went offroading again today in the tercel. It was wet out so we dove into some deep water, almost getting stuck lol. And we went through some tall grass, over a ton of steep hills, going through many dirt pits, etc. It was a blast!! It made it up a steep hill in 2 wheel drive even! But we ran over some small logs and it broke the front grille on the car, and the right signal light on the bumper. But it still runs :P I should be getting another daily driver this weekend (91 civic hatchback) so my friends and i can work more on the tercel

It looks like you had some fun with your Tercel and it came home with a broken grille. I would probably get terrified if my grille broke off or something. Since I'm not old enough to get a license, all the driving I can do is off-road. Even some OHV trails requires a license! This sucks because my dad will have to drive me around 80 miles or more to get to one of these places, anyway when I get mine fixed I'll go out for a couple of hours and really get to know the car finally. In September I'll be able to get a driving permit and until March I'll be able get a license to drive it almost anywhere! Hooray for the almighty Tercel 4WD!

Maybe you should start taking some parts off of that car...so it will be running in Sept? ;)
Give a boy a gun-give a biatch a cell phone-and pretty soon you almost got yourself a police state.

You and 3ACPower need to get together and race or something?

Then again....MAYBE NOT! :blink:
