What's your ride?

[alemonkey]

Are you ready for this badass ride????


I drive a 96 Mazda Protege:rockin:

It's a hand me down from my wife after she got a new car.....160,000 miles, with a big dent in it where my wife backed our other car into it.

Plus, the check engine light is on because the catalytic converter has a hole in it. I'm too cheap to fix it.

Yeah, I get all the chicks.

Dude,

Just put new tires on my wife's Wrangler yesterday and 2 of the old tires are in good shape... they're factory upgrades (225/75R15s). If you know anyone that wants them, they can have them. We went with slightly larger tires this time so there's really no reason for us to keep them.

 

[olllllo]

I already wanna lift it. I think I'm going to forego the Budget Boost this time and do an OME spring lift--that way I can keep close to the stock ride. This baby rides much better than my old X. Night and day.

I upgraded from a 91 Wrangler and initially I had that urge too, but the ride is so much better and quite frankly, I haven't run into a situation where I really needed it. (Still want though) I do some rock crawling, but it is normally a means to get to point B. I love hiking and Backpacking in the desert.

Love my Jeep, but it's starting to get expensive to drive it the 50 mile round-trip to work each day (75 miles when I have class, and that's twice a week). $3.17 for gas is KILLING me. I'm starting to fantasize about a hybrid Civic.

You better hurry up and finish that MBA so that you can afford to maintain that jeep

Great looking 'Stang. What year?

Its an 89 with an honest 74K miles on it.

Yes 74K.

I have done a bit of work on it (heads, headers, intake etc) but I am putting all my real money into a stroked 351W that I have taken out to 408 and will be running a Weiland blower on.

I have yet to decide what car to buy to put it in, I am currently looking for a good choice and have narrowed it down to a 68-71 Cougar I think. But then, I change my mind quite often so you never know what it might turn out to be.

I will try to post some pics when the motor is more complete.

I intend it to have a high RIF (Ricer Intimidation Factor).

Cheers,

knewshound

nice ET glad to hear all motor guys still exist! Must have been a fun build.

This isn't my car specific (no pic handy) but the exact model/color less the top rack. 89 325ix (4 wheel drive). Great in snow when I lived in it! Have a Jetta and Tribute for daily use. This is my "paid for toy". Bugger rides kind of stiff until you get past 80 then it's smooth sailing.

 

[chillHayze]

^^^ cool AWD E30!

Ready for some action? Jump in my car.

I can't believe I just watched that whole vid. I guess I was expecting some lesbian love somewhere in that. Man, that was bad. Is there a German version with Dirk?

 

[DrewsBrews]

AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH... my EYES.... my EARS...

 

[sirsloop]

yeah, that was simply horrible.

Man, I hope Hasselhoff's in on the joke....

I was so intrigued by the 4 door CJ that I got out and took a dozen or so pics. Hoping I wouldn't get shot or nothing.

It has IH scout running gear. Bodywork etc. looks factory.

Damn! Is that a Powerstroke?

yup

best pull of the day was 351 HP / 765 TQ

since my buddy was testing his programming, and paying for the dyno time, he got the best sheet.

whoever has that silver T/A ... drooooool.....

I would love to see a "Smokey and the Bandit 2006" or something like that, with a modern Bird, and ancient Jerry Reed and Burt Reynolds...

then again, without Jackie Gleason, it wouldn't be the same. Mebbe John Goodman as his distant cousin... ???

Just saw this thread and decided to resurrect...

Here is my 2002 TJ - its a work in progress

You can barely see our hemi-powered Grand Cherokee sitting right behind it. And if my Jeep wasn't enough stress relief - here is what I drive when I REALLY need to get my mind off things

 

[brentg]

this used to be an XJ......

built it, wheeled the hell out of it, sold it to a friend......

 

[Exo]

You all need to sell yer' Jeeps and buy an X! *ducks*

Ok, ok it's my wife's...but it's still a sweet ride!
