Not a Lambo. It's a Panamera, the four-door Porsche. Not a car I can find it in myself to like.

Now I dig my wife's 1982 911SC...

We traded my blue Suzuki V-Strom for Hobbes. Sad not to have 2 wheels, but Hobbes more than makes up for it.

There is a lambo- it's the one he says is on order. It's in his signature.

Have you ever seen the panamera in person? It's beautiful in person, horrible in pictures...

Oops, didn't notice the sig.

I've seen the Panamera in person quite a few times, there are a bunch of them around here. I still don't dig it.

Actually, a lot of Porsche's current line-up doesn't do anything for me.

I agree, older porsches are where it's at. But, I still love the current Porsche line-up!

'06 Dodge Cummins Megacab 4x4 is my daily driver. The '03 Expedition was my wife's daily driver. Now she'll drive the Mini and my son will drive the Expedition. I also have an '07 Suzuki DRZ250 that is dual sport, so I ride that on the nice days. With the new car payment, I might have to reassess what "nice" is.

my other ride is a Catapillar P5000 forklift. I wish I could log as many hours on the Cooper as I do on it!

That's about $250,000 worth of hardware no? Not judging, mind you, but that's one busy garage (and boat yard).
