AmericanRam Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Just curious what everyone drives, when they do drive. I have a black 2003 Dodge Ram that I drive mostly, and I also have a 1994 Toyota Corolla that I use for simple errands and my girlfriend drives it also. I know for one I try not to drive too far as gas prices are pretty bad here in the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You live in one of the cheapest countries in the developed world for everything including gas. Gas prices in the UK are $1.30 a litre compared to $0.76 in the US. Nearly half the price! In my country Japan, we pay 160yen a litre (about $1.46) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hit $1.00 per litre in Australia a decade ago, and it's floating around the $1.50 mark at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for one I try not to drive too far as gas prices are pretty bad here in the States. Apart from the US being relatively cheap for gas, you also drive a gas guzzler (I'm presuming, it certainly looks like one). No right to complain. I don't drive but when I buy a car, it'll be a classic Porsche 911. Probably in dark green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyram Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm not sure AR is complaining, he has said that he tries not to drive too far. Petrol prices are stupid here though AR it costs a fortune. Parents who do the school run every morning then immediately drive the 50 yard home again must pay a fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Banged up 2005 Astra 1.7cdti 'elite' First and only car so far, had it since 2008 I think. Want rid but it wouldn't fetch much, and can't really afford anything better anyway. Wing mirror casings fallen apart, loose bearing in the turbo making noise for 3 years, quite a lot of little scratches (only some of which can be explained), a cracked rear license plate... all things I just can't be arsed to get fixed.

Pearl Ram Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 E32 BMW 735i, Does 12mpg around town, & Vauxhall Senator 3.0i, manual.. Had both of these although the Senator was auto, comfiest seats I've ever had in a motor. Does your Senator have the digital dashboard ? Enjoyed swanning about in the 735 an' all, classic motor. Due to financial turbulence I now swan about (with a paper bag over my head) in a very reliable Ford Focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
