Best Car for a MILF?

This thread reminds me........

My wife's co-worker & good friend, RIP, was about 57 YO when she inherited her father's late model Mustang convertible. I'm not sure what level/package it was, but it was very nice. I'm now wondering, she was 57, so how old was her father was when he was driving it?

 

Something tells me that your friend had motor oil in his veins long before you met him . Hey, as long as a person has the reflexes to enjoy a performance car, and the money to pay the tickets and the higher insurance premiums, why not?



With modern engine & transmission technology, the highway MPG for some V8 engines with automatic transmissions comes very close to matching that of our four cylinder Rav4. That includes Corvettes and full size pick-ups with quad cabs.

 

The ship may have sailed but we love our Elantra GT. Gets solid mileage, has just enough power that I can easily average 80 on the interstate and still have the headroom to pass people if necessary, handles great in tight quarters, and the hatchback makes working out of the "trunk" surprisingly comfortable. Fold the rear seats flat and it's even got enough cargo space for me to fit my mountain bike (with the front wheel popped off).

And if it's anything like our previous non-hatchback Elantra it's tougher than a brick shithouse. That thing ate a pickup going 50mph slamming into me while I was stopped at a redlight and I walked away with nothing but aches and pains.

 

what did we decide on?

 

Zombiesquirrel and Borla decided that ZS is indeed a MILF, they just don't agree on what the acronym means.

There is no accounting for taste in cars, we're all over the place.

ZS is keeping the vehicle that she has, for now.

 

gotcha

 

Yeah. The repair I needed didn't end up being as devastating as we were told it could be. I'm sticking with the my somewhat unfriendly for child car. It's a two door, but it's cute and sporty. DaddySquirrel can't drive shift and I don't have the patience to teach him.... We haven't switched cars like we were intending to do.

 

too many people cant drive a stick now a days. its a shame

 

Both of my daughters were pissed that I made them learn stick (and parallel parking) before I signed off on their driver's license. Both drive stick by choice, now.

Don't even consider that, the closest that I ever got to divorce was teaching my wife to drive stick. Pay someone else to do it.

 

its an art. doing what I do its a must. but its a dying art. my ranger is a stick and I prefer it over my explorer that is an auto

 

I intend to teach my daughter how to drive stick. I appreciate and know my car better because of the experience.

HAHAHAHA. Yeah, I can't do it. I tried once and we stalled 4 times just trying to get out of the driveway.

 

i tried to teach my wife a few times, after the first time I had to put a clutch in it. it wasn't pretty. she could care less
