I'm not. I bought this thing in NorCal and brought it home to Indy last winter. Was an adventure in itself.

Bought it because it was way cheaper than buying anything else and then paying to add a rear locker. Factory rear air locker FTW.

I work from home so I don't need to drive daily, but this is the go to daily car/grocery getter and backup school bus. I use it for my commute into the city as needed. It also has the child seat in the back to take the kiddo to school/back.

Been enjoying my daily lately, though I wish it got better mileage. Missing my 6-spd pano roof VW sportwagen TDI, but couldn't pass up the VW buyback offer.

Stook has been lowered a bit after this photo.

(I think it looked better when it was less lowered. The front wheel gap/well looks funny at the angle of the picture anyway.)

Wife's car is a CX-9:



(tow vehicle lurking behind the CX-9).

Lately I've been driving the FD to work a lot though:

All year. This darn thing has been so reliable, i have no reason to get rid of it really. Plus when it does have issues, the parts are cheap and readily available.
