Cars, trucks - Favorites past or present

My favorite car…. This thing since new has not cost me a dime…rotors and pads and tires being the exception. It is a 2013 and has 206k miles on it and not a single thing has needed repair or replacement…not even the battery… I put 500 miles a week on it either going to work or the boat…. My wife said I should get a new car just to be safe in case it broke down unexpectedly ..so I ordered the same thing … I waited weeks…the whole time saying why to myself because I will just mileage the new one…so when the new car was delivered to the dealer and he raised his price $500 that was enough to kill the deal… I put another set of new tires on mine ….couldn’t be happier :)
I just noticed the mud on the bumper that’s from following to close to a landscaping truck :(

Sharp shovel head! Have any kidneys left?

It’s not bad riding on smooth pavement in Florida. When in Chicago dodging the potholes was a life and death experience.

It is a kick only, jockey shift shovel. A real shot of caffeine to ride. Note left handlebar grip. No clutch lever. Lol.

Have had many over the years, started off in the 70's with a 67' GTO BB, didn't know what I had then. Use to race SCCA and loved my TR6's and Porche's. I still have a 75' TR6 and and old 80' C3. My DD's are BMW's (440i Conv. and 535i) now, although I love my truck (KR F-150) the most.

Man I love those TR6's; bucket list car....

I use to do frame off restorations. Amazingly fast car when set up correctly. Of course not straight line, only through curves. They hold the road like a roller skate.
 
Here was my sons kart. He had several but raced from about 7 or 8 until about 16 (2004 until about 2013).


And right after he turned 15 he got the chance to turn laps in a Star Mazda Pro Formula car. He first ran a brand new Mazda 3 on the track then a Spec Miata then the Star Mazda car. That was his first time ever driving a full sized car and first time driving a stick. This was at Beaverun (now called Pitt Race or something) in Wampum, PA.


Star Mazda car (he drove a different one but same type of car)


Video (he had the fastest lap of the day)
