What is your ride, show it off

[Tony V.]

So lets talk about our favorite ride, could be boat, car, motorcycle or even off road. Lets see some pictures!

I will start, this is my brand new ride. Picked it up two weeks ago and love it.

Its a 2017 Victory Vision. Heated seats and hand-grips, power windshield, cruse, 4 speaker stereo, ABS and more.

1730CC (106CI) V Twin

My favorite is my old '68 numbers matching Chevy II. We've been through a lot together over the last 35 years.

and my daily driver '03 Super Duty is alright too.

The '87 Turbo Buick is a lot of fun as well, been racing and modifying it for over 20 years.

I am not a fanatic about cars, always thinking of them in a utilitarian way. But we did splurge a bit with the last purchase and decided to get a nice sedan, so we bought a 2014 E350 sport version. I have to say that having driven lots of nice cars, it just does most everything really well is is very comfortable. And it gets amazing mileage, over 30 MPG on the highway, not bad for having 300 HP. I never took a picture of it but will to share.

2003 Gary Fisher Advance, a solid value mountain bike. Been ignoring it more than I should.

2005 330i E46. Even a drive to the store feels like you are on vacation, such a fun ride.

My daily driver, 2008 CRV EX-L. Super comfy, with all option boxes checked and super reliable.

Didn't know they were shipping them over there!

Special order!.

Nothing fancy just a truck.

I'd upload images of my Suburban... but they're really not all that exciting.

 

[Jack]

C'mon Todd, if I can do it you can too.

First is my road cruiser, I do drive a lot.

And of course her car, it gets to sleep in the garage.

 

[Todd Anderson]

I'll do it... but it ain't that exciting.

The last buy I made, my ability to fit (1) kids + friends and (2) pinball machines came into the equation. The suburban fit the bill. It has been a GREAT truck. And has handled everything we can throw its way.

 

[Tony V.]

Todd, cant agree more, sometimes practical is the only way to go. Our "other" vehicle is a 2015 Buick Enclave, does almost everything we need it to do. It was the only SUV that we found that had 8 passenger seating and still room behind for storage.

Recently purchased a 2008 Infinity G35x with all wheel drive. Got a great deal for the "hail dents" condition, once a salvage but with glass and trim replaced. Sound system is the best I have had in a car, not near as nice as the system in Dennis's BMW, though. Someone told me this thing is supposed to have some power and speed, but those things don't interest me so I wouldn't know - heh heh!

My wife drives an FX35... I call it the Bat Car. That thing has some serious power under the hood. 300HP engine... and the car isn't that heavy. Makes for a fun time when I can steal it on the weekends.

 

[JBrax]

Yeah, crazy the HP these newer engines have now days. I remember when the Mustang GT had 225 HP and that was considered a lot. My wife's grocery getter has a twin turbo that puts out 365 HP and scoots right along.

Grocery Getter.

LOL

I like that term... I might need to use that the next time I see a buddy of mine sheepishly driving around in a minivan.

It is hailing right now. I just zoomed home from class and shoved the Bimmer into the single car garage. The Honda has to fend for itself.

Uh, huh...

Hey, I think minivans are cool! (ooops, did I say that out loud?)

Nice ride!

It is a lot of fun. But Tony v's motorcycle has about 500 cc more displacement.

Love your car, its crazy how things have changed. my very first car was a 1977 Chevy nova with the 305 V8 and its horse power was 200. My current Buick Enclave is a 3.6L V6 and it cranks out way more HP.

 

[Leonard Caillouet]

My first was a '73 pinto with a 4 cylinder, and before that I drove my parents' 69 Rambler wagon. Maybe that is why I appreciate the Benz so much.
