What DO you drive?

Hi All,
 This one will probably not be familiar to those outside the UK but here is my baby. Also got a 1973 Triumph Trident T150V but it's a box of bits at the moment  

       

Oh Yes, it's called a Scimitar

Have multiple rides.

Main - a 95 Dodge Dakota Club Cab 4X4 V8 and auto trans.

1990 BMW K75RT motorcycle with sport style windshield. It's a 3 cyl water cooled injected little rocket.

2001 Saturn L series sedan V6 with auto and the wifey drives that one the most.

Remember, the one who dies with the most toys... is still dead.

My first ride was a 93 Chevy Lumina
Was a nice car, but too big for a lil' tardling learning to drive. Lasted 2 years, still runs.

Second ride was a 2000 Chevy Corvette wich I'm too lazy to post a real pic of. If you do a search around the forums you'll find. Very nice car, chick magnet, used it for two months but I finally settled in with a 95 Jeep Wrangler because I decided I'm too humble to stop by the supermarket in a vette, and it was not convenient anyways. Good car for going to the raceway and for posing around. But the Jeep I love, great car, can go ANYWERE I mean it. Is fast enough, and I tweaked the insides to be more confortable.

Euros: are there Wranglers over in Europe? Just curious, its a great car I love it. I see the euro guys go more for simpler functional cars rather than the big gas guzzling SUV's that are the trend here.

 I have an 79 F250 that my grandfather left me when he died. He bought it brand spanking new for $6,500. "my how things have  changed" I use for farm stuff. Economy is measured not in miles per gallon but gallons per mile so it doesnt get driven much.

 My everyday vehicle is a 93 ranger 4*4

 I also have a 90 cougar  that i occasionly take if im going somewhere special.

 Aslo have 3 tractors, a Honda Forman and a toejamty old always broke POS lawnmower.

 Swoop, I used to have a CBR 600. I came > < this close to loosing my licence so i decided to get rid of it. Speed limit 80kph = ticket before you shift into 3rd... There is just NO way you can not speed on a machine like that. The cops had little sympathy though   Miss it every day

Animal: was in europe recently and saw a couple wranglers.  I'm sure I saw one or two in Paris, not sure if I did in brussels also..

My main ride is a '92 grand marquis that I inherted from my grandpa in 1995.  My wife drives a 2000 taurus SEL.  We also have a '93 taurus SHO and a sort of running 83 chevy caprice of great sentimental value to my wife.  it was stolen in '99 and we amazingly got it back again after almost a year.  Has almost 190k miles and engine/body is still in good shape just needs breaks fixed.

Right now I am driving a 1966 Corvair Monza. I love driving this car, Ralph Nader be damned   I have a 1975 MGB in the shop (recovering from an accident), which I will soon be parting company with for a 1977 Corvette.

Bah. Wimpy gas whines.

I get between 6-9mpg and have to fill a 30 gallon tank about every week and a half. Avg gas price is 1.35$

Such is the price you pay for using a mud truck for everyday drivers  

OTH it eats cars like geo-mcnuggets...all that fuel goes toward serious horsepower.

Drive?

Don't even have a license.

It didn't stop me in my teens, but alas, I've grown older and more careful

Animal, I drive a Jeep Wrangler once on a while (my sister owes one). There are loads here, but most of them are pre 1995 models. (my sis's is 1989 model with round headlights).

Oh yeah, and I already got it smashed once... it sure is sturdy  

What is a license ?
