My wife and I have a brand new trailblazer!!!! but my son is wishing we would buy a Ford Mustang!!!! that's all I hear about...Mustang!!!! not happening, but even with all the bells and wistles these new trucks and cars have these days I still miss my ol' Dodge Dart back in the day, ugly dull brown, not much to look at, but boy that car saw alot of good times ha!:D:):rolleyes:;)...Sammy
 
I just purchased a Ford Escape in February.
 
We have a G6 bought from new 2 years ago. Wouldn't buy another even if Pontiac were still around, we have had nothing but trouble with it.
 
Replaced the wife's 10 year old Subaru with a 2010 Subaru. Even though we live in the desert , we do get snow in the winter Without AWD or 4WD I would not be able to get out of the driveway at times. I still have a 82 Mercedes SL, but it does not get out much in the winter.
 
My wife and I drive Jeeps. We replaced our Jeep Grand Cherokee 3 years ago with a Jeep Commander, and we also have a Liberty. When we eventually decide to replace the Commander, which is as good an SUV as I have ever had, we will probably go back to another Grand Cherokee.

In the last 15 years, I have always driven Jeeps, and I have never had a single problem.:)
 
2003 Ford Ranger. Decent enough mileage (about 22 mpg), but I picked it more for the hauling capability, the track record I heard from other Ranger owners, and also because it was the right size to fit in my garage (the F150 was too big).

Prost!

I just purchased a 2010 Mercury Mariner 6 cyl this past Monday :).
Mike
 
1999 Dodge Dakota.Had this for 5 years.Was always a Ford man and still am.

97 Chevy Blazer. 110,000 miles+. It's a heap, but it runs (most of the time) and it is long ago paid for. -- Al
 
Other then driving my wife nuts:):) I have two Mazda's. Both are Mazda 6's. 2001&2005. I love Mazda and most of Ford design is a Mazda design first.
 
I'm a Toyota man. Currently driving a 2006 Tacoma truck, and a 2009 Corolla. Neither was included in the recent recalls :) My last truck was a 1990 Toyota, which I had for 16 years. It had almost 240,000 miles on it. I ended up giving it to "Cars for Kids" because the AC crapped out. They actually received 1400.00 bucks for it in an auction.
 
2005 Ford Focus wagon. (Muskets fit in the back) It's still running OK with 125,000 miles.
 
I have a 2005 Chevy SSR sitting under a cover in the garage, I am currently looking for a 2006 6speed to joint it.:)

New vehicles are far to expense nowdays! Most cost more then my first house
did back in the 1970's!:eek:

For those prices, I choose to purchase something that has a chance at retaining its value!:)
 
I drive a SUV 4 wheel drive 1998 Dodge Durango with 248,000 miles and it drives like new. I take the money from a Car payment and spend it on TOY SOLDIERS every month !!!!
 
I downgraded after spending all my money on toy soldiers...
