A friend in high school used daddy’s money and had a new D2. I just loved the looks of it and that was all it took for me. Started with a 96 d1-99.5 D2(d2 led me here) until now 04 d2 and wife had a lr3 now a lr4. Got here on the disease too
Bought a 96 in 2007 sight unseen for $2100 while I was looking for a Land Cruiser. 240k later I bought a 94 D1 in 2010. Still driving it daily, now by my kiddo. Got a 2004 D2 in 2020, anlso a daily by the Mrs. My other kiddo wants that one. Also have a 94 LWB that is more of a storage locker in my garage. It’s been off the road for a while now. But some day. Lol
It was the clear winner, back in 006, in my search for a compact SUV, seating 5 with room for up to 7 in a pinch..that I could actually work on and that could handle tight in-town U-turns and Sierra snow...
‘94 NAS 90 bought sight unseen from a retired couple on the opposite coast. Found it in early 1997 on cars2000.com. It was a site that basically published local listings. No pics just basic descriptions and personal contact into. Seller had no idea what the internet was but agreed to take pictures, develop the film and mail them to me. They arrived a week later and I was blown away. 8k original miles, $22k. A month later it arrived at my house on a flatbed.
Bought a '98 D1 because I wanted something with 4WD. Daily drove it for a long time, then turned it into a trail truck. After that.....
- '96 for parts
- '96 from my brother that I daily drove
- '95 as a project that never took off
- '94 that I still have and am rebuilding
