Re: Car/Personality
Oh No, I suppose it's time to confess to having more than one personality. I am a blue jean and t-shirt blue collar guy. When I am not driving my Crossfire I am in my '99 Jeep Cherokee. It's old, a little rough, seen a lot of miles, creaks and rattles, is dependable, trustworthy, works hard and doesn't shy away from a tough road.
The Crossfire is more about the rewards of the past 40 years. It's classier and way better looking than than I deserve (just like my wife). It says I have earned the right to relax, just a little and take the road less traveled. It less a about the destination and more about the journey. It's about FUN.
If your are talking about the Jeep or the Crossfire they both have something in common. They are both what I like to think are tastefully modded. Nothing to flashy but highly functional and darn good at what they do, kinda like myself I suppose. So yep I do believe my vehicle or vehicles are an extension of my personality or personalities.

Where is the bell curve ? Is that somewhere on the Dragon, or is it on the HellBender ?
And George, The truth is found on the Dragon but the Hellbender separates men from fools. And either one rings my bells every time I run thru.

Re: Car/Personality
Man, if my cars are a reflection of who I am, I must be some sort of psychotic mess! (lol). Besides my newly acquired Crossfire Roadster, I have a 1995 Corvette Coupe, a 2000 Mercedes SL500 roadster, a 2006 Mustang GT Convert, a 2008 Cadillac STS V-8, and a 2009 Ford Explorer 4x4. Very diverse cars with some things in common, but mostly each with very distinct "personality. The really only common thread in all of these cars is that all have extremely low mileage and are totally original and in exceptional condition. I like what I like and don't care what is popular or the fad of the day....I just like certain cars and love having a small collection of my favorites to own, preserve, drive, and collect. There are some amazing buys out there right now which give "average" folks the opportunity to own some nice sporty/luxury cars that were (not too long ago) way above my head in cost!!

First, I changed my Crossfire. Little work and painted the trim black. Then, my Crossfire changed me! I have a black leather jacket and hat for driving. It won't let me smoke a cigar when I am driving! I am not sure what my Crossfire is going to ask of me next.
