O wow already 3 pages, lol! I think my question has been answered pretty well, thanks for the input!

I think V6s have taking a beating in this thread. I know someone who has a 94 camry that has a V6 with 185000 miles and still hauls ***, but my jeep with 175000 (I6 of course) hauls even more .

Yeah I'm not a big honda fan either. I see too many with ricers on em and primer seems to be the "cool" paint job to have now....
