2007 Corolla S thats my daily commuter
2005 Town & Country Limited is the Mrs car
2005 Land Cruiser my "2nd" car
1997 Wrangler 2" body & 2" suspension lift with 33" tires. A summer fun car
1983 Chevy 1ton truck (im restoring it)
Lost my cherry 73 vette in the fire :(
 
I have a 2008 Chrysler 300C SRT8. It has 425Hp and gets me where I want as I want. Lot's of goodies too. Regards, Bob.
 
The wife - 2005 Toyota Sequoia. Can't say enough good things about this car. It has a V-8 but still gets 17/22 mpg. Looks good, rides good!

Me -2001 Nissan Maxima (20th Anniv Edition) good car. Initially bought it for my son to drive around, but I decided to keep it since he's going overseas for a while.

My truck - 1999 GMC Sierra (single cab) good truck, but a gas guzzler. Have been fortunate no to have any serious problems with it. Gonna drive 'til the wheels fall off.
 
I mostly drive a 2005 Civic , 4dr.... my wife drives a 2008 Civic 4 dr... both of which roll off the line at the plant I work at....
 
In my earlier days, I had a Ford Falcon XA.., then a Falcon XD, with the same 4.1 liter engine as the earlier Falcon. On the plus side they were fast and smooth to drive, but on the minus side they had big fuel tanks which cost me $$ to fill.
My current mount is a 1991 Isuzu Bighorn 4wd wagon, goes well and saves me $ in fuel, diesel is much cheaper now than petrol.
 
My wife: 1999 Toyota Sienna van.

Mine: 1999 Toyota Avalon with 202,000 miles on it. I just replaced the spark plugs, timing belt and water pump on it for the first time as preventative maintainence. I plan to drive it to 350,000 miles. It gets 29.5 mpg on the highway @ speeds of 70-75 mph. I've had it to 140 mph on the local county roads; man that was a blast!

My truck: 1966 Chevy C-10 Fleetside with a 283 V-8 engine and a two-speed powerglide auto trans.

My tractor: 1959 John Deere 730 diesel with electric start (don't ask.....my wife would prefer I sell it!)

Excellent posts guys. I am debating over the Sephia or something similar (Honda Civic, etc). Will update this when I finally do get it:wavey:
 
Here is my truck in better times. A 1999 Ford F-150. It has 149k miles on it but is currently under repair after hitting a small tree on the way home from work yesterday. The damage is fixable for a reasonable cost but the rust I discovered today when taking damaged parts off has me wondering if it is time to retire her. :-( I would like a newer truck but hate to spend the $$ in this economy. I am going to consult a body shop before making a decision.
My other ride is a 2005 Ford Freestar Limited.

It's interesting to see what people drive in other countries or even on other continents! :)

The traffic in Europe is much busier than it is in the US I think, and the price of fuel is a lot higher, so we generally drive around in smaller cars over here.
you will hardly see any pick up trucks at all.

Yeah, y'all have some funny looking cars over there. Awful small. (I won't get into how they look like to me.....)

No pickups? How do y'all get by without a pickup? I've had 5 new pickups. My first 2 new vehicles were pickups. I can't imagine not having a pickup.
 
2003 Honda Element- 74K miles. Never a problem. Most convenient and reliable car I have ever owned. Will happily get another when/if the time ever comes. Love it!:ernae:
 
Toyota RAV4. Gets 25mpg on regular fuel with mixed highway/city driving. It's fun to drive. I don't need or want a sports car around here: roads are straight and flat (boring). However, it does go 0-60mph in 6.5 seconds. Yeah, surprised me too! Love this thing. Great turning radius too.
 
Not the best pic but the only one I could find already on the confutor. Tucked away in the garage is my '94 Ford Explorer with 162,000+ miles and still going strong. I dread the day I find an oil leak. Knock on wood! Haven't had a car payment since 2002 (Wife's Chevy). :mixedsmi:
 
I have a 2003 Toyota Tacoma Limited 4 door pickup... all the bells and whistles and just barely 30K miles. That's the wife's truck.

I also have a 1992 Toyota 4X4 pickup in near new condition. Never had an issue. It has a tuned off-road suspension, 33 inch tires, off-road lights and gets about 20 mpg in town.

A 2006 Ford FX-4 Pickup, body lift kit with custom wheels. Nice truck. Thought I saw one of Panther's muscle babes washing it in a video he posted over at the Cantina.

Hi all,
Got the choice of 2 cars if needed.2002 Citroen Picasso 1.6 and a 2003 Ford Focus 1.8.
The Picasso is great for space.Fold the seats down and you could get a small army in there.
Just sold a 95 1.9 turbo diesel Peugoet 306.I really miss that car.Loved it from new,But repair costs had become mor than the car was worth.
These are not my own cars.It is too dark to photo them here a the moment.
