I don’t drive anything fancy right now. I used to have a 1951 Ford f100. I drive a Subaru Legacy Outback presently and I’m building a low budget Yamaha xs650 bobber. I picked it up for $30. My goal is to have it going and looking sweet for under $1000.

I don’t buy expensive vehicles because of the diminishing returns. Believe it or not my favorite car ever was a 1995 Plymouth Neon. I bought it for $500. It was a 5 speed. When the head gasket went on it I was too poor to go to a mechanic so I took it apart in my garage and basically taught myself how to work on cars. The only things I go to a mechanic for now are inspections, tires, and alignments. That little car saved me so much money in the long run.

My truck is a Honda Element, but what I really like is my 07 Vespa GTS 250. I really want to do a Cafe Racer build in the next year or so..

I ride my 2007 Harley Street Bob every day rain or shine. I wouldn’t know what to do without a motorcycle.

Agreed. Actually though, I just don’t get any enjoyment out of nice cars anymore. As a kid I was big into cars, but as I got older I started to only care if my car was practical and reliable. Of course, I still drive my SUV like I stole it. 😀

Both technically mine, but I rarely drive the Mazda.
