Anyone drive a BMW? I've got a 5 series. Pretty nice ride. Just need to put in some speakers that sound decent.

http://i1217.photobucket.com/albums/dd381/Jysen/Mobile Uploads/05-05-09_1653.jpg My 1st car when I was 19. 1987 Toyota MR2. Up until 09 when it got beyond expensive. Motor blew, rebuilt blew twice. She wasnt perfect, but to own a 2 door, rear engine sports car, with T-Tops was amazing for a guy growing up basically poor. But now I own a 97 Malibu... go figure lol. But I'd really love to get the last MR series that came out in early 2000's, and one day I swear I will.

Love the truck. Absolutely jealous of that kind of mileage! Almost drove down to Texas last summer to buy a '00 V6 TRD Off-Road with only 39,000 miles for $12,000... just couldn't pull the trigger, got cold feet.

Definitely miss my last first-gen Taco. I'm a sales manager at a Toyota dealership, so I'm all about Tacomas/Hiluxes, T100s and Tundras. Bought an '11 regular cab 4x4 4 cyl 5 speed in August. Missed my old one so much! On my third Tacoma. Had two 4Runners and a Land Cruiser.

Ugh, miss my Volkswagens and old Toyotas.... growing up sucks!

I love my car... I just can't wait until I'm done paying for it.

Thanks man. The gift was unexpected (and bittersweet). My wife's grandpa bought this truck several years ago, then had a stroke. He drove quite a bit less after that...

Recently, he's suffered a second stroke, and the odds of him driving again are slim @ best. Wife and I have been over at her grandparents house at least once/day since Saturday just to try to make things easier. They're great ppl.

I test drove a truck on Monday. Currently driving a '99 Monte Carlo that's falling apart. The engine is still good, but the rest of the car is garbage for someone who doesn't know much about auto-mechanics. That same day, her grandma told me not to buy the truck...and two days later, I drove this home.

I'd trade it for his health in a heartbeat...but hands were kind of tied. He can't speak very well, but looked at my mother-in-law a few days ago and said "give it to him" pretty plainly.

Like I said, I'm thankful for the vehicle, but it's very bittersweet.











On another note, I got a '99 Monte Carlo for sale, Excellent Condition. Anyone interested.
