Thread: Your car.

Lol I am more like A but it seems like I live in my car sometimes so it is my home away from home. I drive a Kia Apectra and it gets great gas mileage but if I was rich I would probably get a hybrid or wait to see what new kind of cars come from this oil crisis.

What about you Legend?

For now it is definitely (a). The car I drive now ('05 Toyota Corolla) was a gift from my folks for going to college and it has great mileage. I never consider it to be MY car since I didn't pay a cent for it. So right now it is a simple tool to get me from point a to b, however that's not to say that I am thankful for a relatively new car to drive around.

I think when I get older and is financially better the answer would be (b). It doesn't have to be a crazy 60k dollar car, but got to be good and still have great mileage :P

To me, all kinds of transport are there for their functionality. How they look is a distant second for me.
If I were rich enough I'd let myself be driven to places most of the time. But when I'd want to I'd do it myself. Being rich is no excuse for not learning how to drive properly.

Well definitely "A" for me, I mean, when I first got my drivers license and my car I was just like... cool... Yeah very anticlimactic. Don’t get me wrong, I love my car and I take good care of it but I don’t see it as a badge at all, but then again not really as tool either. It’s some where in between. I drive around in a Ford Focus that is well taken care of that I got from a friend of ours. What can I say I am a bargen hunter and in these times of gas prices the Focus was something I needed to get because I can get 30 miles to the gallon and it has a 12 gallon tank. My first car I had was a 1970 24Z. That was a bad arse car. It looked cool, had great gas millage and handled very well. But unfortunately the engine blew and to get another engine, and to pay the people to drop it in and their time and all that gets really expensive really fast. So the next car I had was a used Landrover that we already owned. I will admit, the thing was built like a tank and despite how old it was it still ran very well. The only thing I didn’t like about it was because it was a gas guzzler.

For me, my truck is just a way to get from point a to b. I drive a Ford Ranger XLT and it gets good enough gas mileage. It's ok for me but I'm not basing my accomplishments on a vehicle. If I was rich and was able to buy it, I'd buy a Lamborghini and I would drive it just to climb out of the doors that lifts up! XD

For me, it's both A AND B. I mean...driving is a HUGE stress reliever for me. I love it QUITE a bit. My friend Will told me while drivig before "Shane...once you learn stick-shift(Which I CAN'T stand), you'd probably be one of the greatest drivers I know."

Another thing Tim said about me "See, Shane is the designated Driver. At parties he is the one who its and watches laughing at others. Then when times come, he takes people home. He jsut drives, doesn't even have to be his car, could be a semi. He'll drive hose people home."

Now, my car also has these functions as well

For me, car #1 is "A". For errands, work etc. It's just a tool. Car #2 is "B". This one is my toy that I assembled from a pile of parts. It's the machine I escape from life's unpleasantness in.
