Thanks for the advice guys ...think I'll keep the '01 Toy for a little while
longer and maybe buy another Jeep CJ as a for-fun vehicle. The total cost of
both vehicles equals the Prelude and the Jeep can come in handy once winter
hits plus they are easier to fix as opposed to a potentially poorly-modified
Prelude.

Cheers!
