? I use it for my business. Personally, it's my favorite vehicle I've ever owned, because it makes me money instead of costing me money lol.

Had a '71 Corvette with T-tops, liked it. Too bad that truck in Houston came over the centerline. :thud:

I have owned several Corvettes, AMX's , Cudas, Camaros, a 911, a Shelby GLHS, an RX7, a GTI, a Miata, 280Z and ZX, and I drove a Scion Xb for several years, and liked it a lot, too. They are great cars, plenty of room, fun to drive, and easy to get in and out of( which I appreciate more and more).

Yea I think it's actually my favorite car I've ever owned. I had the old box body style before it but it had trouble getting over the mountain from SC to Knoxville, so I upgraded. The newer one is much faster. But yea, I've owned a lot of different kinds of cars and driven even more, and this is my favorite multipurpose vehicle.

Mine wasn't the new one. It was a 2005 with a 5 speed. I bought it with 45,000 miles, and put 60,000 more on it in 5 years, with no problems. I traded it for a cargo van for business. Still had original clutch, and used no oil between 5,000 mile changes.

5 speed would have been better for that model. Mine was an automatic and the way it was geared, I really didn't think it was going to make it over the NC mountain on my way to a couple of games. I traded it the Monday I got home from a game towards a new body. It's got a 2.4 instead of the 1.5 and is much more powerful.

Yea his dad owns a patent in a golf course irrigation system or something like that, and Alex is an engineer. If anyone wants a success story, his dad was living in a trailer at 35, and by 45 he had a mansion with a 13 car garage and cars to fill it haha.
