What do you drive?

[TheMartellFamily]

1988 BMW is what I drive, it was in storage for ten years and is in great shape. We also have a 2009 Jeep Patriot. We needed it since our Audi station wagon with 230,000 miles was dying quickly.

1994 Saturn SL1 - 100K + miles on it & it still purrs like a kitten.

2003 Saturn Vue V6 - 59K miles on it, still drives like new.

Sadly these will be my last Saturns... Hopefully I keep them going long after the company is gone!

1929 Ford, garage kept original paint job! My Lil' Old Toy w/ a Running Board - passed on from my grandfather to my dad to me!

I drive a 2004 Volvo V70 with almost 100,000 miles on it, and DH drives a 2006 Honda Civic. I'm hoping my Volvo will last another 100,000 miles before we have to buy a new car - I love it!

[Greenlawler]

I am lucky enough to drive my dream vehicle, a2004 Dodge Ram Quad Cab, Gun Metal Gray.

Now that's cool!

I currently drive a 2007 Jeep Compass (my first "new" car). I bought it with 15,000 miles on it at Carmax and it was initially used as a rental. The only pitfall to this is that the center console stinks of old lady perfume. I can only assume somebody spilled a bottle and the scent has yet to come out

[MushuGrl]

2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser, "opal" in color, but is actually more purplish, affectionately called "The Wicked Queen." She'll be making her first Florida trip in January.

My previous car was a 2000 Cruiser, black in color, known as 'The Villianmobile."

I drive a 2007 Jeep Commander. When we lived in CO they were all over the road. Not so much in Chicago. I can parallel park it in the city with no problems. I like it, but I think I am ready to go smaller.

When we moved we only had one car. DH needed a car to get to work as the trains and buses don't go out to his office in the burbs. He picked up an 88 Chevy S10 that has less than 50k on it. It was just moved up to IL this past summer so it will be the first winter for a 20 year old truck!

Doesn't anyone else have a muscle car in the garage?? Everyone is soooo practical...

It's all in where you have your passion and priorities. I wouldn't spend extra money or effort on a muscle car, but I buy way too many purses! The trips to Disney World also take precedence. But some people really love cars and that's great too!

That's my problem, I have way too many hobbies. I started collecting watches now, and that can get real expensive real quick. The car needs a few things, but we leave for DW in 17 days! At least I have my priorities straight.

[WDW crazy]

I drive a black 2008 Saturn Sky Redline. We also have a:
2001 Chevy S10 (hubby's)
2008 Nissan Titan (son's)
2008 Honda Civic SI (other son's)
1977 Corvette (mine) seldom driven
2005 Harley Davidson (hubby's)
2007 Yamaha R6 (son's)
2006 Honda CBR (son's)

No ... Our "muscle car" is our boat.

And if you think a muscle car is a money pit, trying owning one that floats!

I've heard that the two best days for a boat owner are the day you get it, and the day you get rid of it! And I've heard it from a lot of different people.

I've heard that, too. From a lot of different people.

They are a headache and up here in the Northeast it often feels like a ridiculous waste of money with such limited time to use it.

But I will say that when we're out on it it seems worth every penny to me!

I sure do.

My toy is a 2006 Mustang GT. She's custom in and out. A Roush TVS blower, tuned to 16 psi, results in about 620 ponies at the crank. (525 at the tires) A short throw shifter, racing clutch and lowering springs are also in her. Even with all that power, she cruises on the highway like a kitten and gets 23 mpg. Twitch my right foot however, and 0-60 comes in about 4 seconds.

As soon as I replace the guts with forged components, the psi will be tweaked and she'll have 880 at the crank, roughly 750 to the tires.

Then I'll get the roll cage installed, and drop 3.83 gears in her. Eventually, the goal is 1,000 horses at the crank...and still street legal.

I've customized the white body with fire engine red painted and clearcoated lemans stripes, custom badging, and little tweaks all around. The engine compartment is immaculate, and I've just started detailing that even more. The interior is red leather with carbon fiber accents.

Won six trophies this year at various shows. (proud papa).

Daily driver is a fully loaded silver Chevy HHR. I needed something with great gas mileage that can also haul my amplifiers and guitars. The HHR fits that to a "T".

We are "boatless" for the first time in 20 years. It is really bittersweet. I miss her. There is nothing like boating. We started with a ski boat and slowly upgraded to a 34 foot cruiser. Then, we realized we just weren't using it enough. So, now we have an RV. We'll see how long that lasts.

And, my son has the muscle car. The 65 Rivie. I don't know why my father decided to give a 10 year old a car. Oh well. At least it's huge for that first minor wreck that all teenagers have!

[BriarRose0708]

I traded my first car last year (a 2005 Chevy Cobalt) for the 2009 Exquinox! It was quite an upgrade for me as the Cobalt, or "Colby" as I named her, was a base model with nothing on it and the E-nox has everything! I love it and will drive it until it runs into the ground.

[disneyboundagain]

.

Now we're talking. As you make more power, the trick will be making it stick. It took me 2 years to get it right, but now it will do 0-60 in 2.2 seconds with the front wheels about 12" in the air.

Sorry if this is a little off topic, but cars are one of my many passions, besides Disney, that is.
