Thinking about selling (trading) it. Can't fit my bike in it and I'm more of a truck person. I guess i shall just wait and see what kind of offers i get.

receiver hitch it!! My super swamper truck stays home. It cannot
even compete with the steva! Snowmobiles, ATV's, my quad, tecate'
basecamp..I haul it , I tow it, I pack it, nothing works better here in the
Oregon desert and the cascades.

If you just need to go to the DQ , and look cool that's alright but I took
one of those guys out a few miles on a forest road to snowmobile and now
he hates his big diesel and monster trailer because he sank out of sight and it took 6 hours of after dark fun to get him out.. I drove all around him to flood light the excavation process.. A light little festi just floats on top!!

Lol well i was wanting to carry my mountain bike so i could ride it around town (Save gas and lose weight) So a hitch wouldn't save me much trouble.


Just curious what do you guys feel this thing would be worth if i sold it, I will probably sand it down and paint the blue spots black.

Well i got 41.2MPG this tank, first time i have been out of the 20s! Not bad for a 4speed, 5speed should give me a little more. I actually gained 7mpg just in driving habits.

I also will hopefully be doing some paint work to this soon (Don't get to excited it's just a rattle can touch up and a tacky paint scheme)

Need to find a pride emblem for it, just the word pride. Also keeping an eye for a Mercury Bobcat emblem. Going to do a black and yellow bobcat theme, in support of my High School (Bobcat Pride!)

Bike rack... they strap onto the hatch, and they're fifty bucks or so at Wally World.

i really don't want to have to add an exterior rack, they are horrible on mileage. I might just have to get a bmx style bike, just need to find a cheap one with selective gearing. it should fit with the back seat folded down.

I've carried my mountain bike in the back of my Festiva quite often. I drop the back seat, take of the front wheel of the bike and it fits in without any problems. Went to a mountain bike race once with my oldest son... had two bikes, a tent, cooler, tool box, sleeping bags, a camping stove and more all inside the car!!! Had to take both wheels off both bikes to make them fit.

[rockin86ranger]

i can fit it, but it requires me to remove the front wheel and the seat(not necessary but easier), fold the rear seat down, and move the passenger seat up to the point none of my friends will comfortably fit. Even then the passenger would have to ride with handlebars inches from their head.

Get a collapsible bike? Rear mounted bike racks aren't really that bad for fuel economy. You can make up the difference by doing 55 instead of 65mph, and unless you're already going to be driving for more than 2 hours, the time difference is basically one pee stop. (About 20 minutes)

[rockin86ranger]

well i already drive 55 so can't do that, i will probably just get a bmx style bike with selective gearing and agressive tires. I could just get a slightly smaller mountain bike but might as well get a different style one while im at it
