Well that stinks. So how bad is the Jimmy? If it's just sheetmetal damage I would say now is the time for an Hombre clip swap and then mod it for aero. I think of all the s-series trucks the Hombres had the cleanest lines in the front. I have only seen one Blazer/jimmy with an Hombre clip but man it looked good.

But in any case the potential for better fuel economy is definitely going to be so much higher with the Swift. The 4.3 v6 is just a pig no matter what you do with it.
