2006 Ford F-150 FX4 Extended Cab in Tru Blue Metallic sitting on 20" rims with Pirelli Scorpion tires. For sale soon though. Wife wants an '08' CTS and I get to take over her '03' Explorer (since I bought the Z). It only has 9500 miles on it and I bought it new in December 2005.

This is a picture of my '04 Infiniti FX35 AWD when purchased new, before the mods began. It is currently lowered with Eibach Springs, H&R 15mm Spacers, Stillen Strut brace, De-railed, '05 Tail-lights, etc. And thanks to Zaino, the paint still looks this good.

It was a 94 Ford Bronco. Now I only use it for towing and I'll use it a lot in the winter. The corvette is my DD... why wouldn't it be?

My Z06 is my daily driver except I switch with my '99 R1 depending on weekday or weekend(my work days rotate). I ride the bike during the week and drive the car on weekends or in bad weather. The bike is way better in commute traffic, it gets better mileage, and it's faster too. It is easier to carry a bunch of stuff with the car.

That definitely tops my Ford but you also have some nice alternatives!
