Howsabout a mid-80s Mercedes diesel station wagon? I've seen 'em for
under 2
grand US, they run on diesel or vegetable oil/biodiesel, and if you
change the
oil and don't run 'em dry, they are good for at least 3-400K miles with
little
other maintenance.

there's a consideration......actually, given the economic pressure on auto
sales, I might be able to get a good value on a 4wd(one of the smaller
ones), that I can then use down on the shore for beach access......Time
will tell, but if history is any guide, I will end up with some
dilapidated piece of crap that oddly remains functional despite zero
amenitiesg

What you need is something in a bronze color - it won't show the dust from
those gravel roads as fast...

Maybe four captains chairs with a rear sofa that folds down for an emergency
bed when you arrive streamside a couple of hours early.

Front and rear heat/ac..front and rear radio/CD player...flat panel TV with
a VC player...leather interior....tow package up to 7,500 pounds...

...it's like tying flies Tom....it's what Gallager said...."You got to have
style!"
