'04 F150 FX4 SuperCrew

When I first typed in FX4 I left the shift key down and got FX$ which sums up this gas hog.

Subaru Outback H6. It doesn't give me any trouble, but it doesn't give me "wood" like the MCS does.

MCS05 is my daily driver. My other car is a new Corvette with Z51 performance package. Two very fun cars to own, drive, and enjoy! And, both are completely stock, no modifications!

We have a Honda Civic (soon to be sold for an inherited Ford Freestyle) and a new Porsche Cayman S! It is truly excellent... but I love my MINI too.

Wish the second car was a Mini but I can't complain. We have a 2003 Mustang Cobra with lots of mods. Also, there is the 1993 Toyota Camry (always dirty so no pic) for when the four door occasion arises.

At least I'm not the only crazy fool looking to off load his 500 RWHP Cobra for a Mini. Guess you have to drive one to know why.
