Driving my kids home from school one day, I spotted the car of my desire.

I said out loud, "That lady is driving my red Tahoe."

My smart aleck son from the back of the van said, "Hey, you're not supposed to covet your neighbor's goods."

I had never heard of the DKW, but the picture makes me think of a cross between a Thunderbird and the Jetson’s flying car. It seems form lost out to function.

Double edged answer here. The most beautiful musclecar ever in my eyes is a 1966 Corvette 427 4 speed. In my own past I have registered 51 cars to myself and I only want back 2 of them. My 1974 Lincoln Continental Mark 4 and my 1971 Firebird. Ah memories....
P.S. There was a time when I had no place to store a 22 ft long 10 MPG Connie and I was on the edge of being evicted from my apartment....so....I....sold...my....Connie. For 250 bucks with 60,000 miles in 1998

OUCH! That had to hurt.

[Army Air Corps]

Isn’t that a still from Route 66?

1967 Shelby Mustang GT550

(just kidding, I drove a 54 Chevy with Powerglide)

I feel ya on the Connie. All I ever had was muscle cars in my youth so I miss most all of them.

Ok so those are my dream cars. I bought a 2002 Escalade EXT 5 months ago and the wife is already sick of me saying “Best purchase ever” every time I get out of it. runs awesome at 165k 345 horse motor leaks no oil and runs like a raped ape. It transforms from a crew cab truck to a 2 seat truck with an 8 foot bed. What a great beast.

Maloo HSV as well. I call the Escalade EXT “The Big Maloo”

Wish I had a barn full of every car I crashed and sent to the junkyard in my misspent youth.

I had to drive my fathers 1954 Chevy pickup, with starter on the floorboard.

I swear that I can hear here idle just by looking at the picture.

[Army Air Corps]

...hear her idle...

[ResponseAbility]

I burned through tires like a cookie monster and every road was a potential race track, but I only wrecked one car. I got lucky I tell ya!

What’s yours? You start a thread and don’t share your dream car?

A friend who works in banking has her father living w/ them. He has dementia and he tells her about the flying cars he sees & the beautiful girls in bikinis by the pool.

Life could be worse.

[ResponseAbility]

Almost bought a 62 Corvette in 78 for $2000 that just needed a paint job. Hindsight is truly 2020.

An old Land Rover.
