91000 miles, and outside of somewhat loose suspension and misbehaving power seat it is running wonderfully! You used to have a green one, right? This is newer?

Keep the Merkavas rolling! :)

processing I did makes it look Black..

Well that's good to hear . there appear to be many more of them available than the '95 I have. It was getting pretty harsh driving actually with the sport suspension from Bilstein and 17 inch wheels the nasty New England roads are just brutal. Maybe time to get soemthing more comfortable.. thanks. btw it just rolled 380,000 miles this week. :(
- Cool! Do you have people honk at you? - Victor Khomenko 16:09:14 12/09/10 (3)
  You can always soften the suspension, 17 inchers should not be all that harsh, really.
  - The Bilstein Sport shocks are pretty firm - ArdRi 18:54:39 12/09/10 (2)
    maybe the extra resistance over roads which are from the Stone Age can be Jarring.
    I have had a few people shout and give thumbs up and I met a man at a Starbucks who told me he noticed the plate and asked what it meant. When i said it was Hebrew for Chariot he said he works with a charity in Israel which takes Israeli children around to Army Installations on Field Trips to familiarize them with the idea of Army Life so when their compulsory service comes around they might be better ready to take it up and that he had been taken for a ride in a Merkava IV.

    - A "charity" that indoctrinates kids into the idea of killing. - tinear 11:46:25 12/10/10 (0)
      Wow.
    - I have always been using the Bilstein Sports... - Victor Khomenko 06:25:13 12/10/10 (0)
      ...with 18" wheels, you just need to get used to it. You can try somewhat softer tires, perhaps.
- 380,000 mi, and not a diesel?!! Damn, that's a "runner" - very nice. ~t - mpathus 14:30:27 12/09/10 (1)

    roaring up a long, curving inclined highway at 90+ miles per hour.
