2012 hyundai sonata 2.0T

 

 

I've got a '11 Sonata SE (Non-turbo)....  I sometimes wish I dished out a little extra for that turbo.

 

Well I complete the bunch.. I own a 12' Sonata Hybrid.. I was commuting 130 miles a day but now with my promotion, won't be commuting much, so now just own a real fuel efficient vehicle that badly needs rims, some tint and a speaker system (stock speakers must have been made from printer quality paper). Other than that, 210hp with the electric motor providing immediate torque and 34mpg is really not bad! 500 miles a tank

All FORDS here, no other parks in my driveway. 

 

Mine: 2000 Powerstroke F250 6" lift 37's

         1969 mach1 mustang

Hers: 2007 Mountaineer V8

         1974 Bronco soon with lift

'69 pics!!!

Walt, what's the specs on your Lightning?

I take offense to the rape van comment... 

 

 

 

That's my van the day I brought it home --  92 GMC safari  150,000+ miles

 

Being pulled by my 95 GMC suburban with 217,000 on it

 

My wife even calls it the rapist van.  I just don't understand --

 

The burb went under the knife this winter -- tore out the front independent suspension and replace with a Dana 44 on leaf springs, also changed the rear to a 14 bolt

 

Almost finished --  sitting on 35's

 

 

If it has windows its not a rape van. That's a shaggin wagon.

If it says "Free Candy" it's a sicko, if it says "Free Beer" run like hell!!!

2012 Subaru Legacy GT. 1 of 227 ever made for 2012. About 50 in my color currently exist in America. Built in America btw. Unlike many "domestics"

I drive a 1984 Chevy M1009, which is basically a bare bones k5 Blazer that came with a 3/4 suspension, 6.2L diesel, a TH400 transmission, a 12/24 volt hybrid electrical system, and a gun rack for two M-16's, made specifically for the military.

Colemans Surplus in PA had thos M1009's for sale and I was really thinking of getting one.

 

Are you using this as your everyday ride?

Yes I am. I got it in 2009 and been using as my daily driver ever since. It's quite easy to work on, though like any old car you will have to be willing to put work into it. How much work of course depends on the specific vehicle, some are in great shape, others may be in very rough shape. I did a 3000 mi trip from Montana to VA towing my mini with it last year, and it did quite well. I averaged 18 MPG for the trip by keeping my speed limited to 55 MPH.

 

 

http://www.steelsoldiers.com/forum.php Are some very good forums to find out information on them (or just about any military vehicle). Overall they are pretty good vehicles, but expect stuff to break occasionally they are all 25-30 year old truck. So if you are looking for a daily driver it may not be the best choice (like every other vehicle that age), without going over everything with a fine tooth comb.

Love the classic Mini, what year is it? doesn't look quite stock.

Well on paper it is a 72. In reality I am not sure other than it is probably not a 72. I am pretty sure someone switched vin numbers on it in the UK so they could get it road tax exempt, since the laws their only cars made in 73 and before are road tax exempt. My best guess is it is its between 74-79. Body wise the fenders are not stock, and in the picture the rear fender is missing. Interior on the other hand and engine are all out of an 1980's MG metro with some custom made fiber glass pieces thrown in for good measure.

Very Nice, I owned a 67 cooper in the Islands that I bought off a Bajan racer, Some bastardized Austin Minor block bored to 1325 cc with a temperamental weber carb, still had the Lucas system and it refused to run if there was even a cloud in the sky,no firewall except for the pressed cardboard dash panel and I had to take a torque wrench to every bolt monthly due to the horrendous West Indian roads. But when she ran....it was on rails, and quicker than a go cart,went through 2 sets of Goodyears the first year I had her. I really want one but they command a premium since the BMW version came out.

2005 Civic Hybrid in Robin's Egg Blue.

 

The Obama-Biden sticker was scraped off in 2010.  But again, pretty much the last vehicle you would expect to find a trunk full of guns.  Now that I think of it, I should have kept the Obama sticker on...

I won't joke about the Smart.  Friend had one that he loaned me several times to play with.  Only thing I didn't like was how the transmission shifted.

Daily driver - 2009 G8-GT, since they don't make Pontiacs anymore, this must be a Holden Commodore...
