Hello everyone! I have been on the Geo Forum since July of this year getting tips and helpful ideas. Finally able to post on the Forum. (phone sucks) bought a new laptop. Ill tell you a little about how I came into my Geo. I drive 172mi. everyday back and forth to work sometimes 6 days a week! Was driving my 99 Dodge 2500 gasser. Needless to say 800 bucks a month in gas! Started to look for something else to drive and haul a few hand tools. My oldest son has a friend that was a detailer at a local dealership, had heard he bought a Geo for the gas mileage it was a trade in. He saved it from the crusher, the dealership was just going to take it to the local bone yard. The crazy thing was it only had 62 thou on the car documented! Dumb asses! He had it for a few months and knew I was looking. He moved closer to his work and TA DUH! I am a proud owner of a Baby Geo. 64 thousand miles! It has a few things body wise that Ill need to fix IE drivers door, rear corner panel, passenger fender. I've had it since the first week of Aug. and I have done a few things to it already. Oh and by the way its saved me over 600 bucks a month in gas last month! Anything that's saves me that much money in a month deserves to be fixed up. Love the car and the Forum. |

Welcome to the family! That was a sweet find. Someone upstairs must have taken a shine to you!! You'll never be done fixing it, then "fixing it up", but that's part of the fun. These things are incredibly thrifty, parts are still available, and you don't have to worry about seeing 3 more just like in the shopping center parking lot! |

Stick around and you might be able to graduate from Geo nerd to Geo geek, maybe even rise to Geo Guru ...

You have to post them some where like photobucket first, then you can place them here. Welcome to the forum. |

Welcome to your new forum, Otey13! Great first picture posting. Yep, documented miles. And I was just telling some friends about Casa Bonita.

You can aspire to become a GEO Maven, but only one has ever risen to that level. I'll not reveal who, but his initials are JM and he has a problem with flip flops. |

Welcome to the best place on the internet. I'm a displaced native of Colorado Springs living in Virginia for the last 14 years. I hear that the Mile High state is really high now
