    Don't count me with the haters , I see the advantages and dis... of each . If money was not an issue certainly a pickup can be superior as I have talked to many a diesel owner saying 24 25 mpg is what they get ,
    I had pushed my van to the limits and it did it . But for sure there were times a auto accident, I would of had an assortment of things taking my head off .

    Not sure if there is any perfect scrap auto for all the scenarios.
    But to day I picked up some scrap out of a Field that went down a grassy path, my mini would not of pulled it off.
    YET when I look at the collection of stock I have ,the pickup will have a hard act to follow

    Lets start with 1200 trips to the yard no matter how nasty it looked never broke down I figure 80,000 miles of use
    Chevy venture purchased with 99,000 best car ever = brakes tires thats all !!
