what do we drive?
i wonder if the stereotype of the creed loving soccer mum with her SUV will be upheld? :p
<<<<<<<oh he went there folks..... :eek: i drive a 1990 Nissan Pulsar Vector after my previous car died on me lol. :o |
Soccer mom checking in here. I drive a 2001 Chevy Venture Minivan with the tv in the back to keep Damian and Satan from fighting. I also have a 1995 Saturn SL1 that has lay dormant in my driveway since my hubby left in August.
|
I drive a 1991 Chevrolet S-10 King-Cab Pickup.
This week I've been driving my dad's 1989 GMC Safari van. A few days ago we got an 1988 Mazda 323. We got a sweet deal on it. We got it for the price the dealer actually purchased it for, without the markup. H-D :xmas: |

can you explain to why people drive 4wd's when they don't venture into the bush? i guess you've got the kids there in the back (satan lol) so you need a bigger car. the amount of fuel that must guzzle........ |
It's got a 26 gallon tank, so it's been costing me $40+ to fill my tank. The first time I ever filled it up I almost passed out from the shock!!

Quote:
26 gallons? i'm having a bit of trouble converting that into litres but i'm crystal clear in the thought that is massive. i've went from a car with a 2.7 litre engine to a 1.8 and it uses only 50% of the fuel which is fantastic. |
I drive a good ole (spelling!?!?!?!) 1994 FORD Tempo.... :( :(
|
Quote:
ford tempo? must be called something else here. what does it look like? |
A shoe box!!! :lolsign:
Its a .....small, 2 door car |
99 corrolla i bought by myself, less $1000 paid by mi padre, ive never broken a twenty filling it up, even when gas was muy expensive....
|
2005 Ferrari F50 series
AKA Some second hand POS car for 2,000 bucks actually i dont own a car, but I have no doupt that that will be my first |

corollas are very economical and reliable. perhaps they ain't very sexy or extremley fast off the line but its better to have minimal fuel bills. |
Grr you all suck, I want a car. :crying: I don't even have my Learners licence. Meh, I will have to get it sometime though.
So, my favourite car. The car that I am going to one day get. In metallic blue with gold mags. The one and only, Twin Turbo Mitsubishi GTO. My baby: http://www.kandktrading.com/Mitsubis...%203083001.JPG http://www.aimooimage.com/dluxton/img22.jpeg http://www.bee-r.com/main/parking/mi...GTO%200012.jpg God I'm in love with that car, always have been, always will be :D |
Quote:
my advice for your first car is to get something small and reliable cause cars can be preddy expensive. i just bought my car the other week and to register it alone was about $500. daylight robbery....... |
Yeah that is expensive. I mean I would LOVE to get that car, but looking at reality I seriously doubt it. :p I haven't even gotten my licence yet, so I'm not even thinking about buying a car just yet lol
|
I drive a 93 dodge stealth....she is very fast.
|
I'm no soccer mom, but I drive a 2000 Dodge Ram Quad Cab pickup and a 2002 Saturn 4 door. (with a sunroof!) The Dodge is for hot dates, the Saturn is for simply driving, because gas is still $1.65 around here.
|
1995 Eagle Vision. It's got the styling (and space) of a large sedan with the power of a moderate sports car. It's pretty awesome. ;)
|
I've got a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I don't drive that much - it's only got 20,000 miles (just hit 20,000 last week) in two+ years of owning it.
To answer a previous question of why owing a 4WD if you don't go offroading - well in my particular case, it's much easier to drive with in our semi-harsh Wisconsin winters. :) I used to have a pic of it but I can't find it right now. It's got a CREED 1 license plate :D |
a 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan... Yes... it's a MiniVan... But ii'm NO Soccer mom... I Use it to Carry around all my GUITAR Equipment thank you very much! :D :jam:

When I get my Diablo, it will own your GTO http://www.thewallpapers.org/download.php?wallz=num1816 |
I drive my feet ;)

we gotcha..... |

oh yeah i remember seeing that and your car is quite recent. i think most people in the suburbs (in australia at least) don't use their 4WD's for their designed purposes and they are using twice as much fuel as is necessary. |
1979 Holden Commodore VB. Still works like a charm, hopefully new car soon though.
|
I own a 1998 Chrysler LHS, the ultimate mafia mobile.
And let me tell you about the mileage, it sucks more than a Socal girl in frat house. With a 4.2 litre it sucks a lot of gas, plus it can only use premium - so it owns. Might not be as cost effective or fuel efficient as those imports, but remember kids, if we were to ever cross paths - I will split you in half like a can of sardines. |

a VB commodore? now that is a real aussie car......:) my old car was made in 78 and had a good life but just wasen't worth fixing in the end. 4.2 litre tank mulletman? man no wonder you americans use so much of the oil resources. but i'm sure its fun as to drive......:) |
For a grandpa mobile it rocks, it has the interceptor system [fuel injection, engine, tranny] so it goes faster than normal without sacrificing engine life. For the uninitiated, the interceptor system is what the police, Secret Service, FBI, and other law enforcment agencies have in thier cars.

i'm really appreciating a drop from a 2.7 litre to a 1.8 litre. i'm spending half as much on fuel which is great. i've really understood the fascination with large cars to be honest. is this interceptor system some sort of overdrive or extra gear? |
1998 hunter green Honda Civic, four-door.

the japanese know how to build those little econmical machines although honda is not what it used to be. |

I dont like small cars or small engines, I'm a big guy so I need a big car. The interceptor system, in lesser words, makes the car go a lot faster without damaging the parts. Problem is the car cannot go as fast as it can, but the plus side is it goes faster than stock. I'm not a car guy, so I cannot give you any more detailed thing than that.
|
My dad doesn't like small cars, either, as he's 6-5, which makes small cars a bit uncomfortable. He drives a van and my mom drives a Camry.
|
Yea, my first car was a Saab, thier biggest model. Needless to say that wasnt big enough. I mean I loved the car and I got a lot of attention with it, but didnt have enough of a comfort zone. Atleast in the tank it feels like im sitting in a recliner. I can sit in the back seat with a lot of space and still have the front seats all the way back.

a big car if you're a big bigger than most is fine and i don't begrudge a 6 foot 5 person for instance having a larger car. there is however on roads in my city people everwhere with 4wd's for instance that have never seen the bush and they drive like they own the road. plus who is using all our oil when these things guzzle so much?

I like SUVs they are very useful. Plus, if you have the money to afford the SUV, then you should have enough to afford the gas. |
2002 Honda Accord V6 loaded, fire pepper red! :D

Quote:
that is true but if i could afford to spend that much on gas, i'ld still much rather spend money on something that doesn't come out of the ground in iraq or saudi arabia. |
