I bought a ford turus when I retired in 2003.  It was 4 years old when I bought it.  It served me good till last year and things started happening to it and this year too.  I traded it in for a 2012 Nissan Altima.  It drives so good and I feel like a queen driving it down the road.  I am going to Charlotte, NC next week and going to drive.  I can hardly wait to see how it does on the open road.  Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe.

I have a 2010 BMW. However I don't drive it very much at all. On a vacation trip some friends and I rented some motor scooters to tool around the island to sight see and all that kind of thing. Well, we all feel in love with these little toys, and though not exactly a toy they were tiny little bikes with really small engines, maybe get to 30mph on level ground. Upon returning home two of us started looking into motor scooters and we both bought much larger 'maxi-scooters' (these will go over 70mph), and basically that is what I drive 99% of the time! I only use my car in very extreme weather conditions like snow or ice. 70+ miles to a gallon is neat, but the biggest reason is this thing is just a ton of fun to ride!! ;D

Well I drive 1995 Oldsmobile. Just under 110.000 miles. I'm grateful for my car given to me when my dad passed. Most on here are grateful for their car or things they may have, also for what they make on FC and be able to pay bills and extra little things for their children.  :thumbsup:

Our household has one car, a 2010 Ford Focus SES.  It's about to hit 50,000 miles soon and has been a great car.  It just went in for scheduled maintenance and was averaging 32.6mpg since the last maintenance.  We'll be getting it back today, as it needed brakes, new tires, and an alignment.  I'm not looking forward to the bill. :-\

I drive a Ford Focus.   I hope to get another vehicle soon.  I want a Ford Escape.  My daughter also had a Ford Focus, but she just recently traded it in on a Chev. Traverse.

I have a 2010 Chevy Silverado and a 2006 Chevy Malibu, love them both. Planning to check out the ford trucks next time, I like the looks of them and our next truck will need to pull the travel trailer I plan to use in retirement!!

I have a 2004 BMW Convertible that I leased new and bought it when my lease was up  -- I still love it, even as it approaches 10 years and has over 100,000 miles.  It is a very low maintenance car and I don't spend much on maintenance.  Drives like a dream!

I drive a 2007 Chevy Impala. It has been a nice car but has over 150,000 miles on it so hoping it holds up for a couple more years. I previously had a Toyota Tundra and I loved that truck...but had to get rid of it as I was paying about $85.00 for a tank of gas. Hope I can afford another truck like that again one day.

i drive a Toyota Prius. They are great cars. The gas mileage is fantastic. They're small and easy to park. I think they're comfortable but my husband doesn't agree.

We have a 2007 Acura TSX that my husband mainly drives.  I drive my 2001 Acura CL with 80,000 miles on it and it's my favorite car ever to drive.
Recently I had occasion to drive a Chevy Malibu and was impressed with it.  I also enjoyed driving a Hyundai Sonata a few months ago.  So more options to look at the next time.

That is the best part!  We have about two years remaining on our loan (if we aren't able to pay it off sooner), and I can't wait for that day to arrive.  My hope is to then get (based on our average yearly driving) another 5 years or so out of the car, as long as it doesn't start nickel and diming us to death with repairs.  Afterall, cars truly are money pits.

My husband and I drive old Volvo's of the 240 series, station wagons and sedans. We have several of them. I can't believe they are still running! What a great car those old 240 Volvos are! They are from the late 80's and early 90's and we don't plan to buy a new car for another couple years or so. :wave:

I bought my Ram 1500 pickup, new in 2001.  Its a gas hog and goes through tires like nobody's business.  But I like it and it hauls the boat.  It has 90,000 miles on it.
