(14,912 posts)Two other favorites were my '73 Camaro SS and my current 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited with the 5.2 Litre (318 Magnum) V-8, fulltime 4 wheel drive & heavy duty tow package. I bought it used in 2006, with only 120,000 miles on it. I've put another 120,000 on it, and it still runs like a champ! I was really surprised at the gas milege, too. At 75mph on the interstate with the cruise control set, I average 24mpg.... I've gotten up to 30mpg while "drafting" an 18 wheeler.
I've always had an eye for the Dodge Challenger, too. I love the old ones, and the new models are really sharp too!
I'm almost 51 years old and have owned close to, if not over, 100 cars since I was 16. One time I traded cars 3 times in one week! Out of all of them, only 4 were foreign vehicles: A Mazda B-2000 truck (everything interchangeable with a Ford Ranger) and 3 Honda Accords. I loved the Hondas and would have no qualms about owning another one.
Peace,
Ghost
