What do you drive?

[Pagan]

Now we're talking. As you make more power, the trick will be making it stick. It took me 2 years to get it right, but now it will do 0-60 in 2.2 seconds with the front wheels about 12" in the air.

Sorry if this is a little off topic, but cars are one of my many passions, besides Disney, that is.

I'm already having problems. Need some suspension work next year.

2.2??? How on earth did you get that time (1.8 quicker than me) with only 80 more horses? What kind of gearing do you have? And that's a heavy car too unless you've done some weight reduction!

C'mon, share the secrets!

Me - 2007 F350 Crew cab diesel dually w/8' bed - about 25' long and 12 MPG!

Mine = 2006 Silver Dodge 2500 MegaCab 4x4 w/Cummins 5.9L diesel that gets 22.1 mpg around town. Not too shabby for a 6,000 pound truck.

DW = 2003 sage green Chrysler T&T "Minnie"-van.

And like Ian, I've got one of those floating money pits sitting in the driveway.

Ok, here goes...

I drive a 2002 Silver Ford Focus Wagon.
My Fiance drives a 2004 Ford Ranger.
My Mom drives a 2007 Blue Ford Focus.

Fiance's family has a ton of cars though.
-Ford Model A
-Ford Bronco 1986 I think..maybe earlier...
-Ford Expedition 2002 I think
-Ford F150
-Ford F250
-Ford Taurus
-Ford Winstar
And a White Box Truck (Work Truck)

My fiance's brother always jokes that when he pulls up to the house he's pulling into "Sage's Ford" with all the cars they have there.

I have a 2006 white Honda Civic that gets 42 mpg on the highway! We are taking it on our next trip to the World.

All those Fords and not ONE Mustang???

I know the Cummins get better mileage, but I also can't seem to keep my foot out of it

It's all about weight transfer, good tires, and a well prepped track, in that order. Gears are 4:10, I cross the line at 7k rpm and 130 mph. Its also about torque. I made 701hp at the crank, but also 680 ft/# of torque. There's no replacement for displacement

Okay I figured you had some tall gears. I'm sure you're also either running slicks or drag radials too. Impressive!

My time was run on street tires and the stock 3.31's. I wonder what it'll be when I get some taller gearing and put some drag tires on.

Gotta love torque!

The last vehicle purchased for "me" was a 1992 Chevy S10 pickup. I drove it until the "Red Rocket" laid on it's side in the parking lot and died.

Now I drive my wife's hand me downs, currently a Ford Windstar.

[Tinksalot]

I drive a 2008 black Honda CRV. I love it!

[DNS]

2008 Honda CRV. Same as my last two! This one green, red before it, blue before that one.

[Iluvpooh]

2003 Honda Accord and love it!

Same, Did you buy yours at Treadwell Honda too? I have 137,000 miles on it now.
Upgrading to a new Pilot in February, but still keeping my Accord.

[IloveDisney71]

'07 Hyundai Sonata - I downsized a couple of years ago after driving SUV's for years. It's not my dream car but it's pratical.
I'd love the new Camaro...a girl can dream!

[Beach Club Babe]

As for me, I drive a 2004 White Chrysler Pacifica and absolutely hate it! I can't wait for the next one! DH drives a 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada and absolutely loves it. It's his baby, he'll drive it until either it gives out, or Courtney can get him to pass it on to her. She loves it almost as much!

Ugh. I don't blame you. I rented one of those once and it was the worst vehicle I ever drove!

[RedSoxFan]

I have one of those floating money pits too. However, it's back at the dealer --- they're selling it for us. I hope it sells as DH already traded in his 2007 2500 chevy truck for a Toyota Camry!!

[Pagan]

You should rent a PT Cruiser. You'll change that designation!

[EpcotChic23]

2007 Nissan Murano...I love it

[disney obsessed]

My first car was a 1970 Barracuda. Boy do I wish I still had that! Saw one sell at Barrett/Jackson for 2 million last year.

Currently we have a 2006 Mini, a brand new Soul and a 2003 Envoy. I think I am getting old...

I used to have a '73 'Cuda 340. LOVED that car. It now sits on my DW's finger as a 10 year anniversary ring.
