Mine is a 2014 Audi A6 and wife has a 2014 Lexus RX350. The '15 Stingray will be our weekend car.

Currently we own two Volt's. Best car(s) we've ever owned, but with my dealer allowing me to buy a new Stingray at supplier pricing and my current job being extended for 5 years and the Stingray itself being the BEST Vette ever I just had to have ONE last Vette.

So we're trading the 2012 Volt in on the Stingray. We will miss it. And I'll be getting friendly with my local OPEC dealer again.

I've had two Cruze's in the past, but stepped up my ride to the new 2014 Chevy SS. Best damn rear wheel drive Chevy in years even if it is built in Australia. It has the LS3 Corvette/Camaro engine to boot. Great power with a sports car ride, and if I ever need to supplement my retirement income, I can use it as a limo for rides to the airport.

Daily driver is a 2006 ML 350, my wife's old car. I bought her a new SRX last fall, now it's my turn with a Z51 2LT. Should be at the dealer in a couple of weeks. I'll keep the Mercedes for bad weather days.

I'm guessing you're referring to a French built Falcon 900


I fly a Bombardier Challenger 300

No worries, they're both bizjets

Falcons are in the large cabin category
Some referred to our category as super midsize
