    Work- '99 Ford Escort Wagon (dead right now while I decide if I want to spend the $150 or more to pull the head)

    Fun- '97 F150 (Fully loaded 2WD, only 70k miles- doing lots of work to the house right now). Using it to run service calls right now- 20 mpg + on the open road, really bad in town.

            I only have one car used for work, play, and everything else ... a 2009 Toyota Corolla. I get a new Corolla every three years whether I need it or not.

            My wife has a 2008 Camry, which is fully loaded with every available option. We always use it when we are out together.

            I might add that the best, or most favorite, car I have ever owned was my 1965 Pontiac GTO convertible. It was tricked out and was the car I drove during high school. Those were the days!!!

                You remembered! Yes, I backed into a dumpster and broke the rear tail light on the 2009 Corolla. Since that model was so new, it took two weeks to get a new assembly from Japan. It's fixed now ... and I am VERY careful backing up.

                      For everything I drive a 2001 Ford Mondeo 1.8 Zetec, not a bad car but then again nothing to make you go 'wow' about.

                      If I could drive anything it would be a 1968 Ford Mustang GT390 Fastback, but I expect it would be a bit hard to get a Canon iR2570Ci in the back!!!

                          1999 Toyota Camry with 131,000 on it. Wifes got a 2000 Pathfinder 4x4. I like to drive stuff into the ground ( of course taking care of it) then buy another used and repeat. I still have a 68 Ply. barracuda with a much massaged 340 and 4 speed in the garage. Motor and trans are out and due to laziness and the possibility of exhibition of speed tickets, it sits as is.

                            For work 1996 Olds Cierra v6 company pays milage
                            For going out with the wife 2002 Blazer 4x4
                            and in the process of restoring a 1968 Pontiac Firebird matching#'s as close to stock as I can get, about 80% done. Needs minor brake work, little more interior work and saving up for that 4k Paint job. But the best part is they are ALL paid for...
