As of last week, I drive a 2003 BMW 325i Sedan.

Prior to that, I had a car with no driver's side door handle. I had to get in the passenger side for like 4 months. I'm finally not embarassed to drive around.

I have a lot of "dream cars", but one that I've really wanted for a long time is a Land Rover Defender 90. So sweet.

Hahaha, I feel your pain! Same here, my ride is a Metro transit bus as well. It's equipped with graffiti laden seats, some slashed seat cushions with the padding falling out, and other passengers that often have an unpleasent odor emanating from them! Plus, transportation on the glorious subway system is included in this dream package which is free with a University ID! Oh Yeah!

My dream car would have to be the McLaren F1 (a.k.a. dream on because I'm never going to get it).

mushashi - i appreciate your dream car. that is very nice. however you say to dream on because you are never going to get it.. I believe if you want something bad enought and think about it enough, you will find a way to get it. that is the way the human brain works. the subconcious does not know the difference between thought and fiction.

Oh, by the way, I drive a 2001 Ford Focus ZX3, but I am looking forward to the Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG

I love that SS. When I was a kid I had a paper route and a few blocks away someone had this same car in their driveway but in perfectly original condition and I aways thought how great it would be to own that car. True classic muscle car!

I drive a 99 Toyota Solara V6SLE. It's the quietest car I've ever driven. Eeven quieter than alot of Benz's I've been in. More people get in and say "You can't even hear it running." But she moves and doesn't get bad milage. Two doors makes it a little tough hauling around alot of people. Only consulation is the back seat has a lot of leg room.

Why does page one of this thread fit my screen and page two is way too big?
I have had this problem in the past as well.

When they fight, they are like two fiery Arabian Stallions fighting for total dominance of the herd
Well, I'd have to say that the RAV4 would be too tight a fit then.

I've always loved the idea of having a SMALL SUV just like the RAV4 so my dog would have a comfy place to nap so I was delighted when they came on the market (it's a lot smaller than my neighbors' vans). I pack up the tent gear in the back seat, the dog lies peacefully in the back cargo area, & off we go.

Michael ... get one of those big Hummers. They rock. Perfect for a mid life crisis, and the dogs will love it.

Probably looking at a SUV like the GMC Envoy XLT or the Honda Pilot? Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations to help me make up my mind on which SUV is the best?

Porsche is the car of my dreams – RED, of course – 930, old fashion, yes, but very pretty to my eyes. A Ferrari GTS was always a favorite too.

I have nothing special at the moment because I'm too cheap to buy something else. I drive an '88 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. It gets me around pretty comfortably but I'm really looking into getting a 4 wheel drive vehicle eventually to go on rougher roads. My favorite car that I owned was a '67 Plymouth Fury 111, similar in shape to the '67 GTO. It was pretty sharp looking and got a lot of looks. I would love to get an old muscle car that was in excellent shape like a '70 Dodge Challenger. It would have to be my second vehicle, of course, because there not to great off road.

I bought a 1998 Toyota RAV4 so my Labrador retriever could rest comfortably in the back. I also had the idea that it would suit a second dog too, as long as they got along well.


There is no probability, whatsoever, that they get along well.

We have two show dogs – a Golden Retriever (Churchill) and an English Setter (PJ). When they fight, they are like two fiery Arabian Stallions fighting for total dominance of the herd as seen in a Disney film. Also, they kind of remind me of the Tasmanian Devil (TAZ) of Warner Bros. fame. Do you get the picture?

Of course, they are just playing, as all young males do, but since they are “our” little precious fur-children, they are absolutely spoiled rotten. I mean - I do not even like SUVs, or even want to drive one, and I am actually about to buy one to serve their needs – does that sort of sound like a real parent; sad, sad, sad, very sad indeed!

Nothing - my 16 yo smashed it up. Maybe I could get the rottys to pull one of those camel wagons.
