I use this amigo for hunting.   I used to have Nissan Frointer.   That was six year ago.  When I was working at Firestone,  something bad had happen.  A  metal went thru my right eye.  So Yea now I Have poor eye sight.   I had quit bow hunting.  sold my truck.  my life had changed.  Till few years later. I got myself into drag racing.  I had been swapping engine on Honda accord.   Then went to CRX with Honda prelude engine swap.  I had learned a lot of doing this stuff.   Till  I met this gal.  I started to talk about my past.  I forgot how much I miss bow hunting.  SO I got myself a left hand bow.   well Things got a little tough.  I drive a 93 honda del sol.  which is not a great car to get out in the hunting spot.  Yes I got stuck few times.  had to walk and ask farmer to pull me out.  or kept asking friend to borrow their truck.   SO This is where i got my amigo.   so I want to make sure it runs great.  no trouble.   So I decided to swap toyota engine and transmission in it.   Had been driving around for a year now with no trouble.
