Whats everyone driving these days? :)

So what does everyone here drive? This will be fun.

I drive a 1997 Ford Expedition XLT. Been in the family for 10 years. A strong runner just at 135,600 miles. Gets me a whoppin 14mpg! Beat that!

Its a darkish green color. Not a spot of rust. Ford did something good on this year. Never seen a rusted expedition. And in nebraska cars love rust!

Its a fantastic vehicle for transporting stuff. My upright bass is the perfect match for this truck. And I can haul dozens and dozens of vacuums in it! Even washers too! We've done it all!

Please pardon the dirtiness. lol.

Forgot to mention.

The expedition has never once been garaged (our last house and current house could never fit it, its so tall!)

And we drove it every winter, all winter as our only vehicle until last year when we got the 2003 Expedition Eddie Bauer.

2003 Mazda 6-S

Bought new, custom ordered, full optioned, premium price. My first and last Mazda product, you wouldn't believe all the petty shit this car's had done to it over the years, I've practically rebuilt it.

For daily errands, going to work, and winter driving it's a 1999 Buick Park Avenue in silver Birch with med gray leather interior,It only has one tiny rust spot, and has only 151,500 miles on it, and usually averages about 24 mpg

For church, traveling, and any where else I want to look good it is a 2006 Lincoln Town Car Signature in Lt. French Silk metallic with cashmere leather, it has a whole 21,700 miles on it currently and is being put away for the winter next week.

The Mighty Geo!!

I drive a 1994 Geo Prizm (which is a rebadged Toyota Corolla) with 239,000 miles on it. It runs beautifully and I'm still on my first clutch! It has been by far the most reliable car I've ever owned. I've put very little money into repairs.

 

[washernoob]

Loving the pics so far! That lincoln is gorgeous! The best looking lincoln since the continental in 1968!

Congrats on that Geo! Thats mighty impressive for such a car. Never thought of a geo lasting that long! I thought wrong for sure!

I have a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo.

A positively boring automobile as far as styling. Silver with drab grey interior. Awful, but it has decent cargo room and gets me to where I'm going.

I need a 50's car.

Mine is a 1996 oldsmobile cutlass, it only has 132,000 miles on it and I have had it just over a month. It is definitely the best car I have had, it runs perfect, doesnt burn any oil, and doesnt leak anything. It has plenty of power and could get you a ticket in a hurry! I took this pic at our church, and it is really dirty in the picture, it looks really nice when it is clean.

 

[DADoES]

2001 Infiniti I30t, but it crapped-out Sun afternoon ... so, thus far this week, the grandmother's 1994 Cutlass Cierra, with a whopping 44,994 miles on it.

I now have a 2010 Toyota Camary Hybrid-really like this car-it has MORE features than the Lexus Hybrid it replaced-and at lower cost.So far averages 34MPG-has a 4 cylinder gas motor and a 110Kw electric motor.Its metallic gold in color-and tan leather interior.Normally I don't think of Camarys being this nice.I always thought they were basic "get you there" cars.And this one doesn't have the traditional key you put into the keyhole and turn-instead an electronic "fob"acts as the key.There is a backup "key" in the fob to open the car in case.

My daily driver/work-horse is a 2010 Chrysler Town & Country. This is probably one of the top three vehicles I have owned in my life. I don't know if I will ever be able to go back to a sedan. So much room - the second and third row seats drop into the floor. In a way having this car has been bad for me, because everytime I see an old stove or fridge I can just put it right in the van! In addition to hauling things, it can seat seven. It rides beautifully and is so comfortable on road trips (which we take a lot of). It gets about 17mpg around town, but on the highway I can get about 23mpg.

By day it's the blue on blue 1993 K1500 Blazer pushing 250k. A real workhouse!

By night, the fully optioned '89 Custom Cruiser. - Cory

 

[countryguy]

I have a 2008 Lexus IS250 AWD.

BTW up here we called the Lada a Russian Cadillac My uncle had one back in the 80s. It came with its own tool kit and crank for starting the engine (really!) in case the starter didn't work.

I have a four year old 2007, manual transmission, Honda Fit Sport. After waiting nearly 6 months, it was delivered in October 2006. The fit was just being introduced in the USA and I wanted Silver with a manual transmission. The vast majority of cars were automatics - 90% - thus the long wait. I have been very happy with it. Since I live in a city and park on the street, I like having a car that can fit in the small spaces that other cars have to pass up. Plus it is versatile with its flip up or flip down rear seats, and roomy inside for such a small car.

I take the subway to work, so only use the car for shopping or when heading out of the city. I have almost 33,000 miles on it, and its lifetime average gas mileage has been 33.2 mpg. I just follow the maintenance minder when to change the oil, and when it reaches 15% oil life have it changed. Sometimes I can go 8 months or more before changing the oil. It usually goes well over 6000 miles before needing an oil change. I have never had to add oil to the car between oil changes.

My previous car, a '95 Integra, would require about a bottle of oil to be added between changes. I changed the oil every 3000 miles on that car, and drove a lot more. I had it almost exactly 12 years and over 180,000 miles.

My Car...

2002 Chevy Cavalier 2 door LS. I bought the car brand new off the lot on June of 2002. Not even 70,000 miles on it yet. that should happen within the next few weeks.

I do quite a bit of city driving, and I've noticed that the oil consumption (NOT burning oil or leaking) has gone up a bit. I'd really like to get on the highway and open him up a bit.

The clear coat on my car is my most major problem. It looks terrible. Also quite a few dings and dents on the door and sides because some inconsiderate mother ***ker decided to let their door hit it.

If I were to get lucky and get a substantial amount of money somehow, my pick for a new car would be either a clearance '10 Cobalt, or a new Cruze (only thing I don't like about the Cruze...no 2-dr model available).

MY CAR WILL ALWAYS BE A GM (if I can help it)!

However, here's my dream car...just a replica (woo woo).

 

[autowasherfreak]

I don't drive, I have a chauffeur called the city bus, LOL. But if I could drive I would have either a classic Chevy or Cadillac from the late 50's or early 60's. Something that as class and style.

A have a Batavus Verona bicycle!
