Cool 'da list....

i first saw this in an issue of hemmings muscle macheines, and thought it could make a cool off topic discussion. in the article, one of the editors detailed what vehicles he one day hoped to own, deciding them based on practicle usage / purpose.

SO.... with that in mind, i would like to see the MCF'ers list their dream vehicles based on the following catagories:

1) daily drivers ( ex. an '05 monte SS N/A, an '09 cobalt SS, ect...)

2) weekend crusers ( ex. a '71 monte SS, a dodge charger, a '69 camaro ect..)

3) workhorse / winter beaters ( ex. an '08 chevy 2500 duramax P/U, a '58 jeep pickup with a plow, a K-car, ect.)

4) GO FAST vehicles ( example: a '55 chevy gasser, a circle track 4th gen, ect. would typically not be street legal)

5) off road vehicles ( example: a '76 K5 blazer, a jeep, ect. could be street legal, but better for off road fun )

5) Other vehicles ( ex. an '01 yamaha raptor quad, a harly, a kawasaki ninja, a boat, a dirtbike, ect.)

try to keep it around 5 vehicles or less for each catagorie. otherwise you'll be here for a month

based on those catagories, what would you guys & gals choose?

I'll just take my '03 Monte Carlo as the daily driver. If I were going to have a drag strip car, street racer, I'd probably want to start with an '03 Cobra Mustang, for my weekend cruiser and show car, well, I'm working on that now with my '68 Ford Torino GT 390. For offroading, I'd take something like the original Blazer of the '80's with a 350, mild cam, huge tires, maybe a Bronco with a good 351.
