I really think everybody is just trying to help. Don't really mean to piss all over your ideas. The opinion and the trouble go hand in hand. Some of us had that same dream with our own versions of the same cars. I think Will Y said something about being stranded and broke.

If a car can't get me where I'm going and back with little or no drama, it's junk to me. Chose the one you like and go for it. I hope your experience ends better than mine did.
