Aw Yeah Son... New Wheels!

[Doctor Destiny 41]

As some of you may or may not know, I used to own a Jeep. Well, in January, the engine block decided to crack and I didn't have the money to replace the engine a second time. So I sold that son of a bitch and bought me a Ford Explorer. It was a gamble purchase and it's been shaky so far, but it's finally road legal and driveable.

 

 

Still got some problems with it, but I'm at least not having to use my dad's van all the time.

You could have just driven around the ride on mower pictured on that trailer

 

But seriously, nice wheels

[Doctor Destiny 41]

That mower doesn't start. xD

[Nyerguds 100]

It's also not street legal, I think

New wheels = check. I bet that SUV is a used vehicle, am I right?

[Guest Stevie_K]

What's the deal with Americans and SUV's?

Looks like a pretty nice car though.

I can't afford brand new. So yeah, it's used. Like every other car we have except the van.

I'm a big American. Tiny cars and I don't mix well.

It rides and drives pretty well, and it's got 4WD so I can drive around no problem in the winter.

Only thing I like about SUVs is you can see a lot more, aside from that they're like boats with wheels.

 

Looks good otherwise.

SUVs:

* Tow boats, Tractors, trailers, and all kinds of other stuff

* Go offroad without dying

* Carry lots of people

* Carry lots of stuff (gonna stick those boards in the back of a Peugeot? )

* You can actually see the road around you

 

Y'all just jealous Looking good DD.

Oh wait, it's the US, never mind

[Doctor Destiny 41]

It's not bad here. Only about $50 for a full tank. Some places in the US pay even more. XD

A full tank is how much?

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Roughly 18 to 20 gallons, but I don't usually fill up more than 14 to maybe 17.

[Gben 20]

20 gallons is approx AUD$105... aah no thanks.

[Inferno 22]

20 gallons is almost 140 euros here, which is about 190 (US) dollars.

Yeah, it'll be hard to top that, only Turkey and Norway are more expensive than the Netherlands.
