I have a 2004 Malibu. It was my wife's until she bought a new Equinox early this month. Before that I was driving a 1999 Neon.

Here's my DD 2015 Shark Grey A8 and the netting is to keep the groceries from rolling around.

I drive them all. The Duc & 'Vette get the most use until the weather turns foul. Then the Buell and the Element get their turn.

That grey is one of the few colors the C7 looks good in the fact you didnt get black wheels makes it look even better
Nice choice.

2000 Ford Ranger XLT Supercab 4x2. 180K and still rolling strong.

Later,

Lee




Got the bed cover for $20 and four old XBox games. Stock otherwise. Odd rig as it's an XLT but has base gauge/instrumentation and no PW or PDL. Has the nicer stereo and CC though. Not a Ford guy but its has been a reliable truck.

I wish I had a car that would get the groceries. I hate going to the grocery store, and my C6 insists that I tag along with it.

Usually the daily driver is my 14 Audi S6 or if I need to carry more stuff or tow it's my wife's Escalade ESV.

2006 Saturn Vue. It is to bad GM ruined Saturn. This car has 127,000 miles and still looks new because of the Ploymer panels the old Saturns were built with . I carry a rubber mallet in the car and challenge anyone to hit their car as hard as I hit the doors on my Saturn with the mallet. No they dont dent or ding.That was a Saturn trade mark.

1992 F-150. It's 4 sale so I wouldnt expect it to be the grocery getter for much longer. I'm not trying 2 sell it on here just making a comment.

Wish my cars had em!
Nothing bugs me more than dings....or hammer marks.
Guessing insurance companies may not have been fond of them
