A thread about trucks, motorbikes...whatever

[Marie5656]

OK...due to popular demand, or not. A thread about trucks, motorbikes and things with wheels. Go to town

I have a Toyota Rav 4. Gets me where I need to go.

OK..your turn.......

 

[MarciKS]

I have a broken down ford escort at the moment. no motorbikes or trucks here. And I probably need a new vacuum.

 

[Murrmurr]

Mine is an old 2004 Kia Sedona, a passenger van. I let my (former) foster son paint it when he was 3.





I'm trying to preserve it as well as I can. I think it looks beautiful. He got to pick out all the colors, too.

My wife drives a red 2018 Camry. Not nearly as eye-catching as my old Kia.

In light of the season:

My daughter has a Rav 4 Hybrid... as well, Marie...

this is my Ford...

This is my Jeep cherokee in Spain.. and before someone else asks, as they did last time I posted it..I obliterated the number plate on here.. it's not an Arab car...

 

[jujube]

I'm on my fifth Toyota. The fourth one ran very well for 14 years; it's probably still out there on the road.

I have a trolley that I pull to the grocery store, if I know I’m not buying much but some items are heavy.

When I was looking to buy my current car, both my brother and niece advised me to get a Toyota...does not matter the model. Just get a Toyota. It has served me well for 3 years and counting

Well, I've always heard that if you buy a Toyota make sure it's one you really like 'cause you'll be driving it for a long, long time.

Oh, I love the Rav4. Handles well in winter..which is important here in NY State

 

[hollydolly]

This is one of my old cars (this is the only car I ever bought new ) and one of our motorbikes..

I am still driving my 2001 RAV4. I have replaced the radiator and a window motor and that is it. I love it and am considering doing some cosmetic work.

 

[Pinky]

We're on our umpteenth Honda Accord. It's probably our last car.

 

[hollydolly]

This is my old Citroen parked in the lane

I know I’m on ignore but that’s a cool looking bike. My Ninja looked similar in style and I absolutely adorned it. My husband made me get rid of it cause it made him scared and I stupidly did it. It’s a regret I have to this day.
I biked 1/2 way across Canada. It was super exciting. Riding is something I miss. I’ve now got an ebike. It’s not the same lol

 

[CinnamonSugar]

Ready to take on the open road!

OK, Marie, get your laughing gear on and we'll be away..... by the way, did I tell you about my tinitus?

I married a Canadian, our prenup was that she didn't come between a motorcycle and me. Hers was that I stay away from clubs.
I preferred a farm bike to a 4X4.

@Rakaia, I’m not sure where I thought Joondalup was but I finally looked it up. (Naughty me, diverting from the topic of wheels.)

 

[MarciKS]

Mine is an old 2004 Kia Sedona, a passenger van. I let my (former) foster son paint it when he was 3.

That’s so darn cute. At the time I owned my bike, I had a large German shepherd. If I had a dog trailer or something similar, she may have loved to go. It looks like your dog loved it

Now you’ve REALLY diverted off topic!
The topic is wheels Ripley. Not pumpkins with wheels. And where’s the driver? This is ALL so wrong. ( I’m totally joking with you )

You seem to have the patience of a saint Murrmurr.

Yes he really did love it, he was a working dog and I had to keep him in a headlock when we were in a stocked paddock. He could hold a sheep and I would get a crook on its leg and then I could treat it. The bike had electric start an automatic clutch and sidestand on each side, sometimes I had a sheep on the tank and the dog on the back. This was in New Zealand in the 80's.

That’s the thing about pets and other animals; they adapt. With encouragement they can do more than we often give them credit for. That’s so cool.

When I travelled, I met quite a few big burly bikers with sidecars , trailers , boxes with windows carrying the cutest box terriers or yorkies with them. Some even had jackets and helmets.

Some bikers have been the nicest people I’ve ever met in my life. That was like a flash back to the past of good memories. Thanks
