So it looks like tomorrow I will be meeting with a guy to check out one another's rigs for a possible trade deal.
Going out would be my 02 Disco, lift, tires, and a center locker. 145k miles.
coming in would be a 98 sport and cash
higher in the miles at 213k, and its a 98 so no 3.5 just the 3.0, BUT it does have the rear locker, and its basically a one owner car. The person I am working with said his mother bought it new and then he got it when she got something else recently. no idea how old this guy is, could be a kid, could be my age, hard to say.
I think if we can agree on terms I am going to make the trade, but a little nudging from the monty group here might help me make the decision as well.
I know I will be loosing a bit in size, but the gains in not only mpg but also price at the pump (premium vs regular), the lower cost of maintaining the car, and the extra bit of rear seat leg room for my kids just might all be worth loosing a bit of cargo room.
any thoughts/opinions/advice welcome
