Cars

I thought it was because a lot of people like to be up high. Personally, I think you should need a special license to get a larger vehicle. To prove that you can a) drive it. b) Need it what so ever.

We wonder why we're so dependant on foreign countries for oil. I had a friend in high school getting 4 MPG.

btw, Cpayne. Is that the Rivers, and Trucks, and Microinvertebrates OH MY river?

Buying a mini van is something that my wife and I have sworn never to do. We hate the entire "Soccer Mom" revolution. We also refuse to put permanant stickers on our car.

The down side, she likes mercedes. Damn!

I'll take practically any car that doesn't feel like the wheels are about to bust out from underneath the car while driving it cuz that isn't too fun of a feeling.

some of my dream cars would be a modernized 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge, a modernized 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 or 1970 Mustang Boss, or an Audi S4. plus it'd be really kewl to one day have the money to have a hot rod put together like on the American Hot Rod show on discovery.

That is the exact spot!

I have to disagree with most of you on women driving SUV's. I have three children a wife and a dog. I will not be caught dead driving a mini van so I forced my wife into getting herself an SUV. When we take trips home up 95 I usually drive, but she is the primary driver when we are here.

I also am a car enthusiast and have to have my own ride. I recently sold my 1997 Eclipse and am about to purchase the 2006 Pontiac GTO as soon as it is available. There is something about a car that has 400hp and 400lbs ft torque that compells me.
Awesome. After you've had it for a while, tell me how you like the LS2.

Hey, what's wrong with a Civic....and personalized plates? I have a 98 civic that does what it needs to do...gets me from A to B. And as long as my liscense plates say REDSKNZ in New York...I am happy.

I personally decided I didn't want a civic anymore after Fast and the Furious came out and everyone seemed to start getting them.

hell, i don't want a civic anymore either but i am not in a situation right now where i can just decide that i want a new car....i have to use what i have at the moment..with one kid and one more on the way all my money goes to them if you know what i mean

i have to use what i have at the moment..

I know how u feel, my 91 ford taurus has seen better days & is falling apart around me and forcing my hand on me getting another car before I had actually planned on it.
