Would you buy this?














1978 Toyota FJ Landcruiser.

You see, the thing is, if you´re vacationing in Ecuador, you really don´t need a car. Public transportation will, eventually, get you anywhere you need. But, if you´re a climber, wishing to visit remote regions, with only a weekend to do so, public transport begins to wear on you.

So, do we risk buying a car almost as old as ourselves, but known to be as solid as a tank? Asking price, $5,800. What would you do?

Oh, and as I´m researching these vehicles, this nifty shot popped up on wikipedia, just imagine the fun we could have...

Oh, wait, I´m about to add another picture of what I could do with it. I think this will really sell it....

Buy it . . . it will draw attention away from the Karate Kid bandana that you adorn in your previous post.

Buy it!! Git-r-Done! Show us your roots. If you do buy it you have to rip all the sleeves off your t-shirt.
