'05 Kia Sorento. Nothing special, but with 8.5" of ground clearance, mechanically locking transfer case, LSD in the back and some decent M+S tires it was probably one of the fastest cars around today.

What do you drive when the Mustang is put away?

Had a local photographer take some rolling shots this fall. Would love to do it myself, but I don't trust anyone to drive my car. lol He does awesome work though!

Hot! You purposely save those shots taken in fall, for the winter eh? Mine is tucked away - sadly

yeah, it's more than that, but yeah ... no way I would drive the Mustang on snowy / salty roads again ... did that for the first 2 winters (before it got supercharged) and I can still tell all the rust damage that caused ...

And the truck has been awesome ... I bought it with some scratches/dings already on it, so if / when additional damage shows up, it doesn't hurt so much ... plus it's a blast to drive ... plenty of power for what it is, and I've towed with it, and I've carried over 1,00 lbs of crushed stone with it, many times, while working on the house / driveway/retaining wall ...
I love this truck!

I hear you Gabe. Trucks are awesome for the utility and longevity. I feel similarly about the little old Kia. I've rocked this thing from coast to cost. It's been from Maine to Montana. I've had an ORV permit on it and trashed it in ORV parks from upper Michigan to Wyoming. I went through 3 sets of skid plates.

And it can fit a face cord of firewood. When this thing finally goes it will be a sad day.

Haha, ya. My internet is insanely slow. Took me forever to download them. Hopefully we'll have an early spring like last year. I miss mine too.

Ha, you'd be surprised. There is even an aftermarket for mods. I would love to have this one:

I haven't cleaned my truck in over a year ... it gets no car washes or any kind of detailing.
It's the vehicle I don't really care about, while at the same time being my very reliable daily transportation and awesome winter ride.

It's been dirtier, but because of its height, it takes some real determination to get it really dirty, lol

Because mine stay "on road" Martin, as opposed to "off road".

I have a friend who drives his '07 GT in the snow in Colorado. Slaps snow tires on it and goes. Says Mustangs are too much fun to be stuck in a garage. I think he's right personally.
