What kind of car do you drive?
 
Okay, we've heard about everybody's favorite car this past month. What I'd like to know is:

What do you all actually drive?

I'm having a hard time assigning cars to the teenaged characters in the book that I'm working on. I'd really appreciate your HONEST answers.

Rockin it in luxury.

Even better... a 1988 Ford Mustang Coupe (Notchback) 5.0L 5speed... mmm V8 power... I ran a 14.8 @ 96mph in the 1/4 mile... not bad for a stock stang (cept headers)...

If you don't want to have to wait for this thread to pan out, check out the one from last May: What kind of car do you drive??

96 Ford Contour...4 dr sedan. I-4. standard. max 110 mph. (not that I've ever _tested_ that...thats just what the governor is set at *cough*)

98 Chevy truck (uhh...they have a name...but i dont know it)...3 dr. V-8. auto. max 100 mph. Best acceleration of our 3 cars :)

00 Ford Focus...4 dr sedan. Biggest I-4 Ford makes. standard. Probably 110mph...haven't checked the manual...due to the fact we don't have one. Nice car...just got it (newly used) and it had 40k miles! after TWO YEARS! Ack.

The contour is my main ride. It is my dad's car. I'm not allowed to drive the truck or the focus. The truck is being kept nice for trade-in value (we lightly haul with it...slant-loading stock trailer...3 animals I think.) Then the focus I can't drive because of the newness factor :) I would be stuck driving a 96 ford windstar but my sister totaled it, forcing us to get a semi-new car with the insurance money. Nice :) (Got $5000+ from a beat-up 96 minivan with 100k+ miles and many bumps and bruises)

I have a decent stereo in the contour. A $190 Pioneer HU...cd player...45wx4...not the best, but ehh. Then I have 2 Kenwood 5x7" front speakers. 2-way I think. Then the rear speakers are OEM. One is blown out and the other one is just about ready to go. (heh...I'm really railing on the back speakers...Only using low frequencies and have it like 75% on rear...nearly max volume)

1996 Honda Accord EX. I wish I had a lifted 4x4 Jeep Cherokee.

A dark green Saturn SL2. Okay, so it's boring, but at least I don't feel like I'm driving a tin can. But my last car was a teeny tiny teal Geo Storm. My Teal Mobile was comfortable to drive, but it was a tin can (someone once threw someone else onto the hood and did $1,000 worth of damage.
