who says the SVX can't haul big loads?

i may be a knucklehead, but i'm a crafty knucklehead.

Hehehe, two years ago I pulled a Toyoya Tacoma outta a ditch

It was great... All the guys there thought I was on crack, " Common man, a sports car isn't gonna help here" is what they were saying... I said give me a chance... They hooked it up and I pulled him right out!!!! Hehehehe, There were so many open mouths after that... They were amazed that a sports car could do that... HEhehe It was great!!!

Now if you went through the ditch after pulling him out, then I'd be impressed.

After having built a new house over the past two years, (I played general contractor), I can truthfully state that you can carry 16 10' 2x6's inside the SVX with the rear seat(s) folded down and still close the trunk lid (!!)

It was my trusty 'default' 'truck' during construction. (Helped to have the all-wheel-drive during the 'muddy driveway' stage, too.) Since then, though, we've 'inherited' my deceased father-in-law's 'beaten' '95 Ford F150, so the SVX doesn't have to do 'double-duty' anymore.

HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS (AND GALS)!!

that was a rolling tool cart with a built in power strip and a place to put battery chargers for cordless tools.

toys are cool.
