I drive my dads old ML55 AMG with its gas guzzling 5.5 liter 347 HP V8, I have a peekture from when I went surfing a few weeks ago and I did some mean AWD doughnuts in the sand and some off roading it was a pain cleaning it though, so now this is my primary car becuase I got into an accident today. but it shouldn't be tough.

1998 BMW 740iL and a 98 Expedition...hence the small car 
Used to drive the Expedition daily and spent over $600/month in gas. My MINI I drive just as much and am spending only 200/month for gas- it's amazing!! But we kept the other cars for convenience.

It's what made me really hate driving a 3/4 ton truck for a daily driver. Since it was such a good car, the GTI really kinda paled when comparing their interiors. So, we test drove a mini...
I am sure you already know the rest.
