Well, we did a thing: We sold our beloved 1989 Mitsubishi Delica Star Wagon, AKA the Space Tractor. You may be wondering why the heck we’d do such a thing. Well, read on.
Amazingly, it’s been a bit more than year with our Delica. It’s amazing the places we’ve gone and the things we’ve seen with the Space Tractor in just over 365 days. It’s been quite the journey, and it’s just begun. We’ve also learned a lot.

By now you may know we have a 1994 Mitsubishi Delica Space Gear (L400) 4×4 van in our stable. And of course by “stable” I mean our driveway of ’90s JDM 4WD Mitsubishi money pits projects. What you might not know is we’re again partnering with Tim Esterdahl of Pickup Truck + SUV Talk to…
A couple of months ago, we sold our beloved Space Tractor, our 1989 Mitsubishi Delica L300. It was a fantastic vehicle, but it was time for a change. We knew we wanted another Delica, but it had to be the right one. Somewhat amazingly, the perfect van fell into our laps rather quickly: a 1994…
