What do you drive???
Re: What do you drive???
I'd like a GTI next. They offer the Sport package with the Clark Plaid seats and no moonroof. Perfect.

Re: What do you drive???
5speed 4banger 2011 Tacoma 2x4 in silver which is apparently a rare bird given the reaction of the Toyota mechanics whenever I service her every 6 weeks. I did order directly from my Toyota finance brother. Simple, reliable, not a ticket magnet because it doesn't go so fast with my lead foot.
I love it as a daily driver as I put on a ton of miles a week now, but would like to revisit something faster later in life, assuming I can afford an a la carte sports car someday.
You LEO will get a kick out of this story: When driving my previous WRX STi (400hp at the wheels with tasteful mods -- what a fun car!) I got pulled over by the same CHP motorcycle Officer twice in 6 months and the first words out of my mouth were, "Hey, I remember you, Officer!" Doh! And that was my 3rd speeding ticket (not including fix-its) in that 6 month allotted time back in 2009. Not one since.

Totally unrelated but a friend of mine collects K1000s, has been buying them from police auctions here for years. Not many left now but they're very cool in an 80s way.

It's a 2014 Harley Davidson ElectraGlide Police Edition. I'd swap it out for a BMW R 1200 RT any day!

Re: What do you drive???
^^^are you guys getting BMW's for the department?
I've always had an appreciation for H-D as an American brand, etc., but damn those BMW R 1200 RT's are nice.
Going completely 180* away, I've actually been toying with the idea of buying one of those Urals with a sidecar to putt around with with my kids. I think they have about as much power as a modern moped (maybe less), but they are kinda cool and unique.

Re: What do you drive???
We have been trying to get Bimmers for a while. The RT is a purpose built police bike and suits our needs better than the Harley. That being said, we have ridden Harley's since 1918 and have 40 of them in the fleet.
I love the Ural's, that would be super fun to ride around town with the kids! I think they have 65 hp.

Beautiful. Must have been a cool experience to pick the car up at the factory and break it in on the Autobahn.

I've been looking at these too and am very concerned about long-term reliability.ericf4 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2017 8:21 ammy Lease on the Acura MDX is up soon and I gotta figure out the next car.

Re: What do you drive???
Seems like a big a gamble to take to me. $43000 to build it as I'd spec it and that comes with an unproven US track record. That said, it looks nice in the pics.ezcheese wrote: ↑Tue May 30, 2017 4:02 pmI've been looking at these too and am very concerned about long-term reliability.ericf4 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2017 8:21 ammy Lease on the Acura MDX is up soon and I gotta figure out the next car.
