Super Justy
I'm sorry - this week has just really shown me what an amazing little car the Justy is.
Yesterday our power was out for 6.5 hours, and we were concerned it would go out again, so I decided to get some more firewood. Where I found it was north of Ann Arbor, back on a dirt road that really hadn't seen a plow. I'll abbreviate the story. The Justy had to haul a quarter cord of wood. Uphill. In snow. BACKWARDS.

Look up in the shy... It's a bird, it's a plane, it's SUPER JUSTY;
naw, it's just a flying squirrel. By day SUPER JUSTY is a mild manered game code writer disguised as Mr Pockets...but should the need arise; he is able to carry 1/4 cord of wood up snow covered trails backwards. Is he able to bend steel in his bare hands? Can he stop bullets with his chest? Can he leap tall buildings in a single bound? Can he see through brick walls (EEK..pervert!) ? Can he uphold Truth, Justice and the American way? Naw; he can't do any of these things.. but he can say C V V T real fast 10 times and knows what it stands for!!

BUT it only costs me $7 in gas a week instead of $20+ for the SVX. Tires are $25 apiece, compared to $120+ for the SVX. I don't have to worry about where I park it. I wouldn't dare haul firewood in the SVX. It's a different car, but loveable just the same.

ok i can accept that.
my friend wants to take his two door awd justy and paint the subaru wrc blue and put wide fenders on it so it can hold bigger tires. he basically wants it to look something like the P1.
can you believe this retard?? oh and i am completely serious. i can understand your appreciation for simplicity that works but this guy is going a little far.

i know you are being humorous.......
but on a serious note there is a huge difference between modifying a SVX and a Justy. you see the SVX actually has performance potential.

How-to, you're so full of crap. What kinda dumb explanation is that? Get your head out of your butt and speak english! Sheesh, what a whacko!
NOTE: To those who are unaware, I am also "How-to." I have to sign on under that name in order to add things to the "How-to" locker. I had posted the previous message, forgetting that I was still signed on as "How-to." Please forgive the oversight and the subsequent faux flaming that ensued.

Pocket Justy
Mr. Pockets is as fond of his Justy as I am of my Swift. I just wish it was AWD too! I have been carrying sacks of wood pellets for our stove in mine, but I haven't tried it BACKWARDS yet. Blizzaks get it through the snow just fine...I also laugh as I pass gas pumps... Don
