OK . .  thing is, this one belongs to a lady and has low kms, since it is a turbo, I have never owned a turbo, just wanted to know, apart from the usual, what else should I look for? She's in NO hurry to sell it, but, will sell to me and I am in no hurry to purchase until end of June or mid-July

2.3Liter Turbo . . .

I really dont like SUVs . . but need one due to bicycle and dogs . .  If I could get a station wagon, that would be the ideal car for me

As long as you don't add a bigger turbo and boost it to the moon, it won't blow up. The blocks tend to crack around 500hp because of a spot between the middle two cylinders that has less support. So your SUV drifting dreams may be dashed.
Besides that, should be fine.

No... it's just like the make the beast with two backsing conveyor.

Doesn't work. Kiss

The sides aren't higher from the floor of the bed...just higher from the ground.

Except the trucks now DO have higher sides than before (and yes, they are also higher off the ground). Check the bed depth of trucks from before the mid 2000s and now. They are deeper so they can claim larger cargo capacity...

It will say Sony on the radio. Grin

I doubt a base vehicle would have it.

Any vehicle with SYNC will have a USB port for media, and Bluetooth to connect a phone.
