I also like Hatchbacks a bit more than sedans, for the same reasons. Driving my brother's Civic and my Dad's Buick Century always felt weird to me since I was more used to driving wagons, hatchbacks, and SUVs.IndomitableSam said:
It does, yeah, but my commute is only a half hour or so so it's not that big a deal. I like the morning radio personalities and on the drive home I need traffic reports to decide which route to take. I will look into getting one for road trips though, thanks/an annoyed writer said:
No Problem. And it's funny that you mention radio personalities: one of the few perks of living where I do is that I get clear reception of the radio station where this paragon of awesome works:IndomitableSam said:
I've always wanted a wrangler not as fancy as that Aspen but still one day ^^an annoyed writer said:Da, for some reason I just really like SUVs. Family has had 3 Suburbans, a K5 Blazer, a pair of Jeeps, and a Subaru Forester, so that might have something to do with it. We only have one of the Suburbans and the Forester now, because my parents either don't know how to take care of their shit or sold them off. After that happened we tried the compact city car route since my brother and I were fairly active and needed to get to our jobs. Those things did not last long. Numerous mechanical failures happened that eventually led to some pretty bad accidents. In response to that, as well as the new demands of my life, I got my Blazer. Eventually I want to get one of these:7moreDead said:+1 for TrucksI've owned more 4x4's than normal cars in my life.

Which I haul around in one of these
Kind of a joint purchase between me and my Mum that Discovery.
(The pic isn't of our one but it's more or less the same if you took off the roof rack)
Chrysler Aspen. I'd get the Hybrid version too: 22MPG in a giant-ass behemoth like that, and since I've had experience driving that class of vehicle, I already know how to park it responsibly. Unlike some people I know of in my area.
Not fancy, but very reliable, and very fun. Not to mention it does look rather badass.7moreDead said:
Assuming it goes with this 'winter weather' we're having. I swear to the gods 5 flakes of snow and the NS is having a panic attack.GundamSentinel said:Despite many complaints, it still gets me where I need to go without too many problems.
True that, and snow in the south of the country is usually enough of an excuse for them to mess up the schedule for the entire country. NS logic. I dread tomorrow...Cowabungaa said:Assuming it goes with this 'winter weather' we're having.

Yay! Another Londoner!Talaris said:Heh I rode that Desiro 450 on my way to work, do you live/work in south-west London too?MetalMagpie said:
It's fast, comfortable and I can play tablet games on my way to work.
My current fix is Majesty.
Nice, that's a lovely area. Yeh I work in Richmond, and come in from Streatham Common; I've lived in South West London most of my life, and honestly sometimes feel nervous when venturing into other parts of London like the North East. Anime Con within Arsenal back in February was cool though.MetalMagpie said:Yay!
