In highschool, in the 80s, a classmate got one brand new. Extremely contrasted to a dual range brat with a thumpy ea81 he owned...A rich kid, he beat the crap out of both, back then, they were nearly brand new. odoms much below 50k, let alone 100. Needless to say, he got attention from his car driving antics. The only thing in common between the similar sized engines was the brat could 4x4 over a pile and the yugo stayed on top or else...near death experience imminent.
Every motorhead after cheap mileage learned a lesson from that guy...it still stands today, in gigantic scale...rather bizarre, and prophetic..

look around.
