I've been flat on my back now for, hell I don't know(a couple of days?)48 hours and frankly without the ability to at least read this insanity I would have done nothing but imagine what MP and mrfisher(maybe even mrnogood and meinarse)were doing to further their romance.
Having moved to a rural community i was forced to "Do as the romans do". Got rid of a couple of city type vehicles and bought a pair of these(see link). Wonder what the average hobbyist/providers drive. What's YOUR fancy? Caddy's? Trucks? Muscle cars? QUE?
I really should have bought something along the lines of what you bought, it would have been more practical for an oilman than what I ended up buying. I couldn't help myself after driving it so I bought an Infinity FX50. It was either that or an M5 BMW, but I really couldn't imagine showing up on a lease driving a "beemer" lol
Except for the half dozen field vehicles (Fords) I bought last year, this is my first "non Cadillac" I have bought in the last twenty years or so. I thought briefly about buying another SRX, but I needed all wheel drive, somehow being the boss and having to have your Cadillac towed out of a cow pasture just sends the wrong message to the hands. lol
4x4 is a must. I live in a smaller town and nobody drives BMWs ect. or any of that shit. Becuase their are no shops to have those worked on and nobody cares about standing out and being flashy.
I prefer to drive my Ford F-350 Crew Cab Diesel. Gets me anywhere in the woods. Good in the snow. And I can pull about any trailer I need to. Plus the back of the bed has enough room for me and a lady!
I'm one of those guys that buys a new car and drives it for about 3 years or so, sell it, then buy another one. I don't lease because theirs no profit. Anyways, because of this hobby, I am now force to drive economically. I am sure every hobbyist agree. So, I am a Mercedes kind of guy. I own several cars. I had to sell my 2007 SL500 this year because it was expensive to maintain. Each wheel cost $500 dollars, an average oil change cost $140, lights, brakes, and parts was extremely expensive, premium gas, insurance was ridiculous, everything was adding up, and I couldn't afford to drive it anymore. I did enjoyed it when I had it though, that's what I used to attract my SO. I just recently sold my 2009 S500, that was also an expensive vehicle to maintain, and wouldn't recommend buying it unless you got the income to sustain it. That car used premium gas like crackheads use crack. Anyways, because of my recent hobbying, I am now force to drive the 2011 E350. Its a great car, good on gas, and somewhat inexpensive to maintain. Hey, I like hobbying, and that's the financial burden I had to deal with.
Think about it. You have a truck and Wednesday you get a call...
MP- mrfisher! Wassup buddy! Whatcha doin' this weekend? MF- Not moving your dumbass. I got a date. MP- Aw come on man! Just in the morning. We'll get it knocked out, you go get ready for the lady du jour, and I'll unpack my own shit. Just need help with the heavy shit. MF- Nope. Been waiting for this for a long time. Might strain something important. MP- Alright. How about this. I come over and bring you my car and I use your truck for the day? MF- Are you drunk already? So I can go get it out of impound cuz you stopped by the boobie bar and had to be carried out? Besides, your car is a piece of shit and I have a certain image to uphold you barbarian. MP- Well, what if I paid you then? MF- How much? MP- I don't know. How much is it worth to you? MF- Pay for my date? MP- Who you seeing? MF- Well, they aren't cheap. MP- They?! MF- Yeah. I have a duo. I told you about this the other day but you were drunk. Again. MP- Uhh, think a moving company might be the way to go. Cheaper. Ooo! Wonder what OSP's doing this weekend! He just bought a truck. He's only a couple states away...
Even though the horsepower was similar, the Durango felt like a pig compared to the Infinity. It was probably better suited for what I need for the field, but fuck it, at least I didn't buy the M5.
Yeah, well it guzzles gas like a pig, but I love it anyway. Just a mite rough on the pocketbook. Which is why I need a smaller car for every day use and leave the truck for the deliveries.
I think I am just spoiled by driving fast cars, I have been driving rentals for several weeks now, and I can't stand the lack of guts. I think my XLR-V Caddy spoiled me. lol
I was going to buy a pair of Audi's, A Q7 and an A7, but the Infinity works just fine either as a city car or a field vehicle. I just hate to tear up such a nice ride, but oh well. lol
Then we can drive to Edmonton. They have a crazy upgrade fee to rent a Mercedes at the airport, plus the airport wireless blocks TER, so I think we should drive.
It's far at this time of year. Basically go north from Idaho (so you have to drive REALLY fast). If we wait until winter, it's insanely far. Oh and really fucking cold.
A nasty old Dodge Ram 2500 pickup with an 8 liter V-10 (tows like a monster, carbon footprint like Sasquatch) A sweet little Audi S5. Sticks to the road like glue. Chicks like it, too.
I have a bit of lead foot so a certain muscle car works well for me and the G37 is a smooth ride. Just as long as is not a VW(terrible). I'll leave those trucks up to you guys some of them are huge!
A 2011 Lexus 450h Hybrid suv(white), a DL sedan (black...when I don't wanna draw attention), and my weekend convertible (I would name it, but they're very uncommon). Ugh, I'm very wasteful on cars and women...but love being single! Exactly why I vowed never to get married!
It is old but it has been rebuilt several times and is in better then new condition. I love this truck. I started my business in it, It got me my wife. I think my son was likely conceived in the truck. My truck was part of every good thing in my life It is my baby and as long as it can be kept running it will be my main ride. I hope to give it to my son one day.
