[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] *flat look* I love them and have loved them since 1985. Yes, most 'stock' DeLoreans have problems. Mine isn't stock. But, moving on... I wanted a DeLorean since I was about ten years old, so that was pretty much a given. Jen is in lust with the new Ford GT40, and some day when she saves up $150,000, she'll probably get one. *heh* I inherited my grandmother's old Crown Vic that my cousins had been steadily tinkering with for close on twenty years. And all that's missing out of that list is something to haul the big stuff. I don't like pickups and neither does Jen. We both agree, however, on liking the Ford Bronco, so that's covered. As for four cars for slightly different purposes... Well, the DeLorean has six cylinders to the Crown Vic's eight, and is more fuel-efficient for, say, going to work -- plus it's a lot easier to park. But the Crown Vic has much better trunk space (shopping) and a back seat (cooler and various other crap for road trips). And I apologise for my unclear wording up there. Of all these cars, the only one I consider 'mine' is the DeLorean. The two big ones will be joint property. But I'm the one who usually drives when we go shopping together. *shrug* Bear in mind also that Jen obviously doesn't have her GT40 yet, and we don't have the Bronco either. A two-car garage doesn't seem that excessive, and by the time we [i]do[/i] have all four, we'll be living in the house we're going to build up in Northern California, and underground parking was an early no-brainer. I've never liked how garages spoil the appearance of a house, the way most contemporary builders do it. --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
