What do you guys/gals drive?

Do you want to talk about your beautiful country, family, or dog? Would you like to say where you went on holiday or how you arranged the garden? Are you willing to tell us you girlfriend left you for a(nother) loser? Do you have ANY non knife-related topic you want to discuss? This is the place!

Here's what I was driving this weekend. '41 Packard 110 that my grandmother gave me to drive in High School.

The lack of AC was noted in the 94 F heat, but otherwise a lot of fun for a 64 year old (the car, not me!).

Tanto,

On my score card you are in the lead in the most unusual catergory. :wink:

I drive the car everytime I get up to our place in the Sierra's where Betsy (Grandma's name for the car) lives. With the 6500 feet elevation, she doesn't put out her full 100 HP, but she moves right along even on the freeway. A joy to drive actually.

My fleet of vehicles consists of

1992 Lincoln Town Car

1989 Dodge Dakota 4x4

1999 Polaris 500 Sportsman

And I must agree.........that is a way sweet old ride there Mr. Natch...I bet folks tend to check it out coming down the highway!

It may not be evident, but Skoda is up there with Audi and VW.
The Octavia is also very popular in Norway (and deservedly so).

My primary ride is this:

Secondary ride is an old, white Mazda 626.
Had to have a cage for the rainy days.

I drive a Honda s2000. It's my second one actually because I got careless last New Years and totalled my first one. No I wasn't drunk, it was raining and my tires were worn down much further than I ever should have let them get before replacement. I went to change lanes on the highway and all of a sudden my car was doing 360s right into the median. It sucked.
