s/o: what kind of car do you drive

[AnnieW625]

It's been a while since we have had one of these:)

I drive a 2013 VW Passat TDI (w/manual transmission), and DH drives a 2006 Honda Pilot. DH can't wait to sell our Pilot and get a mid size 4 dr. truck.

[hillview]

well ... we now have 3 cars for 4 drivers (my parents live with us in the apartment downstairs).
Toyota Sienna minivan 2012 w heated seats, gps and DVD -- primary kid mobile. the nanny is using it for the summer with the kids
Subaru Outback 2009 w heated leather seats but not other bells and whistles. now the main car I use when I need to go places and my parents use
Honda Accord 2013 DH's car (is it a bottom of the line <20k entry level awesome automatic)

I drive a Mazda5 (manual)

DBF drives a Mazda3 (manual)


We just don't like automatic cars and were so glad the Mazda5 came in a manual. We tried the automatic version of it and just didn't like it so we drove 2 hours away to get the manual version.

I don't think I'll ever be mature enough not to answer this question with "I drive a Dodge Stratus!"

I can't drive right now and won't be able to for the foreseeable future but technically my car is the van: Chrysler Town and Country. I hate it. Our other car is a Honda Pilot.

2009 Toyota Sienna for me. Love the convenience. Hate parking it.

DH's 1997 Toyota 4 Runner finally bit the dust this winter so he now has the Subaru Impreza WRX--total sports car but with 4 wheel drive. He has taken it out on the track twice and loves it.

Dh has his 1990 mazda miata fun car. We don't even have collision on the thing--he just loves his convertible.

mazda 3 manual hatchback for me.

mazda cx-9 loaded for DH

i love them.

[1mom2dylan]

I drive a Mazda 5, DH drives Subaru Forester

[trales]

Me - 2012 Subaru Impreza
DH - 2007 Subaru Outback

[TxCat]

Me - 2008 Audi A4 - black exterior, black leather interior, sunroof, great sound system with built-in satellite radio. I love, love, love it.
DH - 2007 Volvo S40 - red exterior, gray cloth interior. He loves his car, feels like it's totally "him".

Only thing I don't love about the A4 is the small backseat (although at least it has a giant trunk). After my last car (1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee that I drove for 10 years), I said no more SUVs, but now with soon-to-be 2 DC, I'm starting to rethink that stance...

[roobee]

We have a 2005 Chrysler Town & Country and we just got a 2013 Nissan Leaf, which is 100% electric. We still have my husband's 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee, but need to sell that.

I think I talked my husband into buying me the Leaf and he's going to drive our minivan, which is totally not what I meant to do. I think the person who will be driving the most (not to exceed the 80 mile range) that day should drive the Leaf. I'm feeling a little bad that I was so demanding about getting this electric car... but it is soooo much fun (and honestly, the Leaf monthly payment is about what we were spending in gas for the Jeep that gets 16.5 miles per gallon)

[sunshine873]

We have a 2005 GMC Crew Cab Truck. Just sold my 2003 Nissan Maxima and are waiting until after our move to replace it. The truck is huge and gets horrible gas mileage. But, it is paid for and is towing, me, DH, DD, our 2 dogs and our new 30 ft camping trailer, loaded down with 2 motorcycles and everything we "need" for the next 6 weeks as we make our way across the country to our new home in the desert. :)

[georgiegirl]

2009 Honda Odyssey. We bought it when I was pregnant with DS. Good thing since we are having a third DC.

DH drives a 2007 Subaru Tribeca. If we didn't live off a dirt road, he'd buy a BMW.

[ilfaith]

Mostly I drive our 2009 Honda Odyssey. We also have a 2007 Toyota Avalon and a 2008 Corvette.

[DualvansMommy]

Mostly I drive the 2012 Subaru Outback with the bells & whistles. It's the vehicle used mostly to transport DS.

DH drives 2009 Toyota Camry XLE.

I drive a 2008 Toyota Sienna. DH drives a 2008 Toyota Corolla.

[azzeps]

I drive a 2006 VW Jetta. We have been a one car family for about ten years and just last month DH got a used 2012 Audi A4. Decidedly not the kid mobile, although I did convince him to get car seats for it because the kiddos beg to ride in daddy's "really fast car."

[zukeypur]

I drive a 2012 Honda Oddyssey EXL. It's my dream mom-mobile. DH drives a 2012 Honda Crosstour.

[lcarlson90]

Me: 2013 Subaru Outback
DH: 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan - Company car

[carolinacool]

I have a 2007 Nissan Murano. DH has a 2008 Nissan Altima. We're a Nissan family. My last car was a 2000 Altima. His was a 2001 Maxima and before that a 1998 Maxima.

[Nooknookmom]

2012 Ford edge-wasn't my first choice as I wanted an older model escape but I like it!

DH has a '04(?) silverback truck for work. Knock wood she's still going strong :)

[codex57]

See signature.

Don't have a car that's "mine". We rotate as needed

[basil]

Me: 2011 Subaru Outback w leather, heated seats
Him: 2008 Honda Civic

We are not car people and intend to drive our cars 10 years at least since we buy outright and pay in cash, but I won't pretend I don't have a soft spot for a big black Infiniti SUV...

[smilequeen]

2012 Infiniti QX56 for me

2009 Acura MDX for DH but he's car shopping. Midlife crisis. We shall see.

[Kindra178]

08 Sienna
13 Legacy

We drive our cars for a long time because we don't drive much. Our Sienna (bought new in August 2008) has 17,500 miles on it. DH remarked last week that he couldn't believe it has so many miles on it. We drive a lot more with three kids than we ever did before.

[crl]

I drive a red 2005 Subaru Forester with about 40,000 miles on it. We bought it new. Dh drives a grey 2009 Ford Flex that we bought used in 2010.

We have considered buying an electric vehicle for commute purposes, but haven't yet. Otherwise we plan to drive these until they are too expensive to fix.

I have a 2011 Corolla, DH has a Chevy Cruze. I'm a keep it for 10 years kind of person, he's a lease it and get a new one frequently kind of person. I try not to let it drive me too crazy :)

[emily_gracesmama]

2005 Honda odyssey I think it's exl the one with leather heated seats sunroof but no DVD. Hubby has an 2006 Toyota 4runner limited which we are gonna have to trade in when the baby is out of his infant seat. I still have the 8 year old harnessed in a radian in the middle and I don't think that's lasting much longer she's got some seriously long legs. Having the 3 across in radians is an option but they are on top if one another and the car has 130k on it so its not like we haven't gotten good use out of it. We need something with a 3rd row this time. I'm driving the minivan til it dies its got about 130k on it too.

[gatorsmom]

I drive 2011 Toyota Sienna minivan. Dh drives a 2003 GMC Denali. We also own a 2007 Bmw M6 convertibleand a 1971 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. The last 2 are our fun cars. :)

[almostamom]

11 Tahoe. We are a one car car family and have been for about a year. We sold DH's vehicle last September and haven't had a need to replace it yet.

[KLD313]

I drive a 2012 GMC Acadia Denali. I love, love, love it. I've had a lot of cars and I've driven a lot from working in a car dealership and this car is in my top 3. I'm partial to the cushy ride you get from GM cars.

[hellokitty]

Me: 2009 Honda Odyssey
DH: 2001 Subaru WRX sedan

I'm partial to the cushy ride you get from GM cars.

My dh feels the same way. :)

[lhafer]

Me: 2012 Nissan Quest
DH: 2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe

I can't wait to trade in my Quest for a 2014 or 2015 Acura MDX!! My lease is up in March 2015 - we'll see if I can hold out that long!
