Whatcha Driving?

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

Post your ride.

Had a 2013 Hyundai Elantra with 110,000 (!!) miles on it. My wife was starting to be terrified of driving it in the snow though, and we had more instances of lacking cargo space since having a child. Seemed like the transmission was starting to act up as well.

For budget and size reasons (driving in Chicago, sharing a garage at our apartment), anything bigger than a compact SUV was out.

We test drove a Nissan Rogue (too loud, felt cheap), Honda CRV, Subaru Forrester (just not quite right), Subaru Outback (too big). We were going to go with the Honda CRV but I really wanted to try out a Toyota RAV 4.

Found a 2015 RAV 4 with 25,000 miles on it. Barcelona Red.

Only regret is that it isn't something better as far as mileage goes, but we couldn't find a nexus of size, price and mpg that fit so we had to sacrifice somewhere. (The newer RAV4 hybrid for example)

I have a 2016 F150 with the 2.7l twin turbo. I love this truck. I live in a very urban environment now and have to park it in a parking garage, but I'm not giving it up.

It's got 33000 miles on it. I get crazy good gas mileage with the smaller engine, and just had to put an exhaust on so I could actually hear it. Other than the exhaust, I put in different headlights and tail lights.

Myself Crazy

Seriously, would be a 2001 plymouth neon but I blew the water pump and timing belt so now I'm driving dad's lincoln navigator since it's easier for my mom to get in and out of.

My feet, since I can't drive

[twiggy101]

I only had one car in my life. It was a black 2 door Oldsmobile Alero. I bought it when I was 17 drove it for 8 years before selling it. Nowadays, I walk/take the bus everywhere because insurance is expensive as hell in the province I live in.

2013 gray Honda Civic. 38,000 miles on it. My first car. Was actually my grandfather's car before he passed away. He left it to my mom, but she can't drive after having a stroke, so now it's mine.

2007 Chrysler Town & Country, touring edition. Call me what you will but I've always loved vans; they're so roomy, and with 2 kids that fight over literally EVERYTHING(to the point that we have a rule that only one is allowed in the kitchen at a time,) everyone can have their own space. It's been great to us, has a DVD player and component hookups for game systems, but we're going to have to upgrade soon because she's starting to have some issues.
Even if I have no idea how we'll afford it.

I needed an upgrade, and as much as it hurt me I had to sell my 2013 Dodge Challenger SRT to get myself a more adult car, and one that can drive in snow
