Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Common Interests recommend a utility vehicle for under $2.5k?

Older guy (30s) at work has a commanche. Low miles for its age. Seems to be a pretty decent truck. He says it needs a bit of work, and occasionally he has to take a different vehicle to work while working on the commanche but still decent. He always talks about his dreams of dropping in a bigger engine,etc.... though he already thinks he can beat me on the highway in it.
