Like some others on the board, used to be into cars more. That is until I started riding. I had a 91 MR2 Turbo, and a 98 Ford Taurus SHO. Now I drive my wife's 94 Accord LX with 177K, and geting 34-36 mpg. Couldn''t be happier. Because if don't feel like being Beige, I got the Rockster! Thought I would miss the MR2 after I sold it, but getting 43mpg while dusting off sports cars cleared that up quickly!

Ford F150 six cylinder, stick shift---slug.
I get my mileage, and use, out of the truck.
I get my adrenaline from the bike.
I live for a little adrenaline. Give me more!

I have a few rules when buying cars, never buy American, always buy German. Have a Mercedes E320 at the moment - might consider a BMW 5 Series or Audi next time around.

Who needs a car. I ride nuttin' but two wheels--my R and my mountain bike get me to work. My 02' R has 39k on 'er now and she's purrin' like a kitten. I love that bike. If I bought a car, she'd kick me out of the house. Love them German women.

I must hang my head in shame...I drive a '99 Saturn wagon, which only looks cool when I have my dog in the car with me. (I refer to it as the "Mommymobile" though I have no kids.) But my garage also boasts an '03 Honda Shadow ACE Deluxe, my first bike which I haven't sold yet. I've had it out twice since I got my Rockster in June.
I really want a 4-wheeled Beamer bad. Would buy American if Detroit could turn out a luxury car that performed. They just don't get it .
