Civic and Escort wagons are both pretty old by now.  But there's plenty of decent Focus wagons still out there going for peanuts.

Or you could try to find one of the seven Mitsubishi Lancer wagons they supposedly sold in America back in 2004.

Look at how fucking pimp that kid is. You could be that pimp, Nick. You could be, if you had a Vista Cruiser.

In a town of only 5K people, I was surprised to find that there are two of those Toyota vans. Considering they were buy-backs at one time, there shouldn't be that many around.

I thought only the Nissan Vans were buybacks

Nick, buy the family Truckster. It doesn't meet your mileage requirements, but its mechanically solid and could use a respite from winter salt.

Then, I'll buy the OJ/Nuge mobile and make everybody think I'm over compensating.

Is it under $2000 $1000?

There was a lot of problems with the vans, that added up, but never actually killed it....well, it did have an overheating problem that blew head gaskets. When I was with Toyota East in 1990, we had one of the buy-backs as a service shuttle. I loved that van. But, Toyota had already started to restrict parts availability making it a poor choice, and I was into air-cooled VWs at the time and my money went down that drain instead.

Secret or soft recalls were numerous back then. I think the 24-hour news cycle and social media has all but eliminated those now. When I was with Honda in the 1980s, Accords had a terrible water leak into the cabin between the body and right front fender. Civics prior to 1980 and again around 1986 went through head gaskets like crazy as Honda tried different designs and materials to stop the problem. Late seventies Accords had corrosion problems on the front fenders, even in dry climates--rusting through in less than two or three years. Benz 190Es were terrible and had like twenty recalls all at the same time. It would take two days to complete the list. Now people recall them as a great little ride.

I might be a bit of a douchebag, but Im not willing to embrace that douchiness to that degree; and I'm not a rich douche either.

Yeah the entire idea of that vehicle is douche .  I would get a regular tractor and a flatbed trailer  if I was a rich semi douche .

Yeah, they were leaf sprung until like 2009 with the new boxy generation.
