Me: 93 Honda Civic....no a/c and no radio...and it smells bad.

Wife: 2005 Hyundai Elantra

......

We'll probably need to replace the Honda within the next couple of years. I like the Hyundai Sonata for it's price/value.

bought Ana a 2006 Sonata. We love that car.

I drive a 97 Ford Ranger. Still runs well. Just the other night, at an instersection, a guy in the car next me was offering me cash for it. No dice.

:energy:

ok, so stepped put of the house 30 minutes ago to drive to McDonalds. There was anote on my truck: If you want to sell this, please call Angelo at xxxyyyy.

:blink:

Why is my 12 yr old for ranger so popular nowadays? yeah, it is well maintaned and all, but it is a 12 yr Ford truck! One of the reasons I bought was I figured no one would want to steal it. Now I am thinking of parking it in the garage.

Did you get a fish mac?

I have a Dodge 1500 Hemi and love it. It is so comfortable to drive. Claudeth makes a kind of bed in the front seat (she is only 4'8"). We drove it to Colorado last summer and it was very comfortable. The drawback is that it only gets about 10mpg around town and 18 to 20 on the highway but maybe that has something to do with the way I drive.....I come from the 'leadfoot' era. :blush:

Yeah, I could put in $10,000 worth of aftermarket parts in my Supra and boost the engine HP up to 675 HP with 0-60 times under 4 seconds, but why? Top speed is governed down to 167 mph, but I can get a speeding ticket driving 50 in a 55 and even when it's parked. Driving sanely, it gets 29 mpg, but I love that eight way power seat, like having a hot blond on my back.

Wow, I was just thinking of putting running boards on the Dodge :unsure:

I take the 4 and 5 Lexington Ave Line on the NY MTA. Goes a little slow but for $86 a month for unlimited use, it's worth it.

My husband has an Alfa Romeo, ummmmmm, it's red? It's a car.

Him: 1972 Jaguar XJ6 "lumped" (i.e. with a small-block Chevy V8 dropped in); 1984 Corvette (up for sale now -- we need the space!); 1968 BSA B44 motorcycle; still back in the UK are a 1971 Triumph Spitfire convertible and a late-70s Triumph Dolomite.

Me: 1995 Ford Taurus (our workhorse -- cost me $1000 a year ago, got us from CT to CA without any problems and averages about 30mph on the highway); 1993 Mustang 5.0 convertible.

WOW, that drive to CA must have taken for ever. I am not sure I would boast if my car only did 30 miles per hour :)

YMMV

Sure, I see those everywhere. Actually, if the idiot had parked in the space correctly, it would still have been tight, but there would be room on both sides.

I've heard that cars reflect personalities and I'm also curious about what kind of vehicle you'd personally recommend as a car owner and why your car is a good value.

Honda CR-V :thumbs: It's good on gas and I've never had nay major problems with it.Someone dinged me at work and I need to get it repainted,that's it.
