Slightly Off Topic, Other cars
peterm:
Seems that a lot of us have other daily drivers, are they mostly mercedes or are there other passions? Lets hear what else is in the driveway. BTW the average Autoweek reader owns 5 cars

hauser:
My '69 280sl only sees the outside of the garage if weather permits. Depending on what I have to do that day determins what I will drive. If I have to haul something I use my 1990 Toyota 4X4 extra cab. If I want something sporty then my 1995 E320Coupe. The family hauler is a 2003 Honda Odyssey with the DVD entertainment package. Excellent for the kids! Or my former family wagon a 1999 ML320.

n/a:
We subscribe to Car Craft, so we only have three headaches-on-wheels. At least they're all rag tops.
'86 VW Cabriolet - the high-gas-price heap
'68 280 SL - the medium-gas-price heap
'68 Olds 442 - the low-gas-price heap. 7.5 liters and 500 foot pounds of pure fun!
We did recently come close to buying an early ('83) Porsche Cabriolet, and I think one will join the stable eventually (mainly to replace the VW). There's one non-convertible in the woodpile I'm not mentioning, but it's really my college-aged son's bomb.
I'll attach a pic of the two 68s. The VW, BTW, just happens to be red.

1968 280SL 4 speed manual
n/a:
Our daily drivers are a 2000 VW Eurovan and a 2003 Chevy Silverado. The two MBs, a 2004 230 SLK and the 1965 230 SL sit in the garage until the time is right. Although recently my wife is driving the SLK more and more because, as she says, it gets better mileage [:p].

- '73 1800ES Volvo
- '79 450SEL
- '80 635CSI Euro BMW
The 450 has the best ride/handling tradeoff (in my opinion), while the 1800 is the most all-around fun to drive (excluding all of the attention it gets).
