Just curious what kind of car do you drive. I work with cars daily, love cars, and my hobbies revolve around cars. I used to be an Install Manager for a decent size retailer and have worked in some facet of the auto industry since getting out of High School. So yeah, list up your car, and if you are into modifiying your car, list that stuff up as well.

    95 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Modest 3" lift and 30" tires. It's been slowly dying on me so I'm going to need a new car soon. I really want to get an Audi Allroad. Those things are sexy.

    If I was into modifying cars, I've got a good one to do it with. I drive a 2003 Honda Civic Coupe with the faster engine. Manual, of course. I'll trade her in this spring, though. Can't be driving a two-door when the baby comes.

    I drive a 2001 Toyota Tundra (and no, my brake pedal isn't sticking!)

    I am really into off-roading with it so I am part of another forum full of other Toyota fanatics. I have it lifted about 2 inches all around with coilovers and new leaf pack, 33's, a rear differential locker along with a couple of beefy skid plates and rock sliders. It has right around 104K on it and is it still running great. I try my best to treat it well and it returns the favor. Also when stuff does go wrong I know how to fix it ;-)

    I have a blacked out '98 VW Jetta GLX Vr6 with an after market intake, all leather interior, power everything, and a sun/moon roof. Yes that is a V-6 engine inside my luxurious ride. But it's going to be my spare car for next year when I invest in a new ride of actual luxury quality, luxury to me at least. For now, I have good gas mileage and dependability.

    I have a 2006 Pontiac Persuit. It's the 'Daily driver'. I also have a 2000 Chev Blazer. It's my 'Recreational Vehicle'. It gets me out fishing/camping/hunting and the 4 wheel drive comes in handy to get me back home. It rides better with a weeks worth of camping gear in it and a canoe on top.

    I used to modify my daily driver. I had a 93 Toyota MR-2 Turbo putting 310hp to the tires. I've since grown up. I drive a 2004 Ford Ranger(I bought it to lower it and just haven't got around to it) and bought the wife a new Mazda 3 GT. HOWEVER, out in the shop is a tube chasis 1974 Corvette putting 900hp to the tires running low 5's in the 1/8 mile. Smile [:)]

    2008 Toyota Yaris Hatchback.
    The only modding I've done is putting in one of those tube lights under the drivers seat... Thinking about getting new rims and a system for the summer time.

    I drive a 2007 Suzuki SX4. My wife calls it the "Uglymobile." I bought it because I live in Ithaca and teach in Syracuse 2 days a week. I travel part of the way on I-81, which has some really bad snowy stretches.

    This vehicle is front wheel drive, with a selection for automatic 4 wheel or 4 wheel fixed. I have had to use it a few times going back and forth to school and it has helped. I bought it new in October of 2006 and have just under 80,000 miles on it.

    I drive an '06 Chevy Tahoe LS with 4 wheel drive. Had a Toyota Tacoma before and hated it, I felt all cramped inside...it ate up less gas, but I'm way more comfortable in the Tahoe, not to mention I can put all my tools in the back and still have room to carry 4 people.

    Right now, I drive a 2001 Pontiac Grand p.o.s... My mother's had it for the past 3 years (I got a company car right after I bought it), and tore it to sh*t. Lost my company car, and had an excellent 1990 Lexus LS400 for 2009 that only had 130,000 miles on it (yeah, that's 6500 a year). I kept it in perfect shape, and loved it to death...till the starter crapped out, and not having the $800 to fix it nor the mechanical abilities to do it myself I gave IT to my mom and took my Grand Am back..
