Fondly remember the el series, employer at the time encouraged road safety with a days training on the skid pan.

Also got to drive an el wagon on regional trips, was lucky to miss the speed trap on the way in from the regional airport. With all the rear weight, was a little surprised it got sideways on a newly moistened curve. Took it a bit easier after that little scare.

Looked at an ef xr6, but at about 4 years old the dealer was asking 15k for it (dont recall the mileage).

I found them solid and reassuring, but not inspiring. Hope im not sounding dismissive, as i so wish we were still building something here.
