This is just for fun and just get to knwo everybody a little bit better. Plus I am little proud of what I drove. I am a horrible driver but I do drive a little 49cc Tao Tao scooter. I mostly drive it to work which is about 10 to 15 miles away form my house. My question is what do you guys drive and if you love it or not.

McLaren 3 Posting Whiz in Training
I drive the opel vectra 1998, 2 litter diesel, 74 kW.
Kind of ok car, good thing that the parts are not expensive, because there are lot of such cars.
And does not look very terrible, but also its not looking like something making you stand out of the crowd which I miss little bit.
The rear windows are tinted so it is at least little bit standing out of the mass.

A 15 year old Mazda Bongo Japanese import van. They started life as a MPV with 8 seats, but as the seats all fold flat to form a bed and there's an option for an automatic rising roof with room to sleep 2 more they became a popular camper van project. Mines currently a dayvan as it's a tintop (no raising roof) but will be getting a rear kitchen fitted over the winter, unless I convert it to LPG instead which will eat all my budget for the moment.

Ford Focus Zetec 1.6 for the last 4 years which I'm selling because I don't use it much anymore :(
I now ride a Suzuki SV650 SK8 in blue which is why I don't use my car anymore. Always wanted a bike, even over a car, I can't get enough of it.
GSZR700 or BMW HP4 RR next! or a van to convert like @HappyGeek is doing.

I don't know... there just isn't anything like riding on a bright sunny spring day or even a crisp cool autumn day. Hitting those country roads and just giving all she's got.

Snow, deer and mountains make a Jeep 4x4 about the best thing to drive.

My 1997 Dodge Ram pickup truck still runs pretty well, but the rust is getting to it.

2003 Renault Scenic. God awful car. Was the wife's. I'd trade it in for a unicycle if I didn't have kids. :(

hmm, my dad had one. Traded it in for a Range Rover to save on fuel and maintenance bills.
Thing uses about a quarter the fuel that Jeep did, and cheaper spares as well (in part because they don't have to be shipped from across the Atlantic I know).
I'll drive anything that agrees with my back and is affordable :)

3 Toyota Camrys: 2000, 2006 (Solara 2 door) and 2010 Hybrid.
All very reliable. Hybrid gets pretty good gas mileage for a fairly large car (35+ mpg in the summer). It has a lot of technology in it but Toyota engineers did a really good job so it doesn't break easily.

@gribouillis... although I'm not a big fan of priuses they are good little cars.. no hard feelings I hope

Toyota had an awful lot of recalls lately. I almost got a used Prius until I read what a battery replacement would cost.
Gribouillis 1,391 Programming Explorer Team Colleague
In a Prius, there is a small battery which is the same as in other cars and cost the same price. I changed it only once. There is also a huge battery for the hybrid system, but you never change it.

Toyota gives a factory warranty of 8 years for the Prius nickel hydride battery pack. The replacement past this period will cost you about $3,000. So, watch out when you buy an old used Prius.

mercedes 2926 heavy Tow truck <- used it to collect only prius Ive ever seen
mercedes 2955 heavy water tanker
speed limts in the Territory are
