"How old is too old?", indeed...

Yes, a timeless topic worthy of a resurrection...

Our 11 year old G35 works great as a TV. The other day I spotted for sale a very nice 2006 Mazda 3 GT/hatchback with the 2.3 Auto. Going back to have a look at it today. Thinking it would be a great TV for a small egg if we ever decided to go that route.

Here's my daily's and the 60 Avion and the new generation 80 Burro . The age of a tow vehicle has absolutely nothing to do with how it performs, its the upgrades, the foundation, the maintenence and its ABILITY to do the job safely .

NewFisher.... luv those vintage Avions and especially the tow vehicles.
