Unfortunately my max is a lone ranger I wish I had something for the winters here, like a beater truck, but alas, I'm 21 & a full-time student, so paying off the max + renting a house + other bills is bad enough.

Hehe, it is worth noting that my garage mate is a black 97 240SX. Got the nissan garage goin

Next car to join the family soon: 87 Buick Grand National

I will be getting one also but it has to be at a really good price. Some guys are trying to sell them at $17000.


Deezo-
When I told my wife I was bringing a Subaru station wagon home, she was like "I don't see myself EVER driving a family car, wagon or minivan!!!" When I pulled up in it, her attitude changed completely. She loves the silver, loweredGT suspension, 16" sport wheels, rear spoiler, and most importantly, the moon roof. She also feels much more safe in the GT than she ever did in 97 Altima. I love taking the GT on snow covered roads and drifting that badboy everywhere. It drifts like a RWD yet you've got complete control.

There are a lot of GNs going for 15-20K, but those are usually the "creampuffs" that have been hidden in Grandpa's barn for 10 years. I've found about 15 GNs within 300 miles of KC that are selling for ~9-12K with 70K miles or less and are in very good condition. I may also consider a Regal T-Type which is a bit cheaper yet offers the same performance. I'd have to get the smoke gray if I go with a T-Type.

One quick question for everyone. Are you guys listing the cars and "toys" in your household or do you personally OWN all those cars and toys? Some of you would need a massive garage or storage area for all the stuff you've listed. I want your job if you can have 4 cars, 3 ATVs, 3 motorcycles, etc all under one roof. Sounds like a good time.

You know, I was just thinking that the other day!!

I moved to Idaho and it just sorta happened! But with the Teton mountains and the sawtooth mountains SOOOO close, a guy has to have the toys to play there!

Oh, I also have the K2 205's, and I know for a FACT that rednecks can't ski the long ski, so I can't have made the morph yet!......

Funny thing though, lately I have had the urge to get a gunrack in my expy window.....

I can relate we had quadrunners growing up and snowcrafts as well. But knowing that if you have a snowboard on your wall, you'll never be R-neck.. Makes ya feel frisky

I know what you are talking about, especially when you look at their profile and they are only 20 y.o. I think some younger adults like to claim mom and dads rides as well. I remember seeing some guys pic showing a Jag S type, a CLK, some other luxury car and his maxima, parked infront of a 4 car garage...saying that they are his, but he's like 19 y.o.

Besides the Max, I have a '98 Eddie Bauer Expedition (beast). My wife drives that (unless I'm going hunting or towing something).

A lot more power (and a lot more gas) than the Pathfinder I had for 7 yrs.

I'll be going to the midwest to buy one when I'm ready. I've seen a few around here in MA but we have snow and salt to deal with. I will fly out and drive a GN back to MA.

My other car is a 92 honda civic hatch with a gsr motor swap. It navy blue with a carbon fiber hood and flat black rota 15" rims. The motor was dynoed at 180hp and 132tq to the wheels and runs very strong. But I'm getting rid of it because you can drive down the road without some person reving their motor at you. I swear if I had a gun the next person trying to race me I would shoot them! But the car handles like its on rails and gets 30 mpg too. When sold the Max is going either turbo or supercharged!!

peace

Rich
