But what vehicle would you not drive given it’s stigma.

We all know them.

Myself….a Cadillac. But not because they havnt been making amazing vehicles lately. But because my dad drives ones. That and I feel like they are just an overpriced Chevy so when I see someone driving them I admire the vehicle but think….dang, you threw away a lot of extra money.

I would totally drive a Cadillac CT5 V Blackwing or and older CTS-V (especially the wagon!).

I would not however, ever drive a Buick. Nothing they have now, or have ever made really appeals to me, including the Grand Nationals and GNX.

Bro dozer.

Done right they can look kinda cool.

I'm not sure if there's anything I wouldn't drive because of a stigma surrounding it. I mean I currently daily drive a V8 pickup truck associated with rednecks and the right typically... I'm neither. I also have a bugeye WRX and don't vape or have any intention of slamming it or anything else typically associated with WRX owners.

But you've posted links of trucks with typical brodozer mods. Super wide wheels and rubber band off-road tires with lift kits....

You would drive a 3/s again?

You wouldn’t drive a GN? Wow!!! Okay.

Drove someone’s onetime. Made me realize I would never. Ever. Want one either.

Sure, but I also doubt I'll buy one again. Not because of any stigma but because it doesn't fit any needs/wants anymore for me.

My grandma had one, it was cool. I would own one.

Are you talking about owning or just driving? Because your first post made it sound like what would you never want to own...but are you saying you wouldn't even drive a Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing because your dad owns a Cadillac??

I would drive a GN to drive one, but have zero desire to ever own one, and there are many other cars I would own before a GN (and many other cars I'd rather drive before a GN as well for that matter).

I mean owning, being your daily.

Yes I wouldn’t drive that caddy because my whole life I’ve given my dad crap for his caddy. Even though they are bad ass.

Wait, now it's not just owning, but also being a daily?? You are all over the place here...

I'm not sure I know anyone that would drive a GN as a daily.

Very true. I guess you don’t have to daily it. But you have to at least own and drive it. That’s fair.


Coop

And I’m always all over the place. That’s the great thing about talking to people, figuring it all out.

Well I wouldn't 'drive' an electric bike because it'd take too long to recoup the money vs the bike I already have. I'd gladly own one though if someone was giving it away.

I wouldn't want a car that costs more than my mortgage is currently, even if you gave it to me [I'd immediately re-sell it]. Unlike WA these states in the SE tend to hit below the belt with property tax on vehicles.

Is there anything in your life that isn't a financial equation?

I would rock a Grand National. Those cars were done right, minus the shape of a cinder block.


On a site note I am seriously looking at purchasing a Prius. Things are far away and gas is expensive on the west coast.
