Yeah, I had planned to drive that baby into the grave but things change. I'm a pensioner Todd, running an aging 4wd was killing me. And the lack of power steering has been an issue for a number of years now. Both my shoulders are totally stuffed and they ain't getting any better. On the blacktop pushing into a head/cross wind is painful to put it mildly and up here every drive is a long one.

I'll be back in a 4wd asap but might have to go 'conventional' for a while. Been driving 4wds for four decades so it's a huge change for me.

Yeah I must admit for long distance stuff a more modern vehicle has plenty of perks. Hopefully you can find something that fits the bill soon.
