sadly my geo can survive the ritual abuse of mudding, racing, and all other sorts of shenanigans. ive hydrolocked it 4 times and it still runs. the only thing ive replaced are a few bits of sheet metal, tires, and one clutch. its also the snow plow vehicle. nothing else can take a beating like that thing does

My alero was the same way. I beat the hell out of it. took it off road, raced it all day, drifted it around are roads and it even got hit three times! by women. But the thing never quit. Only thing I ever changed was the brakes.
