  • Adopted another 6x6

    This is the Terra Tiger I posted in Craigs list for sale section not mine. But now is, The guy was asking allot for it and I told him that when I went and looked at it. It really is nice condition, I realize from you guys telling me these are not that great a machine...but but but ..its so cute MOM !!
    He gave me a heck of a deal due to being messed with so much on Craigs he had enough. He called and said "you'll be surprised how low I will go bring trailer".

    Mine now so I will have fun with it. Since so nice I will just putt around on this one to preserve it.IMG_20151109_165921.jpgIMG_20151109_163712.jpgIMG_20151109_163725.jpg

                  If these were worth 2 hoots someone would of already spent the $ on tires,wheels and adapter plates.They obviously had time since the 1 piece tires hasnt been made for probably 30-35 years.

                    Wow tell us how you really feel. No, a terra tiger would probably not make it into my fleet, but that machine does look very nice. Try not to be so negative towards another members beloved new toy. He clearly knows what he got and is happy with it. Sometimes it's not just about how well you can push it on the trails or how fast it is. Sometimes you buy something because you love it. Sometimes you love it just because you have it and it looks kind of cool. I had a 2013 escape that had numerous recalls as well as a few troublesome wiring issues, but the car drove great! Now I have a 2015 terrain that has given me no problems yet after 53000 miles. I'd take that escape back any day of the week. Even though it was problematic at times, it was fun to drive and put a smile on my face. Sometimes that's what it's all about. Screw all the negative press and issues which can always be fixed or at least improved upon. If it puts a smile on your face, you should be proud to have it.

                      Yea they look cool as ****,but that is where the novelty ends.I have had 2 of these years ago and know darn well every drawback they have.If the truth hurts so be it.If he was going to buy it anyway why quiz the board and waste everyones time.

                        Wow Eddie, what got your panties all in a bunch today. No one forced you to read his thread. If you don't like them fine, but stop trying to rain on his parade.

                          Andy is one of the most positive and upbeat members of the forum....at a "Don" level....seems a shame to discourage him.

                            Andy, I remember ogling a Terra Tiger when I was still in high school. Seems like they wanted $1300 for it then. In 1960's high school money that was major cash. I have to agree with Drew, have fun with it. It looks good!

                              Yea, they said things like that about the 1963 Ford Falcon and now I get offers to sell it every time I take it out. It all depends on what you like and what you don't like. Personally, I think his Tiger looks pretty cool and would be a neat machine to keep as original as possible just because of the history of 6x6's.
