I found out awhile back that a friend of mine who's nearly my height and build bought a mini Cooper.
He was really happy with it, as it's his favorite vehicle to commute in.
Of course, I'd like a Ford F150...but that's just me....Especially since we only have just one vehicle - it'd be nice to have a second - so better half doesn't always have to be the Taxi.
In any event, I had a chance to sit in one the other day, and to be honest, I rather liked it.
Now, I'm 6'4" and a pretty big guy...so, if it can fit a couple of guys my size - it's worth trying to get one.
So - I'll be submitting an entry for this as well...won't you?
What is your favorite vehicle?

I have two vehicles, and I sometimes think it's one too many. I surely don't need another.
I drive a 2004 Toyota Highlander. It's an excellent SUV, never had a problem!
Better than the 2004 Pontiac Sunfire I had before the Highlander... wow, that was a POS and only lasted about three years :P
I drive a 2001 PT Cruiser. I can't wait to trade that piece of shit in. It's been a terrible car, and expensive to repair and maintain. Never buy Chrysler.
I "drive" a 2009 Schwinn High Timber.
@blonde_apocalypse - you are blessed to have two.
@Cestovatelka - I like the highlander also.
@the_rocking_of_socks - yes, we learned our lesson with having a chrysler
@HeLLo_Bianca - My first car was a 1977 VW beetle...best car ever.
@hippiechristian73102 - goin' green - very cool
@agent1500 - Thanks
Dear Joel,
My present car, a 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder, is the very first car I told myself I was going to buy someday (back in 1994 when that body style was introduced and I saw the car at the L.A. Car Show. ) I was ready to buy a new car in 2000 and as luck would have it Mitsubishi changed the body style that year, and didn't even offer the convertible. I had to search high and low to get a slightly used 1999 model. (It was a popular style, featured in the 1st movie "The Fast and Furious". )
Now I've had it for over a decade.
In 2006 I wanted to get one of the retro Mustangs, even though I've been a Chevy man all my life. The convertible costs about 25 grand however.
Now I have my eye on a Honda CR-Z, the first hybrid sports car. No convertible yet, and the price has gone up three grand in the past couple of months. It was only $16,000 when introduced.
If I do get a CRZ this year, I won't worry about the fact it isn't a convertible.
I own the Spyder outright, and I'll just keep it.
Good luck on the mini Cooper. They're quite popular out here in SoCal.
