 Posted: 05/25/05 - 11:11 Post subject: What will your next vehicle purchase be?
Just curious.
I hope mine is a Harley 883...
Then a Pickup with a back seat for Ian...
I would also be into a fuel cell powered vehicle...
What's your long/short range plan for a vehicle?

Probably a Land Rover Discovery. I'm already eyeing one and yes, i got my Freelander only 4 months ago.
Edit: I'd like to have a hybrid, but they don't offer any yet that appeal to me.

A truck of some sort. Depends on gas prices and finances 8-10 yrs from now when the wheels have finally fallen off my 1997 Dakota....

Short range - Hopefully replace the Saturn once Dave graduates. It would be another car of that size, but other than that, I couldn't say.
Long range - Another SUV, unless I fell into a load of money, then maybe one of those little BMW two seaters.

Sometime in early 2006, we'll probably look seriously at purchasing something other than a bike and it will have to get excellent gas mileage.

I would like to upgrade from my Toyota Corolla to a bicycle, but that depends on whether or not I find a job closer to home this summer.

Funny you posted this today... I almot did today as well.
Not sure, but I am a couple of months away.
I'm eying the Nissan Murano, Altima, Maxima, Beetle convertible, Cooper Convertible, Ecliplse, Rav 4, CRV, and a few other things.... I'm lost.
When the judge tells meit's time to refi the car I have to be ready, so I'm shopping.
HELP!

The police use those as ghost cars up here. Never speed by an Impala with tinted windows in Ontario. At least they're easy to spot with the round tail lights.
I wouldn't mind driving around in one though - just to stress people out.

Probalby the '05 Xterra with a new/used Pathfinder as an alternate in the very near future. If I'm good, maybe I could use it for my races.
