I'm currently car-less, but considering to get a mid-size Diesel pickup. Since I enjoy off-roading, I'd like to fit the pickup with an adjustable suspension to allow me to get a lower drag while driving it on road without a permanent compromise to cross-country abilities, but aftermarket ones had been outlawed in Brazil. Also just waiting for the warranty of my dad's Subaru Impreza to expire and then the old man is gonna allow me to do some mods, such as a Diesel conversion (dad also likes it), a single-arm windshield wiper, a custom front bumper and some under-body protection which would also have some positive effects on the fuel-efficiency. I'm not discarding the possibility to replace front fenders, engine hood, rear hatch and doors with fiberglass ones.
