I may give the Golf a look but I'd probably want to keep my fj since the golf is on the small side.Quote:

Too Tall for the win. I'll use that list to narrow my search.
Don't taunt with things we can't have.

Apparently GM thought we'd be better off with the Chevy Trax.
Slightly OT but a couple vehicles owned by family members are going on Bring a Trailer soon:
My brother's mid 80s FJ55 daily driver and
My dad's '79 Super Beetle with 2500 miles on it. (Yes you read that right)
Folks will fight over that Beetle.Quote:
