Time for them to go! I loved my Rabbit truck, but in March I was rear ended by an uninsured driver, and because I only had liability on my VW I was never able to get anything taken care of. The guy turned into a ghost and its not going anywhere. Sucks, but Ive learned....
The silver one still runs and drives fine, its just bent up pretty good. It was never officially totaled and has a clean title. I bought the brown one with a blown motor (its currently in the back of the truck, probably never stands a chance of running ever again) to swap everything from the silver one over to, but I need to be honest about it and know that I will not get to it for a long time. Brown one is straight!
Sweet little trucks. Not a lot running around anymore, but the ones that are still out there get a lot of looks and a lot of MPGs! Mine is a diesel and I get right at 44mpg every tank - doesn't matter where Im driving, how Im driving it, or what Ive got in the bed. Not the fastest thing on the road, but its one of the most unique "trucks" on it. Im asking $4,200 for them both. I have trailers and can haul the brown one anywhere within reason, even SoCal if you'll cover the fuel and lunch. Silver one is 100% drivable but I would not recommend driving it TOO far, mostly because theres no AC and it will take forever.

Cool little car-truck things that I may have unintentionally gotten myself addicted to. This new one came with four or five motors, a very clean interior, spare set of wheels, and is straight. I didnt want to swap the good from the bad over to the new good on the last two, but here I am, taking a blown motor out of the latest one only to hopefully replace it with a turbo diesel from an 84 Jetta thats currently sitting on a pallet right next to the thing.... This could easly become a topic in a forum thats not meant for this kind of topic, but maybe we can get it moved over to the tech section and I can keep those of you who care updated! in the mean time, heres a few pics and a cool little article that was posted recently.
