Wow, your Mom was a happening chick back in the day huh! Honestly though I've ridden in a vette of that vintage and it's kinda cool but they rode like a logging truck! I do prefer the earlier years of that style when they still have the chrome bumpers and stuff,the later years didn't look nearly as good imho.

Also how cool would it be to have that old Hot pink Van in the last pic! Pimpin' !

Default What other "rides" are in your family?

I noticed at least one other member that, like me, owns a 3rd gen and a Jeep Liberty. Just curious, what else is in your garage and do you prefer riding in any of them over your truck?

Below is my Jeep, Mazda, and bike. All belong to me (well bike still belongs to bank) but the Jeep is my wife's ride, the Mazda is my daughter's, and the bike is mine. I love my bike and love riding it but none of these rides as good and as comfortable to me as my Ram. The Mazda is fun but the ride is from S@#t!

the rest of my family doesn't like anything that doesn't have a $10k luxury upcharge

2000 lexus rx300. i don't like anything about this car except that it's AWD
1999? lexus es300. nice car, real smooth and plenty of go, but no character. soon getting traded for an 08/09 x5 or rx350...

but truth be told, both have had nothing wrong with them. the es is at 133K with the original timing belt (ticking bomb). the rx is at 180k and has leaky cam and crank seals (haven't been changed since 100k along with the timing belt. other than that, they tun like new.
