thanks for your thoughtful input, definatly worth considering,,, any 5T I might get would be a late 80's or newer.. i can do regular low level maint
if I could find one at reasonable price id get a unimog or Pinzgauer! I LOVE those drive line/ diff. systems!!
A3 was a consideration! but I hear they are much slower? and the motor is problematic?

Now however, the situation has changed and I do not HAVE to run WMO/ so I can afford diesel.
On a side...
Thanks for more info!

What happened.. I made too sharp of a turn in a very large parking lot in Hawks Prarie on Martin Way about 16:00p between the Winco and (not so) Great Floors.
the front tires dug into the...
