Are there any tricks to maximizing the space on the driver side? If I can't get him stuffed in it, I probably can't buy it. I read the posts on the door rust and tire issues, anything else I need to look at before buying?
Thanks!

I wouldn't recommend it. I'm a little north of you in Michigan, but I have to drive the car year long and in the winter time, the snow is brutal. I cannot drive it anywhere, I usually take my dads truck if I need to go to work or school. If you have another car that will be realiable and always at your disposal for the snow, GO FOR IT! It is an awesome car. I just know if I had to rely on this car for the snow, well i'd be fucked on more then one occasion.
