Midlife crisis car (or truck)

[vroombaby]

What would anyone here get? We joke bunches in our house that one day we will both get our own MLCC's but so far nothing yet. I guess the times are not that crazy just yet, oh and that whole recession has kind of pushed us back too. :heh:

My dream car is a land-yacht: a 69 Cougar RX7 rag top BOSS (WINDSOR), from the first manufacturing 1/4: there was a factory flaw in the leather steering wheel. It'd have to have posi and a shift-kit....

I think I have too many to pick just one. If price wasn't an option I would get a Candy Apple Red Shelby Mustang. I think that's a pretty good MLCC.

I want a Jeep! One of those little ones, with the soft sides that can be removed and preferably a manual transmission. I have always liked Jeeps!

I think if money was not an option we would have a large collection, one for each mood type and then maybe a few extra too. We would need an old beater too since at some point the kids will start learning to drive too.

I'm hoping my truck lasts as long as I do. Although I doubt it. But it should last through that part of my life. But getting a karmann ghia to fix up would be fun.

We are so much in debt right now that I can't even spend money in my dreams. However, I would like to drive a classic car although I can't make up my mind about which one. I wish I had access to Jay Leno's garage.

Leslie's Jeep idea sounds pretty good. My wife and I have talked about getting a Jeep someday, since we've never had one and they look fun. Beyond that, a nice sporty convertible sounds like a good MLCC to me. That might be the stereotypical choice, but I could still see myself going in that direction.

I would love to get a Jeep also (maybe a Landrover). A Jeep is powerful and sounds accordingly, and it needs only minor maintenance (isn't it?). But I wonder what the wife thinks about it.

O man, I totally blew it...

I didn't mention the Ford GT40.... and I'd own one of them in a heartbeat. I saw one the other day, totally restored to factory, and I admit that my jaw dropped: that is one damned sexy machine.

I think its funny some of the stuff we thought when we were younger that we would "never drive" we each probably have one in the driveway right now. I can not wait until my crisis, I have a feeling its going to be a fun one!
