Turbos are where it's at if you want to go fast. One day I will find another Turbo Firefly. Don't get me wrong, I know THAT one won't be fast, but it's the principle lol, those things are hard to find, and it would be fun to see what kind of FE you could get out of one. Having driven naturally aspirated 1.0L Suzuki clones, I have to say that for me personally sometimes I need a little more push than they offer, I think a turbo'd one would be fun to horse around with.

I like Previas as well. They are comfortable to drive, and have a huge amount of space in the back. And after seeing that pic of the pickup conversion, I am tempted to turn the Prev 5 speed I use for a storage locker into one. Someone get me a big bottle of Jack Daniels and a chop saw lol!
