So, what's everybody drive these days? (for those of you who do drive!)
Daneel
well... i just picked up a '90 Honda Civic with a stick, AC, CD player, new tires, and a newly rebuilt engine with 6K on it for $50 not too shabby. the old station wagon is still around though.

92 Saturn. Yeah, It's hot.

I drive a '96 white chevy cavalier with some severe paint damage on the front driver's side bumper. Did I mention that the turn signal on that side is also held on by duct tape? YES! It's awesome. It has almost 200,000 miles on it (that's what you get for several Cincy/Philly road trips a year for almost 10 years).

Nowadays, I get scared just thinking about driving beyond a 60 mile radius from the Cincinnati Greater Metro Area...

Good times!

I want to know where Daniel got that car for fitty bucks...share the wealth, D!!

Maybe our cars are twins. Mine is a blue 1992 Saturn SL 1.

'01 Subaru Forester that's pissing me off with stupid electrical problems. No wonder my hair looks like this!

I love my '01 Subaru Forester! There are lots of Subarus in my family.

Don't misunderstand me ... my car has been great. Until recently. And those cupholders are in a bad, bad spot.

I must say that I'm encouraged by the ubiquitous Toyotas here in the Orchard.

2000 Toyota Camry CE. ("Chloe")

88,000 miles: not one mechanical problem.

I love Toyota smile.gif

Apples who have experienced the ecstasy of Chloe's transport:

-- brandon
-- DJDelicious (janelle)
-- FloridaGirl (becky)
-- dre-bro


who knows? you could be next wink.gif

I mostly drive a bicycle, but I own a Honda Civic -98. takes very little fuel, and I can't think of another reasonable quality in a car so I'm happy with it.

Me too Posty, 04 Prius. I'm quite jealous of my dad for upstaging me with the 05.

I want either a late seventies / early eighties VW rabbit, or a Thing.
Retro baby, retro.

I'm about to put my name on the waiting list for the '07 or '08 model... 'cuz by then my school loans will be paid off, and I can trade my Corolla in and M & I won't have to fight over who gets to drive the Prius... rolleyes.gif

Um...dude have you ever driven/ridden (rode?) in an early eighties VW rabbit? And I don't believe they were made of wine so I'm sure 20 years would not do good things to one...

I just spent 2 weeks on a road trip spending quality time with my black 2002 VW Jetta GLS. She's a sweetie, but I think it's best if we spend a little time apart...

where'd you go, steve? (i know you stopped in cincy, but where else did ya go?)


oh, and i have a 2000 kia sephia. smile.gif it's silly. but it's actually kinda cute and gets good gas mileage. i was a proud urban resident/no car person til this breakup thing smacked me around, and wheels became necessary. however, i bought my car in hopes that i could sell it in about a year, returning to normalcy of a proud urban resident/no car person. we'll see! wink.gif

Started in St. Paul...stopped to see folks/stuff in Sparta, WI, Sycamore, IL, West Lafayette, IN, Cincinnati, OH, Washington DC, Virginia Beach, VA, and the back to IN. It was good, but I'm glad to be home!

they are about to start making the hybrid camry in kentucky. i think thet'll be available next year. that could be very cool.

for a little bit, your trip was similar to mine: started in eagan, mn; stayed with good friends in milwaukee, wi; stayed with a dear pen pal (since i was 13!) in chicago; drove through IN; stopped in columbus to meet dan and amanda; and then i veered into an opposite direction: cleveland and buffalo.

OK... so today... I ran out of gas for the 2nd time in my Prius... so after running out of gas, I proceeded to drive to the nearest gas station...

I our Prius.

Driving on battery, while not recommended by the manufacturer, is a handy feature. biggrin.gif
