I traded in the Neon after 2 of the tires were stolen off of it last week. I'm sick of having a car that's a target for theives. I got a smoking deal on this 2004 Rodeo, and I'm friggin' happy about it!
They paid off my loan I still had on the Neon, and we negotiated down to $17k from a list of $21k for this car. It's an '04, with 13,000 miles on it.
It's a 3.5L V6, supposedly 250 hp, and gets 22 mpg highway/18-19 mpg street. It also has something called "Direct Injection" that makes it more fuel efficient w/o sacrificing hp.
So, technical mumbo jumbo aside, I once again have a vehicle that can actually transport my guitar and amp equipment.
Oh, and I'm having wheel locks installed on Monday. No one's taking these.

That was your Neon? Sorry dude...if I hadn't of sold the wheels for drug money already I'd give them back.
Seriously, nice buy!
BTW, it's great to have you back on the board, Ken.
This was my neon getting towed to the insurance company. Kinda sad watching it get towed away. The funny thing was, they weren't even rims, they stole the stock wheels and tires. Unbelieveable.
and also, are neons notorious for this or something?

In my freaking carport with me sleeping in my townhouse right above it. Unbelieveable they didn't wake me up taking the tires off.
Yes, Neons and Civics are cars that are easy and relatively cheap to customize (and have a lot of interchangeable parts), so yeah my Neon was a major target, and this was the second time in about 14 months that it's been messed with by some hoodlum.

I recently (well almost a year ago) went from a Civic to a Rendevouz (SUV) - I love it! I love the room and sitting up higher (I am vertically challenged; so, it's nice to loom above others for a change)--I do miss my gas mileage, though, especially lately!
As you guys have probably guessed, but it seems like most everyone is a regular, I am a newbie! In fact this is my very first post--ever! I'm not sure if that makes me really far behind the times or just cool, because I have a life (just kidding)! I've read several posts and it seems like it is a nice group--please be gentle with me as I learn the ropes!
Have a great weekend!

HOw bad is your neighborhood that someone has the time to steal all four tires off of your car? I mean you should check out if NASCAR was in town and if the pit boys were in your area at all. Honestly, that is bad...

2 tires, actually, but the point is still fairly valid. I live in Tempe.
