The Car Thread

current car: 92 ford Crown Vic
next car: later model Crown Vic (with police package)
dream car: Mercury Marquis 74 to 78 or Lincoln Mk IV 74-76 (with the 460 CID of course)

I used to have one, but scrapped it due to a thoroughly rusted out roof.

when it comes to cars, bigger is better and biggest is best

I'm still driving my old Ford F150.

My baby is a 1980 Ford Bronco that I'm currently customizing. So far it has a rebuilt 302 CID V8, a rebuilt transmission, new upholstery on the seats, a six inch suspension lift, 35 inch tires, a Flowmaster performance exhaust system (it's loud enough to set off car alarms

) and a roll cage (you can't see the roll cage unless I take off the back part of the roof):

I'm not planning on getting another car for myself. I will drive this one until I'm dead, and then I might be buried in it. My wife and I just bought a car for her, though, so she'll eventually get another one. I want a Volkswagen Jetta TDI.

My dream car is my Bronco when I'm done customizing it. I'm going to be getting Mickey Thompson rims and off-road tires, putting on a gear drive, a new stereo system, get it repainted (the same colors as now, but just new paint), Line-X in the cargo area, and maybe a louder exhaust system. I have a C6 transmission now (a three speed automatic), but I might trade up to a tranny with overdrive because it kinda sucks getting 9 miles per gallon on the highway.

What is your current car?
I don't have a car (or driving license) yet so I either use public transport or my own smelly feet

What do you think is going to be your next car?
First I'd need to get me a driving license and then I'll think about it again. I'd like my first car to be small, clean and economical (when it comes to fuel).
But getting a driving license here in this country is very expensive...

Finally, what is your dream car ?

The DeLorean DMC-12

If you drive too fast, you'll go back in time. How's that for a safety feature?

Do you ever hit those bugs on the freeway that leave a mustard colored splat on your window? If so, do you consider that to be dirt or just a topping?
