Red 91 Geo Metro LSi Convertible 4/2

So, what is the purpose of having that concrete in the trunk?

@pelepihuamo- Did you read the video description?

[pelepihuamo]

@CincinnatiGifts  Ok, I got it now. I thought they were being used to squash down worn out shock absorbers or for handling purposes, but now I know. I'm a BMW guy, but when gas hit $4.75 in 2008 I bought an LSi convertible, and used it as my daily commuter. I still have it and don't want to sell it, back in my high school years I had a brand new 1994 XFi 2 door hard top, and that one gave me better MPG than the LSi, but still the Metro is the best way to save gas without buying a new car.

@CincinnatiGifts Do you know if there are any body kits out there for sale? I dont mean spoilers or side skirts, I would like something to re-body the whole car. There is an ATV called Joyner Renegade that looks like a Hummer, and I've been wanting to buy the front end and put it on my geo. If I ever do it I'll post a video of the process.

I had close to 800LBS of plaster I took to the landfill in a metro the scale attendant looked a little perplexed when see scaled the car after I dumped the plaster, drove away only $10 poorer as opposed to $35 for a pickup

[hooverskins]

damn that car did pretty good. auto? 5spd?

[CincinnatiGifts]

Considering the car has a tiny 3-cylinder motor that can be lifted by two people, it did quite well running up this hillside.

This particular car was a 5-speed. I've run similar tests up the same hill using automatic Geos, with similar results.

[hooverskins]

yep got a 94 suzuki swift (same as geo metro) with a 3 cyl 5 spd, wish it was convertible but it's great on milage

[CincinnatiGifts]

At the moment, I have three convertibles, one XFi and I just bought two 92 Metro LSi hatchbacks last week. My XFi is on ebay at the moment.

is that eastgate by chance

[CincinnatiGifts]

Close. It's actually climbing Eight Mile Road hill in Anderson Twp, heading north towards Beechmont Ave.

[jerrett]

looks like a fun road

[GeoMetroMan91]

did well for having the much weight in the back

[CincinnatiGifts]

I thought it did well. Now I gotta get the concrete outta the back so my neighbors don't think I'm selling hillbilly-mobiles with broken rear struts.

[GeoMetroMan91]

LMAO! Metros arent hillbilly mobiles, what a bunch of dumbfucks lol.

[CincinnatiGifts]

I know. But most of my neighbors, myself included, all have newer vehicles. They would never consider one 15 - 18 years old, and probably don't think much of me having as many as I do 'cluttering' up the neighborhood. My next door neighbor has called my township zoning commission on me, complaining about the shrubs and trees I have on my property, claiming she can't see when she backs out of her driveway. Something tells me she's really complaining about all the vehicles I own!

[GeoMetroMan91]

thats none of their damn business its your property. You should try to open ur own little used car lot, you would make alot of money lol
