While shopping for a used car I found somebody selling a 1989 Toyota Hilux for cheap. Do I buy it? (hexbear.net)

I'll be the coolest leftist in town but my partner will be extremely mad because they think I'm looking for a RAV4.

Tell your partner they get first pick between gunning and driving

The top gear torture test of the Hilux was pretty good

Not convincing enough, unfortunately. Earth, water, and fire couldn't kill it, but my partner is concerned about attacks from Air Nomads (or the Avatar themself!)

I had an '84 Toyota sr5 as my first car and it fuckin ruled. I only got rid of it cause I needed better gas mileage but I gave it to a family member who still uses it today as a ranch truck-- so it gets used hard. Still going strong at over 280k miles. It's a beast and was so easy to work on, extremely easy even for inexperienced person who is willing to watch some youtube videos
