Just Curious: What Do You Guys Drive For Personal Vehicles?
Like it says: what do you go home to?
Do you use your work vehicle to do your personal stuff, or do you have something else at home? I have a 2004 Mustang Cobra convertible, screaming yellow with black top, slightly modified with 450 horsepower at the wheels. Summertime, it's my everyday car, but I put it away from November 30 to April 1 Winter I have an 06 F-150 with a Blizzard snowplow, so it pays for itself. My wife has a 1999 Mustang GT convertible, triple black. Just got it in September. First thing she insisted on were chrome wheels and Magnaflow exhaust. She also has a Nissan Murano, sort of the family vehicle. We don't like it, but Nissan is VERY inflexible about getting out of the lease. All 3 of my sons also have Mustangs, a 91 Vert, and 2 89's. All have custome paint jobs. |

Re: Just Curious: What Do You Guys Drive For Personal Vehicles?
If I am solo I will take my pickup/work truck. On a social outing, shopping, church, etc. we have a 06 Torrent and me wife drives. I would rather ride than drive anytime.

Re: Just Curious: What Do You Guys Drive For Personal Vehicles?
I was driving a Corvette as my daily. I got bitched at alot by the other contractors for pulling up on the mud roads sliding sideways in a red Vette.
Sold it to pay off my student loans with plans to buy a new one. End up buying a Chevy Avalanche for what reason I still don't know. So now I drive the Avalanche, and have an Intrepid also (for her to get from point A-B). I give myself 2 years before I have enough saved up for my new Corvette. Mmmmmm...

Re: Just Curious: What Do You Guys Drive For Personal Vehicles?
2003 Suburban is my truck, car, passenger bus, and all around transportation. 2nd veh is a 98 Toyota Celica GT . Body style of the old ferrari....fun!!
This is my 2nd Suburban for work. They are awesome. I have 2 trailers it tows. 1 dump body and my 12' enclosed cargo for tools & staging. The best thing is on rainy days. I fold down the back seats & I can haul sheet goods & 12' millwork and close the doors !! No stuff hanging out the back getting wet. Friday comes, flip the seats up and we can go out with friends and ride in class. Looks good to the customer, too. Try it, you'll like it !!
