OK I finally went out and Bought a used Vehicle- so it got me thinking??? What do you drive- I'll go first (cause I got a new/used vehicle- and honestly I have wanted this car/truck since I first saw one) I currently have 4 vehicles- My old Towing Truck- 1986 Chevy Silverado 1 ton- Crew cab long bed- less than 60,000 miles and SUPER MINT (up for sale) and my 1998 Dodge Dakota crew cab- 123,000 miles v-8 5speed (also for sale) My wifes 2004 Toyota Rav 4 AWD 5 speed- 60,000 miles and My New (used) 2003 Subaru Baja Sport- AWD 5 speed with 50,000 miles (man I wanted a Subaru Brat when I was a youngen- now I guess I have the Yuppie version of it!)
So what do you drive???

I rarely drive. Two days ago I gassed up for the first time in two months. Now I remember why I don't drive!
The few times I am behind the wheel it's the wheel of a 1999 Saturn. (bought used)

'03 PT Cruiser (as they say in these parts "croozah") but then there's the 98 honda civic (POS but at 44 miles per gallon, who cares), the 2000 dodge dakota rt, and the '67 dodge dart. Of course there's also the shelby pieces in the attic and the fixer up motorcycle and the racecar in the process of being built. BUUUUUUT mainly I drive the cruiser.

Me? I have a '99 Tacoma and my wife's got her '05 Honda Accord Coupe-RED. And then there's always my good 'ol '59 Chevy Panel truck, but she's resting-has been for 15 years now. I've owned the panel truck for 34 years now. Had lots of gooooooood times in her.

1997 Dodge Caravan for me. It's kind of a brownish color. Plenty of room for kids and packing things around.

2002 Ford F150 Supercrew. ( she'll be paid off next July!!) I love my truck, she's a goldish/silverish color, Depends on the sun. She rides great and after having a Saturn and being hit in the rear, my truck makes me feel safe. Long way from back of the truck to me in seat... anyway I love my truck.

We have far too many vehicles right now. I drive a 2003 Toyota Highlander; which I love. My husband drives a 2005 GMC 2500 truck (which is for sale). Our play car is a 1999 Corvette (which is for sale) and this week we bought a 2004 Ford 650 Hauler Truck. Any takers on the two that are for sale?

I got a 1987 Suburban 454, heavily modified, 1986 G20 conversion van. 383/350, 425hp, both vehicles average 22mpg with high tonnage aboard. My van hauled six tons from Los Angeles to Tampa averaging 22mpg. Took the divide with breathing hard. Both vehicles have full poly suspension all corner torsion bars, The van, 2:73 posi, the burban is getting 3:11 posi. Both have crossed exhaust, 2.5" on the van, 3" on the burban. Both vehicles can get the front tires off the road from a rolling acceleration. Pound for pound, my burban, and van get over five times the mileage per load than any high mileage vehicle. Nothing beats cubic inches. Do love the lopey idle.

This is what I drive to work almost every day, other days I drive the purple Chevy. I had a 1992 Honda Accord but my daughter took it from me when she started working. She's working two jobs now, she wants a 1966 Chevelle.   |

I drive my bug in the summer. 1965 VW with a brand new rebuilt stock 1200cc 40hp motor. I get about 30-35mpg but it is only a 3 season vehicle. When it gets cold and the snow flies the bug goes into my pole barn and out comes my Ford pickup with a Western snow plow for pushing the snow out of my driveway.  |
