What vehicle do you miss?
Out of all the cars and trucks that you may have owned, or wanted to, what one or two do you miss the most?
To start, I miss my first and last Rangers. My first was a 1999 XLT with the "Sport" package. It was stock, but it had the 3.0L flex-fuel motor w/ a 5-spd. It was bright red w/ aluminum wheels. It ran 3X better than my next one w/ 3.0L & 5-spd; and I even managed to get up to 28 mpg with it on the open road at 70 mph w/ the A/C on. My last one was a sonic blue '03 supercab XLT 4WD w/ 4.0L and 5-spd auto. I had a AEM CAI, a JBA catback, and Jet chip in it, with 32" Firestones. Gas mileage sucked, but with the mods it ran great. It also still fit in my garage too! I miss that. So, what have any of you had that you miss now?

It would have to be our 74 Road Runner with a 440 in it. It was originally a 318 but bigger is better. My mom did pick up a 78 Camaro at an auction one time, had it at the shop and romped on it and the front wheels came off the ground about 6 inches and she said that I would never have that car.

My 1978 GMC on 35's with a 383 stroker that I got for $250 and put $500 into it. Gas was a killer though. Sold it for $2,000 and he dumped another grand or two in it. Than sold it for $5,000!
 Sucks as the guy doesn't want to sale it.:sadface:
