2001 Ford Lightning

Absolutely loved my truck, but wanted something a little more luxurious, little more room (that's relative), and better gas milage. Getting 11mpg and filling up every 3 days gets old.

2006 Subaru B9 Tribeca -- mom's taxi. Kids are off to college. Since I gotta pay that tuition, I might as well make the best of the commute!

Damn i feel like 25% of the people came from s2ks and evos and civics.
now i understand why people with civics would trade up, but im guessing the people with s2ks and evos prob wanted something luxurious and something still quick. and to you guys that sold your nsx to get is's. y'all are straight up tripping. Its not my dream to own one, but i think its one of the better cars ever produced. Do a full type R conversion. Bride seats, coilvoers and some Volks. Intake and exhaust the car is gonna scream!!
By far the best japanese car ever built. It used to compete with ferraris back in the days.

Volvo S60R--nothing like that power, but also alot more reliable! And besides in the US who needs that sort of power with our pesky speed limits!
