Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

  • Mister "Standard 5-speed transmission" was kind of a big deal in the era. An S-10 or Ranger came standard with only 4 forward gears.
  • MRF 95 T-Bird That sliding rear window is salvageable since it’s a universal flexible unit which fits the other small trucks of the era.
  • 2manyvettes At a Tesla supercharger is near my house, I encountered a Nissan Leaf that pulled in and two hapless individuals discovered that they could not recharge there. Where I live, there is one charging station outside the county courthouse downtown and two more in the parking lot in a shopping center, but I do not know what kind they are. I do not know if these individuals ever found more elctrons. An object lesson in the nutball push for EV's.
  • Kwik_Shift_Pro4X I'd still be torn between the hatch and sedan.
  • TheEndlessEnigma Tassos, just wanted to let you know, this is a Junk Yard Find NOT Used Car of the Day.
