From the Big 3?
« on: June 12, 2010, 03:48:48 PM »
If you could have one vehicle from each of the "Big 3" ... GM, Ford, Chrysler ... what would it be?


Me:

1975 Caprice Classic convertible (spring/summer/fall "fun" car)
1996 Thunderbird (summer daily driver)
2010 Ram regular cab (winter daily driver)

Oh, my. I already want everything else everyone else has said.

But......

GM.  A 1961  Corvette like that featured on the TV show Route 66.  Yeah, I know it doesn't have IRS. And I don't care!   ;D



Ford: A 1966 Mustang 350 GT



Chryco:  I dunno. Chrysler made very few cars I ever really coveted. But I guess it would have to be one of the original 300 series. Either a coupe or a 'vert would do!  Here's a 1957 300 C

*chuckles*

No worries ... I suppose I should've, though.  I did, actually, consider throwing in one foreign car as an option, but I figured that'd be an entirely different degree of difficulty in deciding on just one...lol.

Speaking of deciding on just one .. I'm changing my 3rd choice from the 2010 Ram to a Grand Cherokee.


For the record ... my 3 choices [all of which have NO connection to FWD] ... are assuming I have NO other cars.  That's right ... *gasp* ... I would not have a Monte Carlo.

But I'm not sure I could limit myself to just 3 cars........ ;)
