The Samurai is interesting. The only ones I have found have high miles (one advertised in Prescott Valley with 11,000 miles really has 116,000 miles). I have too many hobbies now and really don't want to rebuild a 4X4. Looked at a '99 Isuzu advertised as having a manual tranny, but had an auto. The front ground clearance was inadequate, too. I would like something with a bit more ground clearance, that will run the back roads around here with minimum modifications, does not need a lot of work, and gets better than about 25 mpg on the highway. Maybe it does not exist.
