my fleet...what's yours?

BMW X5 3.0 2002 - 19mpg : it is just there to drive, mostly weekends, but love it the most and spend the most money on.

TOYOTA 4Runner SR5 2003 - 19mpg: Most reliable truck for winters, i drive it the most during winter months, love it blasting through heavy snow.

HONDA CIVIC 2007 LX - 30mpg: drive to work everyday, save my $ on gas, loving it, i bought it 2 months ago and have saved $300 on gas since then.

Yeah...most of us have them listed in sig or profile or the usual
rantings we do, ...

-'01 X5 3.0 5 Spd manual, Sport, etc. 58K miles: some around
town, probably 75% from runs up and down the interstates,
on the Right Coast. 20.2 mpg on the 'puter, seldom reset in
nearly 6 yrs.
-'03 Honda CR-V EX, IL 4, 47K miles; theCEO's pos. One of
the crummiest cars I've ever owned, beyond the good motor.
15-18 mpg daily driving, 22-23 on highway, eats a set of tires
annually, more squeaks and rattles than an old pickup, 3rd
world interior and "quality", was made in England.
-'02 Corvette Vert, 360 HP, 6 Spd Manual, Z51 susp., loaded.
Hauls azz, overall mpg in the mid-high 20s, does 30-32 mpg
on trips, trunk holds 2 sets of golf clubs and soft luggage for
week long trips, corners like a go cart, almost M'cycle fast,
maybe the best car I've ever owned. I can count the glitches
on one hand in 5+ years and 28K miles.
-'87 Honda Hurricane 1000 cc. Bought new 20 yrs ago,
low tech by today's sled stds, but still hauls azz and is
in remarkable shape. Turn key, go fast, have fun. 36K miles.
Avg 45 mpg on any grade gas.
-94 Honda Gold Wing Aspencade, 40K miles, been across the
country 4 times, all over the Maritimes, upper Quebec, New England,
etc. 40 mpg avg., when loaded. Fairly turn key, but needs tires,
brakes, etc. etc. Would love a new GW.
-75 Harley Davidson FXE Shovelhead, elec and kick start. My
first new motorcyle, bought it at Jake's HD in Detroit 5-'75.
60+K miles. 45 mpg. Showing her age and needs an overhaul
and cosmetic surgery. It sticks out in the parking lot at any
M'cycle gathering, as it's not lost in the sea of newer HDs.
A dinosaur of a motorcycle but she has soul...
Used only for short cruises, lol!

Dave, so every time you bought a new bike you never sold the old one, right? way to go. I would have loved having been able to do that too.

01' BMW e53 X5
06' Infiniti FX35
95' BMW e34 525i
04' Mercedes-Benz W220 S500
95' Mercedes-Benz W140 S420

The two 95's are commute cars to and from our house in Philla. And soon, we will have one of the three: Quattroporte, Flying Spur or Continental GT. Just a matter of which the pops chooses.

For track duty, an '05 Lotus Elise, an '01 Porsche 996, and an '03 Honda S2000. I use the S2k on the street a lot, too.

For evenings and weekends, an '01 Honda CBR600 F4i. For long trips, a '93 Honda ST1100.

For longer trips, the '02 X5 and an '01 Audi S4 wagon. I daily drive the Audi quite a bit, too.

For towing and tailgating, an '00 Dodge Ram V10. For off-roading and the city, a '97 Wrangler. Finally, an '89 Honda CRX Si "beater".
