Kirk and anyone else can tell you, go get a RELIABLE Daily Driver that is good on gas, THEN, go look for a project car. Theres this principle/equation that I have come to formulate about after-market modified cars: the more performance oriented the car becomes, the less reliable it becomes. Its an inverse relationship. With gas over $4.00/gallon for premium, Id say, save some money in gas, insurance, and the cost of the car, go find yourself a reasonable DD.

yall just dont understand, im not just gonna drive around in a pos 4cyl honda or something, my life revolves around cars, carshows on mondays, dragraces on fridays, some mud on the weekends, i cant ball in a dam jetta, im gotta have fun in whatever i get, so if its a car, its gonna be a manual rwd. if i get a truck its almost certaintly gonna be 4x4. its just how its gotta be.

5.0 fuel injected mustangs can get 18-20+mpg when taken care of, which is triple the gas mileage i am getting. i can afford to drive something like that, but this bronco is just feckin rediculous.

i have been thinking, and if i dont get a car, ill get another 4x4, im looking at getting a yota or something similar, very capable offroad, and descent on gas, etc. but ill find out what ima do after bronco is sold

Get a toyota pickup with a 22R or 22RE motor. They're really good offroad, and they're pretty dang good on gas too, as long as you dont put ridiculously big tires on them.
Or, if you're resourceful enough, you might even be able to find a diesel landcruiser, which is amazing on gas and amazing offroad. Though, the chances of finding one of those is a little slim. (not completely impossible, though)
