          99 Saturn SL2 is what I drive. Our "good" car is a 2002 PT Cruiser. I say "good" because I've had some major problems out of it, and have had zero out of the Saturn in the almost-9 years I've owned it. But the Cruiser is our "family" car when we go out together. My wife primarily drives it during the week.

          She wanted a Cruiser, and it appealed to me because it reminded me of this:

            I'm a bit of a Mopar nut!
            Currently, I have a 71 Plymouth, 74 Dodge 1 ton, 92 Dodge Dakota, and an 03 Hemi Ram.

            The 71 is in a constant stage of being redone. The 74 is from my days on the farm, has several hundred thousand miles on it, is built like a tank, and still going strong.
            I just repainted my Dakota last summer, other than the paint peeling (common problem on domestics from the early nineties) she has 307,000 km's on the clock and still running strong.Best vehicle I've ever owned, and I hope to own her for as long as I'm on this side of the dirt!
            I ordered the 03 from the factory, built the way I wanted, and unfortunately, havent had near enough time to really drive it yet! It's only got 23,000 km's so far.....hope to change that this summer!!

            I'm also seriously trying to convince myself NOT to buy one of the new Challengers when they come out....An argument I seem to be losing.

              Here on the crowded, parking-space-free streets of Manhttan, I zip around on a '02 Vespa ET4. It only does about 55mph, but it gets great gas mileage and there's always a place to park.

                98 Nissan Pathfinder & 93 Kawasaki Vulcan.

                The truck has been great to me. I've had it for almost 7 years and never had any serious problem with it. It's tempting to get something new, but I'm enjoying not having a car payment. After paying $400 a month for 5 years, I'm not in a big hurry.

                    Nope, sorry (I'm consoling myself here) no Cuda'. Its a 71 Scamp, same car as the Dodge Swinger, just in Plymouth clothing. Nice enough car, but a bit more than a stones throw short of a Cuda. (and not nearly in as good of shape as your Mustang either!)

                      I have a 1995 Nissan Maxima with 185,000 miles that still gets 27 MPG. It's long paid for and still has a lot of "uummphhh" when needed.

                      Except for being down the last ten days waiting for a part (that evidently was only on the 1995 model) and needing a new alternator (ouch), it has been dependable beyond belief. I'm kind of spoiled by the dependability of this car...it's only been "change the oil and put on new tires", until now. First time it has EVER been in the shop and I can't wait to get it back.

                        We have a greenish 2005 Kia Sedona minivan for trips, and a red 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser for in town driving. I love the PT Cruiser!

                          The Scamp is cool too, I always loved the "boxy" look, that's why I bought a 64 1/2, it's not curvey at all, just like your Scamp:



                          That sucker looks good.
