Whats your ride?

[Scott Greczkowski]

I am kind of shocked by the posting of all the marketing & web D/L photos as opposed to real photos of real autos.

I havent had time to take photos of the real cars yet. It rained all weekend! (and is raining now)

I have a ford focus 2002 ZX3 and my wife has a 2000 VW Beetle W/ Turbo. Im thinking about traiding mine in when I get back for a extended cab truck.

My pics are definitely my car

I just bought a 2006 Toyota Highlander (picture below) and the wife drives a 2003 Toyota Camry.

My pics were taken in the driveway here and at my parents house.

1991 Ford Ranger with 133K
No AC or Heat

It's the truck I proposed in, and got when I was 17, now 30.

Also a 1987 Ford F150 with 87k
No AC, but heater does work

Those 108 degree days are a pain...

What do you guys think of the Ford Fusion?

What do you guys think of the Ford Fusion?

It isn't a bad car. When I was shopping for my replacement for my Ford Contour, and looking at the Ford Five Hundred, the saleman steered me to the Fusion which had just come out at the time.

I liked the car but decided to stick with the larger car I was originally looking at.

If you do drive and like the Fusion, be sure to check out the Mercury Milan or even the Lincoln Zepher. The latter will cost slightly more but little things make it 'worth it' to me.

I eventually ended up buying my Mercury Montego (Mercury flavor of the Five Hundred) over a Fusion because it was a much larger car inside, better safety ratings, cost about the same, and the milage was the same as the v6 Fusion.

I wish I could say the same. Maybe one day I'll be able to buy a brand new car outright.

Bought this 2001 Ford Escape brand new in Feb 01 and still have it. Best vehicle I've ever owned. Tons of torque, great gas mileage, 72,000 miles and have never had to take it into the shop for anything.

Don't own this anymore but my wife had this when we got married. Her parents bought it brand new from Pontiac.

This is my 2004 F-150 work truck. The company I work for pays for it.

Ok, this is to keep Chuck happy.
1939 Dodge sedan (named Sweetpea). Photo taken in 1966 about a month before I got drafted. Both me and the car look a little different now but it's the only photo I had in my computer. The 'ol girl was missing 1st & reverse but back then we made do. It made up for it by all the room it had in the back seat

Is that the new Expedition EL? Looks pretty nice!

It is. Thanks.

What's bad is they are almost giving away the 2006 Expeditions.

My wife's a CPA so I have to make "financially prudent" decisions now.

If you can afford to keep your current car(s) and "pretend" to purchase another vehicle (in other words, save the car payment in a savings or money-market account for 36-60 months) you should have enough to buy the car and have the interest you earned instead of paying it to the bank/finance company. Barring financial emergencies, once you can pull this off, you can keep it up for the rest of your car-owning experiences.

My brother (another CPA, I'm surrounded!) refuses to buy a new car and thus avoids the 15-35% hit a new car's value takes driving it off the lot.

Hey guys,

Below is my ride

Although people talk about how great it is to have the freedom to go wherever you want with your own vehicle, I'm content riding the transit. I takes me from my apartment to campus and almost anywhere else I need to go.

 

[dougruss]

Here is my Main Ride: 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport ( Paid Off)

and my run around Toy: 1974 VW Bug

My ride.

This is my current ride. I'm selling it now, for something more reliable, and more economical
'98 VW Passat 1.8T with a lot of mods

My wife has a '93 Nissan Sentra, that also will be replaced in the near future
