I drive a seventeen-year-old 2003 MINI Cooper S and love it. Here's the latest Google picture from low Earth orbit:


And then the Google car drove by when I was leaving for lunch...

All paid off. Truck is a beater but the other two are nice. I do a lot of wood working, construction and hunting and use the bed of my truck a lot, I could get rid of the car and SUV but I gotta have a truck.

Nope! I would hate such job. So much pressure and stress I would imagine

Kia Niro. Seems well-made, lots of frills by my standards. Not exciting - but I am routinely getting over 60mpg, which I like. I sure miss a good CD player.

2016 Camry SE
Wife drives a 2016 Ford Explorer

I also have a 2001 Silverado with 230k miles in my garage that needs a lot of work.

I’m a truck guy, but with new truck prices being so outrageous and a long commute I needed an economical and reliable gas saver that isn’t too cramped and the Camry has served me well.

I am surprised how much personal information people are willing to give on these threads. Name, age, job, location, list of assets, photos of homes and cars, family...

It’s a nice corner of the internet. But it’s the internet, folks, and anyone can read these pages.

Exclamation

I've got an old subie legacy wagon that is my beater. I've got a slightly newer subie legacy wagon that is a lot nicer, and one of two daily drivers. The other DD is a Lexus IS300. Car 4 is a really really nice IS300 that's turbocharged and had lots of other go-fast stuff.

All 4 are manual transmission...

Wanna add a late 1990s Lexus LS400 to the stable, when I come across a good deal on a nice one.

The 1990s thru early 2000s were a real golden age for jap cars; the exchange rate was great for the Japanese and their automakers were flush with cash - their cars from that era oozed quality and are very reliable and cheap to maintain.

Agreed. These personal information requests are getting a little creepy.
