Summer: 2003 Boxster S, 1999 Ford F-250 diesel or 2007 Honda CBR1000RR. Winter, the truck, unless the roads are dry, in which case I often exercise the Boxster.
I know, too many pictures  !

It's mostly the Box to work and home. 55 mile round trip. If the roads are muddy it's the Honda Civic. I'm an Engineer. I have this constant struggle between driving the sexy Porsche and the practical, efficient, cost effective, reliable Honda Civic. It only needs gas/oil/tires. However, My Porsche has not required a lot of maintenance in 1.5 years and nearly 30,000 miles of driving.Just front tires when I bought it and brakes.

Clearly, I'm not a "sensible vehicle" person. Life's too short for that.

Right now my Box is my DD. I had a ZR2 S-10 that the motor locked up in. Need to toss it on Craigslist and get it out of the driveway.
I'm actually wary of not driving my Box regularly. Isn't it when the car sets for a while that the oil creeps into the IMSB and eats up the grease in the bearing?
The car gets decent gas mileage and always fun to drive. Just need some winter tires.

y u do this to me?! Here's what I'll do... give you a rendering of it lol
Meet the Changhe Fun-Yun (Fuyun) microvan. Has a Turbo... and when that turbo kicks-in the motor swings the wipers so fast two flew off the car on different days. I wish I'd be joking. Also, I can fit 3 adults comfortably - one in the front - one in the middle - and one in the back
Second hand: 12,500km, 3months warranty, $600. Beat that brotha

Narrow track with a high CG..........seems like a recipe for disaster. I'd pedal that ride very gingerly indeed!
Just sayin'...........
