[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	4x4 and fuel economy don't go well together. Tall=crappy aero. That said, what you want is a little one. Which means something from the 80s, since they don't make little trucks any more. -----signature----- "I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty, than those attending too small a degree of it." - Thomas Jefferson

	Would love to trade my car in for a truck, but gas/tags every year would kill me. I know some guys with trucks that pay 600-900 bucks a year for their tags. Its ridiculous. Probably the only think keeping me from getting one. Care less about the gas. But the price for tags is outrageous for a truck -----signature----- Boooooommmm Heeeaaaddddshhhhooooottttt! http://www.carellaross.com/img/truth_its_the_new_hate_speech.jpg Mastatheimposta - 10L2 SB Merlin

Yeah engine designs from the late 70s tend to be incredibly optimised and fuel efficient. -----signature----- "Drink coffee - do stupids things faster with more energy! ...and I'm all out of beans..." -me "You guys need to stop dick riding wow and compare everything to it.

	An injected mid-80s model is fairly efficient. And it's 1000lbs lighter than a new one. My carbureted 1980 gets 30 on the highway, but it's also 2WD -----signature----- "I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty, than those attending too small a degree of it." - Thomas Jefferson
