I paid $0 for mine and drove it back and forth to work (also a 50 mile round trip) everyday for 4 years.

Sadly, western NY winters took it's toll on the truck so it was time to move on.

That's an odd one with a 3.1 engine. Most Bonny's came with a 3.8 (later called the 3800) V6.

Cool. I have a soft spot for Chevy trucks. Bet the gas mileage tanks when you strap the Fisher blade on the front of that.

My daily driver (when I'm not plowing or towing) is a 94 Plymouth Colt. Paid $200, gets 40 mpg.

When I plow or tow I'm driving a 80 Chevy K20 with a 454 and an 8' Western plow.

+1 on the payments. I own all 10 (or so) of my cars/trucks outright.

It's actually 3.8 or should be 3.8 ...It was a good car up until 1995ish I think.

My bro had a 1989 bonny, lasted him 240k miles ...the new one he got is garbage though (98 I believe), plastic manifold, engine and tranny replaced under 100k don't make a mistake he made thinking because older bonnies were good new ones are good as well...


I’ll post my jeeps picture in 2 weeks or so:)

Mike the Mass winters are taking it's toll on this one also, I used to drive it almost everyday as I just got the 4X4 a few month's ago, The bed is starting to rot fast and there's a few spot's on the frame over the rear wheels that are starting to Rot so I run her once a week to work just to keep it lubricated and basically use it as my Wheelbarrow with a motor! lol..Yes Mike 3.8 I'm sorry bro I had a brain fart!, I shoulda known that. :confused:

Usually don't post pics of my cars but since I just took a pic over the weekend.

My summer joy at Shannonville race track. Dropped by for a lapping day but didn't participate myself.

And the winter monster. No, not the AMG E55 on the right. The rusted civic on the left :P

Absolutely love both cars. The integra is precise, quick, and tuned for racing. The civic is light and in such bad shape that I don't mind hitting a few snow banks (pic is from winter driving school).

What I'm about to find out though is whether the bass hard case will fit into the integra's trunk... I haven't a feeling it won't. I have to fold the seats down in the civic. I'm hoping I won't with the teg.

I work at home and only own 2 wheel Vehicles. In addition to the Hayabusa, I also have an older Buell. It's never ran properly since new therefore it never leaves the garage. 3 HD dealers and no one can figure out the problem(s). It looks like it just came from the showroom. I'm thinking of making a lawn ornament out of it :rollno:

My much outfitted Busa..............

The Buell isn't worthy of taking out the camera :spit:

Been there, done that! Actually I have a guy from MMI that is going to replace the entire wiring harness, charging and ignition system. He's wired $100K choppers so I know he can handle the Muell. When thats complete I'll probably sell it. To be honest, since I got the Busa last spring, I forgot it was in the corner of my shop :p Never missed it for a second.
