    I have a 1996 silver Kia Rio LX with about 24,000 miles on it. We call it the 'baby beemer' because on an angle with the right squint it does look like one

    Old Man has a 1991 silver Volvo 740 with miles... How many? No one knows!

    We have a 1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty Super Cab pickup with over 100,000 miles on it.

    And a 2004 Chevy Blazer. We just drive whichever one we want at the time. The Blazer is supposed to be mine but dh usually drives it to work because it gets better mileage.

    Until dh totalled it hitting a deer on Halloween night we also had a Toyota Echo that he drove to work.

    2005 CTS, with 60K on it. I usually have several at one time, but two years ago I started cuttng back to one.

    Favorite car of all time was a 04 DeVille. It had heated and A/C seats and heated steering wheel. It was so nice to go out on a morning when the temp was sub zero and turn the seat and steering wheel on for my trip to work.

    2001 Honda Civic, white (under the dirt). Haven't looked at mileage for quite a while, but somewhere between the 40,000 - 45,000 mile maintenance. New big parking lot dings on the driver's door. Oh well.

    99 Honda CRV, just turned the big 110k miles! It has the ugliest paint job. I don't care when someone dings me since I got 1k off the blue book when I bought it because of such. Darn good car if you keep up on the valve adjustments.

    Future DH has a Ford Taurus, not sure of the year but we have a constant concern it's going to go caput and will be more expensive to fix then the trade-in value would be on a newer vehicle. Has about 125k miles.

    Dh drives a 2004 Chevy Silverado Ext. Cab, 105,000 miles on it and I drive a 1996 Dodge Intrepid with 185,000 miles on it.

    Both are great vehicles although I will be getting a different car come spring...if I find something I want.

    I used to be a car nut, but could care less anymore.Have a 94 Cougar XR7 Special Edition 87,000 miles, bought new.Needs worked on so don't drive it,need to get it fixed but don't want to spend the money.So I drive a 1988 Chevy Sprint, which is really a Suzuki,not sure but the guy I bought it from said he thinks it has almost 400,000 miles on it.He won it from his uncle in a poker game.It runs like top,knock on wood,but with that many miles I'm afraid to take it very far out of town.

    I drive a 2004 Dodge Grand Caravan...not sure how many miles, probably at least 80k.

    My DH drives a 1997 Buick Regal. It's pretty much on its last legs....not reliable....so we mainly share the van right now when possible.

    I drive a 2006 Kia Optima LS. It has just under 30K miles on it and is a pretty biege color. I will drive it until it dies.

    Hubby drives a 2006 Pontiac GTO something something something, a very pretty red color. There were only ninety-something of that particular car/model/specs made and as a result, his car has retained it's value very well.

    In the winter he drives a 1986 Chevy Celebrity that has caulking in the floorboard and rust stops. It's a beaut.

    I'm almost ashamed to say what I drive. Well here goes- a 2009 chevrolet impala.And no ,it is NOT paid for.Bought it in March of2009,it has about 5000miles on it. My last car was a 2000 pontiac grand am . I traded it in for my new car. It had 75,000 miles on it. I don't drive a whole lot , I live in Ohio and have relatives in Pa that we visit abot once a year. I take good care of my cars . My last one lasted 9 years and we only traded it in because it started nickel and diming me to death and also we needed something easier for my husband to get into With his MS it was hard for him to get into the grand am. The impala is much roomier and easier for him to sit in. He doesn't drive anymore so I get to chauffer him everywhere he goes. Sometimes you have to spend money whether you want to or not to make life a little easier.
