First of all, my name is Ben and im from illinois. I drive an 05 f150 that gets like 14 mpg... so I have been browsing craigslist for a fuel efficient vehicle. Last thurs I found her. A 1993 geo metro 2 door hatchback with only 3 cylinders! This bad boy was only an hour away and it was listed for 950 bucks. So I go to look at it, its in hreat shape and hardly any rust. I check the odo and its only got 68k miles! It had been sitting for the past 10 years so the tires were dry rotted. Cost me 225 for those. Needed a new battery, that was 60 bucks. It also needed a map sensor and a door handle, got those free at a junk yard. It is safe to say im in love with this car This is my truck (the gulper) ![]() This is my car (the sipper) ![]() |

Welcome to the forum, brichter14 ![]() Very nice looking truck, and a fun car that will save $$ Quite a change of scenery driving closer to the road, eh? I switched from an Excursion to a Metro....and very glad I did.

Wow, you got an amazing deal. Even with the tires and the other minor issues it was having, no one up north here would let some like that go for under $2,000. It's crazy how much people ask for Metro's these days, though honestly, not all that surprising; they're well worth it. Well, welcome aboard! I'm quite jealous of your steal. Enjoy your new ride! |
