    The ute story is great. My realistic dream car was always a Nissan Skyline as a family vagon conversion or at least a Subaru vagon deal but never got around it in Europe, life fly by fast and by today's standards I got sick of plenty of things and one of which is legal ownership of a vehicle. So I gave up on cars and with that my dram car too ... props to those who make it happen and who manage to get something they actually want and enjoy.
    I have a Lada Niva as a hobby car that I ride only on closed roads and offroad events other then that reality have different plans for me to own a legal car that I actually want, that dream is sadly gone.

    also, no, the holy grail L-body is the Corsica Hatchback, they only made like 5000 of them. Though, I will give, a manual, and a digital dash is indeed a rare beast in the L-body world. Even back when I was driving a 92 Corsica in the early oughts walking civics who thought v-tec meant something (spoiler: to a properly motivated 3.1l v6, it doesnt 🤣).

Hoovie gets it via his dad’s coat tails a la franchisees. We get the backstory on most everyone I can think of except Mr. Bell unless I missed it.
