OK... Probe is going for sale to make room for another car (not really worth much more) and the bike is going into the shop next week to clean the carbs since it has been sitting for 6 years.

I bought a 1993 Plymouth Sundance Duster 3.0V6 5-speed sedan. Everything works on it and the interior and body are good, but the paint is about what a 1993 car looks like so it's going to the paint shop as soon as I get estimates and get the best deal on paint etc...

So till the Probe sells, I own a Chevy, a Ford and a Dodge (Plymouth).

Wow, you couldn't find anything better than a K-car? Enjoy, I guess...

elim · 06-19-2006, 02:53 PM

Mike wtf seriously. haha

AMRAAM4 · 06-19-2006, 03:08 PM

what the fock point does it make to get rid of the Probe and buy a POS 1993 PLYMOUTH DUSTER??

It's like saying: Well, I feel relieved that the Doctor said my skin cancer is all but cured, but now I have MS

ViperGTSR · 06-19-2006, 03:14 PM

yea, but he does this to himself, here's a better example.

i feel relieved that my skin cancer is all cured, now who wants to go sit out in the sun with me!!

you just punish yourself more and more mike...

Braves299 · 06-19-2006, 03:14 PM

No... the probe has issues that the Sundance does not.

Aw hell, I'd laugh too.

It's not like I am showering in money ya know. I have more things to worry about than a perfect shiny car, and I don't want 2 car payments. It's better than some beater Tercel or Civic. @ least it has some nuts and it's paid for, has new tires, everything works.

This is just a beater. Cut me some slack.

Besides... the bike is mint.

Worth more than the car.

Correct. Being a Ford is the main one.

P-Body, not a K car. 2500lbs, 171Ft.Lbs of torque @ 2000RPM, better than a 1993 Civic for power and runs great.

I like it, and I have the balls to admit I bought it.

elim · 06-19-2006, 04:40 PM

please do not quote the power and torque of a 1993 plymouth duster

ViperGTSR · 06-19-2006, 05:02 PM

i hate it. i think i have something like 117ft lbs of torque

bigbenSC · 06-19-2006, 07:05 PM

Not like it's getting a prestine paint job either, just enough to make it look nicer/sell in a year or so. 300 Bucks.

It's not like it's a rusted out pile of crap paint job on it now, just faded with no dents.

BTW it's 13 years old not 16.

GrandAmGT1996 · 06-20-2006, 09:30 PM

3.0 v6 5speed, just like my one friends. Except his is a 2 door...and that car will roast the **** outta the tires

. Your duster is faster then my GA...and we will leave it at that.

GTPguy99 · 06-23-2006, 11:35 AM

Yep but the Probe is going for sale soon. I don't want 3 cars even if 2 out of the 3 are paid for.

teambeechstreet · 06-28-2006, 06:24 PM
