Show me your ride

Well I figured it would be cool to see what everyone is using to get to and from places with. Since I'm so stoked about my cars I will start.

My old car



My new car

Ooh, I love the color of your cars. I see your old car sittin there in the drive...so now do you have two cars?


Well, here's my car. Got it for graduating high school, it's a piece of crap, but hey...it works. NEVER buy a Volkswagen. This is a really old picture when I had David Bowie plates. Now I have wildlife conversationalist plates and a Cure sticker on there. Before this car, I had an old blue '91 Pontiac Grand Prix.

Here's mine:

Well technically we have more then that. In the backyard my brother has his broken down honda. We have a '02 taurus and a '98 buick that we are cleaing out and going to sell because they aren't working. My old car we are keeping as a back up car in case something happens to my moms or mine. My new car is an '06 Ford Fusion and my mom has a gray '07 chevy impala.

^^B!tchin. You must get a tad annoyed when people want to bum a ride from you. :p

Yep... and here's mine.

They're putting art on the sides of some of them, at least.

On evenings/weekends I do take my husband's car, though.

Yeah, it's not just my car. Every person I've known who's had a VW has hated it (especially Jettas) and usually they end up having to scrap it. Just recently, I needed the whole cooling system replaced, along with the timing belt, the headlights, the horn and the windshield wiper motor replaced/repaired. Also, the whole thing is made from cheap plastic, so I have big ol' cracks and all over the place on it. The last set of repairs cost me 1,300 bucks. I looked up problems with VWs in message boards, etc. and found pages upon pages of problems with them. Many I've had, many I can hope to not have. So, no, I really would not recommend a VW, no matter how cute they are.


Red--I love your buses! Some of ours here in DC are covered in paintings of foliage to get people to 'go green' by riding them. Too bad they don't have any stops near my house.

Ok, so my ride it wacked, but I love it!

My Friends call it the Vanabe:


And it's got personality. Even with the license plate blocked out you could still figure out who it is easily....

^^ Yes, I would hope they'd be better! I've known some very nice Beamers.


And DH, your van is adorable! It's totally an 18 year old hippie vehicle.

I'm not a big hippie lover myself.... But I'm totally loving the van.

Well I'll join Red...

Wait, I'm lying.
I got a new ride....
'CLICK ME'

Actually mother's and in a different color, but same model:

I'm liking everyones ride. Moon that is a hot bike. I'm expecting crazy pics with stickers and side mirrors all over it

I'm practically the only one with a working vehicle.

I feel so out of place now. >.>

^^ You are a truly lucky Pontiac owner! My parents have two 2001 Grand Prix's (red and black 4 doors) and they have spent tens of thousands of dollars on repairs on them over the past 8 years. Maybe you ride with Lady Luck.

Hey hey hey. My new ride runs very well thank you very much. I'm proud of it. It may not have the class of my old car or the flash of saying the name of the cd playing or cup holder lights, but it treats me well.

As long as it gets you to where you gotta go without falling apart

DH: I love the back of your Vanabe!

Thanks guys! Lots of people seem to love it...I get people tailgaiting me just to read my bumper stickers!

And Maldechia, mine runs too. It's just not fancy and it's old.

I have a wonderful Honda Civic but I have to wash it up a bit to take a picture; it's needing a washing anyways because my mum is getting onto me for it.

^^I can't wait to see it... What color?
