The Wives' Cars

[sidney411]

My truck is the farm/family/commuting/church/everything else vehicle. I would like to get a little something for commuting that gets better gas mileage but I can't afford another car/insurance payment.

Wife drives an 2003 Dodge Durango. I drive a 2004 Dodge 2500 with the Cummins.

 

[Chuckie]

A 1996 Toyota Tacoma 4X4 4 cylinder PU Ext cab. Around 80,000 miles

Wifes car is a 2003 Trail Blazer, I drive a 92 ford 4x4, With the higher cost of gas I bought a Chev. Aveo. Its a ugly little sucker. I drive 60 miles per day to my day job. Truck gets 15 mpg, car gets 34. I reconed at $11,000 new it would pay for itself and keep the miles off of my truck. It a hatchback with the rear seats folded up I still can get a few supplies in there. Just don't try to cross a muddy pasture with it. It don't sit as bad as some of the other compacts, but it is ugly. Heck I don't care, expecially while passing the pumps.

Farm truck is a 1991 F-150 with ~200,000 miles on it, I don't like to talk about the gas milage on it.

Better half has a 2000 Taurus with ~90,000 miles on it, it gets about 28 MPG on the highway, which is where she keeps it most of the time.

I drive a 2001 Ranger back & forth to work, it has ~65,000 miles on it, 27 MPG on the highway.

My old girl drives a Dodge Ram 1500, quad cab, long box, 4X4.

At 5 foot 1 - it was funny to watch her hike up a skirt to climb in behind the wheel. Thats why I had to put running boards on it.

Even after 26 years she has mighty fine legs!

:lol:

Golly, Bez, a 26 YO ought to have pretty good legs! (you dirty old man) :lol:

Let my wife drive my '94 Bronco this morning, kind of makes me nervous. Paid 600 bucks for it last year, I'm afraid that if I let her drive something that nice very often she'll be after me to get her one.
