Back in 77 when I bought my LUV, Datsun was advertising ''Drive a Datsun, then decide.'' I did. The LUV had a much friendlier shifter and pulled much better at low RPM. That is important if you are actually going to use it as a truck.

Later a car magazine did a test on about 5 of them. The LUV came is second on almost everything, better millage than the one with the most power, and more power than the one with the best millage, etc. Its worst score was on ride. Hey, it is a truck. It held its own with an easier to use 4 speed against the 5 speeds many others had.

Now I have no idea how the others fuse boxes held up. I do remember my father in law and I spending a whole day tracking down wiring splices and soldering them on his boy's Courier.

This looks like a car from the front. Just doesn't have that "truck" look.
