1994 GMC suburban - Now before anyone anti-SUV people jump on board.... yes it does use a lot of gas which I know is bad... but with 7 people in my family (2 of em in carseats) and really nasty chicago winters...it's really the only way to go for us....Though we do hope to buy a minivan in the next year and 'save' the suburban for nasty snow and trips.

Well, let's see I drive a glorified Honda Lawnmower....grrr. Yes I have the smallest engine in a Honda Civic. Great on gas mileage and hasn't given us high repair bills in the 6 years we've owned it. But it has NO power!!! I have to turn off the A/C to merge, to pass a semi, to go up a steep hill. We call moments like this "Flintstone Power Mode!"

Ironicially we own a Honda mower!!! LOL

LOL @ Miss Mary! :lol:

I drive the "Luminator", a dark red
'92 Chevy Lumina with a rebuilt engine -
contrary to Miss Mary's Civic, when I hit
the gas pedal, it's gone - bye bye - c-ya!
When the a/c went out, a neighbor actually
managed to locate a can of the oh-so-hard-
to-find RD12 coolant, and, the a/c works
great, for now!

I keep looking at pick-ups, but, I hate to even
think about making those monthly payments.
I'm going to keep doing automotive CPR until
I HAVE to give in to another vehicle! ;)

NIce to see a Mustang lead the Thread.

As for me I have a 99 Blazer daily driver to haul the Bowling balls around that I seem to need.

A 95 Mustang Convertible,and last but not least,a 1968 Mustang Fastback,which happens to be silver,a "little 289" thats pumping out 350 HP at 8 MPG. And a '67 Mustang Hardtop with a "K-Code".

98 F150 Extended Cab with a 4.6L Triton
and
94 Mustang GT (the girlfriends). Second to last year of the 5.0's and lightly, lightly modded with BBK shorty headers, BBK Offroad H Pipe, and 40 series Flowmasters...next on the list is underdrive pulleys, new hood (Cobra R) and a new passenger side mirror and door because some @$$es at Wal Mart (employees) pushing carts back into the store didn't stop and damaged it from the mirror back and are refusing to take the blame so we are waiting for the local news consumer reporter to come take care of the matter before she gets an attorney, but the damn storms keep rolling through and they keep going to cover storm damage.

Pebbles - just about! What's funny is when we were teaching our oldest to drive, my car was her primary car, but her dad owns a 5 speed too (mine's a manual also). So on occasion she could drive his car which of course makes it up any hill, if A/C is on or not. Grrrrrr...... You don't know how many times I've had to hear at the dinner table - now in dad's car, I can easily get up any hill or merge mom...... LOL

Forgot to add, I also downshift to 4th when merging or passing a semi!!!

Is it the sedan or coupe? I had a coupe that I traded in for a CRV this year. It was a 2000 and I thought the coupes were SHARP - especially with a spoiler!
