91 celica GT por moi (for me), wife's got the kid hauler - 2001 honda odyssey.

The celica's been great - no troubles and still looks decent. But I'm looking for the day when I can rumble around in the cobra...

Ron,

I saw your comet at Bill Emerson's shop. It's a real beauty. My daily driver is my spf. When it rains, I step up to my fully trashed '85 tercel. Has a radio an' dat.

Company car.....2001 Jeep Cherokee. With logos all over it! Ever seen one of those Progressive Insurance trucks? Ours look very similar... but hey, I've never made a single payment on it. Not for gas, insurance, maintainance. So it's hard to complain.

Joe,

Thanks for the compliment. I have a couple of pictures somewhere of your Cobra with the broken fender if you would like them. I think I made the local painter mad when I stopped by and told him Bill needed that car back so you could go to Ohio. Fortunately we have argued for years so he did get it in and start on it after it set there for several days. Actually I was wrong. I just have the picture left of when it was at the paint shop and after it was finished and back over at Bill's but if you want them you are welcome to them. I thought I gave the one that showed the broken fender to Bill but he said no, so I must have sent it to someone. Take care and watch out for those other drivers.

Ron :) ;) :)

02 Chevy Venture company van, to carry my Lap Top around, ha ha. I keep telling them a Mustang would be the perfect car for that.

I drive the Cobra several times a week, I HATE the "Chubby" (but I love that company gas card)!

Best gas milage!
 
I save gas during my daily commute so that my husband and I can burn lots of premium on the weekends.

My daily driver is a Honda Insight gas/electric hybrid. I am currently getting 63 miles/gallon! Can anyone beat that?

My FFR Cobra has been my daily driver with a few days in my '98 Ford Ranger when rain was forcasted. As of today we have had only 1.78 inches of rain this year in Tucson. The Cobra is now being driven as a daily driver by my son who commutes from Toledo to Detroit, 86 miles a day. Of course he will have a lot more rain days than I did. I'll get the Cobra back in Sept. and plan to continue driving it daily. That's why I built it ! John

Robert T. Day 07-01-2003 01:45 AM

'98 Ford Explorer mostly for work, and a '79 Suzuki GS850G for fun
BUT-- still no Cobra--my raffle ticket for DVSFIII didn't pan out ( but still proud to have contributed to a good cause!! )

2000 Mercury Mountaineer
 
My former Company lease car at Ford. When Ford spun-off Visteon, they said I had to buy it or turn it in. Now that it is mine, and not a lease, I have painted the grille and wheels body color, replaced the running boards with rocker moldings, and upgraded to a three inch exhaust system. Class III trailer hitches front and rear make manuvering a trailer into a tight spot relatively easy. Tires are 295/50X17 Goodyears, and wheels are late model Mustang "Cobra R's".

Not as much fun to drive as the Cobra, but still gets lots of looks with the giant tires & wheels. With AWD and two hitches, it does double duty launching/retrieving boats or Cobras with ease.

regards,

Jeff
