    I might consider an Ibishu Kashira. Just remove the rear seats, and it becomes a cargo van that can carry anything I need it to. And, it is more luxurious than a covet.

    ETK's fall apart way too easily.
    Used Kashiras are going for 1,000 to 5,000 for really nice examples.

    Great news everyone- I've moved to Firwood! This is my house-

    If you're wondering why there's a Gm in the other driveway, it's because this is a duplex. My neighbor has the bottom floor, and I get the top. There's two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen and a living room on each floor.
    Anyway, the next morning I was driving to the sawmill to get some wood to repair a desk, when a black ETK 800 slams into me. Thankfully, the roads were pretty empty, but someone stopped to help.

    Luckily, it wasn't an Agent. It was a raging Karen who insisted that I hit HER, instead of the other way around. She was the one going 20 MPH over the speed limit, just saying.
    After I sorted out some legal stuff at the police station, I went on BeamList for a new car- and bought a Gavril Roamer XT V8 4WD in Cream.

    about etk-i's, both are correct. in europe they where built to last, but due to a manufacturing error, the cars in the us fell apart rather easily
    i have worked all day on the pessima to put in my old parts, and strip the paint:

    So now I just need to find a Kashira. I can’t really find any in the Car Selling website so I don’t really know how i’m gonna get one.

    I also made a $50 profit selling the covet.

    Well once you replace the battery ($150?) it’ll run for a long time.

    I'm surprised you're having this much trouble finding one for sale. Sure they have serious rust issues, especially in places along the snow belt like Firwood, but it still seems like every other family in Firwood owns at least one Kashira.
