Topic: My new daily driver...
in Forum: Humor

I drive either of two vehicles, depending on the weather. 1994 Ford Explorer with about 150,000 miles on it. Leaks oil out of a hole in the manifold, but gets me to work and back every day I need it (hate that burnt oil smell though!).
For nice days it's the 1984 Nissan 300ZX Turbo I bought last summer. V6 5 speed that is quick no matter what. Didn't start it all winter. Took out the battery, charged it up, dropped it in and started right up on the first key turn!
Wife drives a 2003 Dodge Ram Quad Cab, and the daughter drives a 1991 Saturn SC1 coupe. Son, is getting ready to turn 16 in a couple months and I haven't quite made up my mind what he's going to be driving.
Vette is still packed away. Wife forgot to mail in the insurance payment so we're waiting for the reinstatement before getting her ready for the road. Work on the new house is keeping me from enjoying any "good" days we have on the road anyway.

2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS, 40+K miles and no issues. Only thing I'm not liking at the moment is the cost of the Premium fuel it takes, although it averages 25 mpg in the winter, and 28 in the warm weather.

2000 Chev 3500 4wd dually,crew cab, 7.4 engine, talk about great mileage!
Good thing the company furnishes me a truck! The dually is 5 years old and just turned 30,000, most of those miles put on by my sons. wish they would at least wash it when it comes back with an empty tank!

Dave ,
have `em fill the tank once .and they`ll be glad to wash it for you.lol
