It has always been interesting to me that threads like this get so many responses, so fast.
I'm not trying to be a wet blanket here, I'm just surprised. Why would anyone care who drives what? Just interesting.
In this day and age, I don't particularly care to ID my car for the world at large. I would never post a pic of it, <span class="ev_code_RED">much less with the TAG NUMBER SHOWING, or any distinguishing features.</span>
Likewise, I would never put pics of my kids on the net. They are CUTE kids, but I wouldn't show 'em to the whole world.
Long ago, and far away, on a combat tour, I NEVER carried personal data. NO photos, nothing with anyone else's name, no addresses(memorize them), no letters(burn them). Dog tags, ID card, ration card, MPC, and whatever orders I had to have. NOTHING else.
I really don't mind, folks, just thought you might want to think about such things.

Daily driver-
2006 Lincoln Town Car (like driving your couch to work!)
Trailer-puller/"extra" car-
1999 Tahoe, ex-Michigan State Police. It was a beauty until someone from one of my neighbor's drunken parties hit-skipped it. I'm still debating getting the damage fixed, but it's now my 'second-string' vehicle. Fun to drive, and you can haul about anything in it or with it!

I drive the best MPG car around. 2005 VW Jetta,TDI. Gets 38/39 combined city/highway and around 45mpg on longer trips. It even beats the Prius in MPG. My hauler is a 2004 Trailblazer with 8000 miles on the odometer. Only used to haul something that want fit in the Jetta. Neither has required any repairs.

Lee, there are so many Mercury Sables in the world that you could never pick mine out of the crowd.
You can't throw a rock around here without hitting one. There are two more just like mine in my neighborhood alone. Same color and everything.
That's OK, though. At least I know where to get spare parts.

Pictures would be appreciated, sounds like a great car.
Our daily driver is a 2007 Subaru Outback Wagon. Good car for a retired couple during Wisconsin winters.

I totally agree, I didn't even realize that that my one picture had the plates showing. I actually found both pictures from google images.
I guess this actually goes to show you, that you really shouldn't post those kind of things on the net. You never know what kind of crazy wacko would use it in an internet thread. Or worse case scenerio do something mischievous with it.
