    My 2002 has rusted to death, runs great, only 120,000 miles. Would like to keep for parts if I can find another to buy. Will travel to pick up.

    What would be the max distance you'd be willing to travel? :whistle:

    I saw one in FL that I was considering - that probably would be the max, 1500 miles or so. There is a 2001 in VA that looks good, but Carfax report shows that the battery (12 volt) was replaced 8 times- I'm wondering if that is just because it possibly sat without being driven often and battery died.(Low mileage car) Seems weird though.
