.

White 2000 Chevy Astro Cargo van with fat tires on chrome. MPG 17-20
My backup, and gas saver is my little 93 Escort GT. MPG 28-30 I bought it new and put @ 200K miles on it then parked it as a backup.

Got to get the brake pads replaced in the morning before I go out next week. After 130,000 miles the brake light stays illuminated. I need to be safe.

Thanks a million guys.. I appreciate the response! Since I live in a pretty small rural area, I'll be driving quite a bit to get to some larger, more populated areas for business. Just trying to figure out which vehicle would be best suited for the job. Thanks again, have a great day........ Huck.

BMW R850R motorbike when the weather is good enough and I am only doing screen repair. The rest of the time anything I have in stock because I buy and sell a few cars as well. Those of us that do work for dealers will often find they are happy to sell you the odd car or two at trade prices.
