I drive a 2009 Limited Jeep Patroit. DH and I just got it 3 months ago as a redeployment gift to ourselves. I love it it's the first vehicle I owned that cost me more then $500

Nice ride you've got there! Was '74 fuel injected or carb?

What a fun thread! I'm ashamed to show my car, because my mom was following me somewhere awhile back and rear-ended me -- and we really don't want to pay the deductible for such an old car (100,612 miles), so it remains bashed.

It's a 1995 Mercury Sable, white with grey interior... and it has stickers on the back proclaiming my passionate political affiiations, plus a pawprint magnet from the shelter. I figure if it can't be pretty, at least it can make a statement!

This was taken at about 3 a.m. during my long distance move from MA to NC, and in addition to being blurry-eyed, it turns out I had the camera on the wrong setting.


But this is my '98 GMC Sonoma and in the bed is my '00 Harley Sportster. Along with a bunch of other stuff, LOL.



The truck had 92K miles on her when I bought her in 2005, and is at around 124K now, I think. I bought the bike new, and she's at 35K miles now.

I drive a 2004 silver honda civic ..My parents bought it brand new and it already has 100k miles on it. I really like it, if it was up to me, i'd have bought a honda for myself too because it's fuel efficient and practical. Well a prius would have been my first choice to be totally honest. I drive too much though. Thats why I hate driving...Atlanta is horrible when it comes to public transportation though.

Some stupid teenage girl ran a red light as I was making my left turn. I was in shock when I got hit. My car spun 150 degrees and all I was worried about was that my cup holder poped off and my soda spilled
The inside of my car was really messed up the passenger seat was almost sitting on top of the drivers seat. It was really lucky that no one was in the car with me or they would have been badly hurt. It was not that bad of an accident. I had a minor neck injury, but I got to take a ride in the ambulence with a really good looking EMT. So it was not all bad

Oh wow that sucks. I actually had a thought [I'm blonde] while I was sipping my soda the other day with the can in one hand and the wheel in the other - what would I do if I had to brake suddenly would I drop my can of soda *gasp* or try and regain control with the can in my hand!


Hopefully they had insurance!
