if the rear window fails you have 36 sq' of dead space. An example is in the winter when the window freezes and i'am trying to get mine or my sons hockey gear in the back seat through the two door.
Its something i can live with though

Also: Only having 31" tires (that is changing soon), stock gears, underpowered. The list could go on and on, but if it didn't need improvement, what would I have to look forward too.

22RE and 5.29's don't have enough power to turn a set of 40's down the highway fast enough for me

5VZ wasn't an option in 1984
