True–America’s FORD Series are the World’s Best Selling, Most Popular , Toughest, and simply Best Trucks. I have owned 6 consecutive Ford F-Series Trucks. These Fords are the standard for anyone who seriously wants a hard-working, hard playing, reliable, and dependable truck for all seasons and climates. You can’t beat the facts and can’t do better than the World’s Best Seller for over 42 straight years-FORD F-SERIES—-Drive One, you’ll clearly see why! I know from over 55 years of excellent Ford F-Series Experience and happy Ownership.

I’m with you on that. Current commuter, a 2015 Mustang Fastback. In the garage (for weekends), a ’36 Ford 5 window coupe.

I am now 64 and on social security. I need a car I can afford and rely on. With my future getting shorter every day, I picked the Golf Type R, retails around $42k new. I own a 2017 GTI Sport with DSG and it is a nice looking car that’s fun to drive. It gets over 20 mpg city and cost me $24,750 new. The Type R has all the bells and whistles that my GTI Sport doesn’t have. I plan to save up for the dream car instead of investing money into mods for my GTI. It will never be a Type R. For now it’s a dream, 5 years from now it could become a reality.

Forget the foreign cars you wouldn’t be caught dead in one. It wasn’t about luxury or comfort speed was king.

It was an EL Camino S/S The newest car we own now is a 1977 Camaro which is my wifes daily car. My daily drivers are a 1967 C-10 1948 Chevy 2-door a1949 ford rat rod 2-door and a1923 ford t-bucket I built in the early 1970S. New cars do nothing for me!

I have gone form fast cars in the early 70’s to what I needed for the Family to be safe and to the required space for you kids and wife.
I have always had a car and a truck so I could use it for work and fun. I started our House at 18 and we built it from the Ground up! 5 1/2 years to build as we lived in the basement, we used to buy everything thing on sale, from lumber to windows and everything needed to build the home. I have now built 5 new homes in the past 44 years and trucks and cars have been a big part of that life. We just bought our 170th vehicle a week ago. We have owned just about everything that has been made in America. We still own a Chevy Truck, Jeep, GMC, Ford motor home. I still have the need for speed, so I have my red convertible Vett!
I have loved everyone of them and wish I could have kept them all! Cars are a passion, love and a curse to me as I can never say NO!
