I currently drive a 2004 Ford Explorer XLT.

The wife drives her 1997 Taurus, BUT I'll be turning my Explorer in for a Focus and she'll get the Explorer around summertime.  I only drive 10 minutes one way to work.

Beware the Focus.  I loved my 2000 SE wagon until the air conditioning died 1,200 miles past the 36,000-mile warranty and it would have cost $1,500 to replace it.  

That and brakes that wouldn't quit squealing convinced me to trade it for a Camry.  So far, so good.

Drive a 2001 Ford E350 extended with powerstroke diesel mostly , but also have a 1997 Ford F350 4X4 Crew cab ( Also powerstroke diesel ) 8ft bed and a 1989 Lincoln. Both trucks will get close to 20 MPG if I drive right.

Sigh

At one time I was the proud driver of a 1988 Dodge Dakota. Power windows & locks,  It was brand new, fully loaded and fully paid for, all mine.

In the first 5 years I had a single car that beat me off the  line when the lights turned green. And that was a trans am. That dodge was a snappy happy sweet deal.

Now I drive a old Oldsmobile 1988 Delta 88 Royale thats about to fall apart at the seams.

Are we what we drive? No I don't think so.

But even if we are its ok.

'05 BMW 325xi 5spd manual

xi because I need the all-wheel-drive up here in the frozen north, BMW because once you go there, it's hard to drive anything else (4th Bimmer in a row) :aok
First two were Z3's, after my divorce I needed something a little more practical, so the next two have been 325xi's.
