Ok maybe not an eco-car exactly, but it kind of is, and it is such a weird combo that I had to put it up. Any of the following options are not really rare on their own, but I have never seen them all in one place before.

Full load Yukon with leather (no big deal). 2 door (hard to find, up here anyway), 4x4, barn doors in the back (now THAT'S hard to find lol). And it's a diesel!! (I have only ever seen a few diesels in these trucks ever up here) This thing must have been a special order, it's too weird to be naturally occurring. If it isn't a special order, then a room full of monkeys with typewriters somewhere just finished writing Hamlet. If I had the space/facilities/time to make biodiesel, I would have bought this thing on sight.



Oh, and if you ever see on of these style Tahoes / Yukons or a half ton pickup from the same style, and want to be able to tell real quick if it's a diesel, look at the front bumper. You can see on this one the square holes on either side of the front license plate holder, only the diesels have those. It allowed more airflow to the rad. Kinda like how only the new Ecoboost powered F150s have the front license plate set to one side instead of being centered. Man I spend too much time looking at the front of trucks apparently ha ha


I saw an original paint '92 Civic CX 5 speed too, but it was a little crusty in the back. Not bad, but not worth buying, up here anyway. Didn't bother with a pic. I think it sold for $500 but I wasn't really paying attention.
