My marauder was a 90% daily driver until earlier this year. Rarely was driven on rainy days and never in snow. I owned it since 130k miles and it now has 183k on it. It's hands down the best DD I've ever had. Comfortable, balanced, great visibility, looks good, gets compliments, slow left lane people move when you come up behind them, plenty of space for people/stuff, don't see them every day. The windows are tinted, it has a nice aftermarket stereo system, and it's been programmed to change the shift points/firmness. Other than that it is bone stock. Gas mileage is 18 around town, 20 combined, 24-25 interstate. I only stopped driving it every day because I got a 99 Accord for daily driver duty which gets 30mpg around town, and beacuse I want to keep the Marauder nice so I can sell it soon and put that money toward a new Mustang GT.
If you are thinking about a Marauder as a daily driver, I believe you should do it.
I just can't bring myself to actually do it.. aagh.
Last year I was looking at every possible way to sell my car and pick up a cobra or mach 1, but after the 4.10's, new headlights and double din touch screen, I've been enjoying every minute I drive my car. Now I can't wait to get the eaton on :rockon:
These kind of threads always makes me wonder:
1. How many more Marauders would they have sold if they came with the terminator motor from the factory?
2. How much more would they be worth now?
My dad's supercharged one is the perfect car. Lots of space, decent enough gas mileage, and plenty of speed. And looks good to boot.
Oh BTW..my Terminator just went up for sale.
If I manage to pick up this IT job and it gets extended, I'm going to show up to your house with a suitcase full of money and make you rethink what you just wrote :read:
It'll go from "haha, my terminators for sale" to, "**** yes my terminators for sale!" :-D
Hope it's a big suitcase. :rolling:
Pick your gear ratio better. These cars have 28.6" tires stock, and a common rear tire that's good and cheap and sticks well is the 255/55/18 nitto 420s
The problem with those tires is they look like balloons on the factory wheels, and odd considering the small front tires.
Cooper makes tires in the Marauder OEM sizes that a lot of people are using now. I've been fortunate enough to be able to find the OEM-sized BFG KDWS any time I've needed them.
If I could, mine would be rolling on 15" centerline telstars or bogarts... with some big honking meat in the back. I do think I'm gonna get some slightly larger diameter fronts to make them a bit more equal. Bone stock I can barely chirp the 420s's from a stop; I'll find out tomorrow how 4.56s behave
