I know it's been a long time since we did one of these...

Show us how you get around !!

Car ,truck. boat, bus  bicycle or even ...feet..     what ever !!!!

Please include something about your mode of transportation

This is my little Toyota Matrix she takes me all around the island and then some... She gets around 38 mpg, and I'm happy for that! This shot was taken just as the snow began to fly.

Yes, this is how I got around most of last Sunday... in the snow.  ;o)

Love the feet photo.  Snow? North of Seattle and under those feet... Maybe we will get some this winter..wait and see.  

This is my 1991 Toyota..I go everywhere in this little truck.  On trips, we go in the mini-van.  I bought this in '91 expecting to take a 4 wheel drive back to the wonderful Outer Banks of North Carolina on the eastern coast of the USA.  We would go there, relax and do lots of surf fishing and walking a beach with almost no other folks around on the National Seashore. 

As things would be, we have not been back and I would need a new truck.  The trip would be possibly too much for this good work horse.  Tom

My 6yrs old Ford Explorer V8 US model, not made in some other country. (don't laugh, very important whos making your car) Too good and big for go to work  but very handy for shopping, perfect for towing caravan, boat. Suit fine for sleep in it when on holiday around australia. Saved my life twice, the keeper for sure. We just call it XP.

@Tom, I think the truck would do your holiday. They made for work.

Tom, good to see a truck older than Mine !!

**Here's my Dakota Sport 1995, and my home on wheels... I love this truck & camper!!

2005 Harley Davidson Electra Glide Ultra Classic.....20K miles in 15 months, including in snow flurries at 26 degrees.  Photo was taken at the Birdsong Hollow Bridge overlook on the Natchez Trace outside of Pasquo, TN.  Live to Ride, Ride to Live.  Live By It!

I'm going to feel a bit dwarfed here but here's a recent snap of my trusty 306 xsi, soon to be replaced (golf gti mk4) so it can consider this its eulogy =) ... this I think was the first picture I took to test my newly purchased wide-angle lens, playing around with perspective.... when time pressures allow I like to cycle

I know how 'dwarfed' feels... next week I'm replacing my 15-year old VW Polo. Wheels and tires are nearly dead, as is the motor, the suspension, the gearbox, and the exhaust. Rust and damage on all sides, but the most annoying thing is the fact that the rain somehow comes through the broken 'open air' roof... Everything is moist inside (the words 'splash, splash' are not exaggerated) and all the windows get condense all over... way too dangerous when the sun is low. Makes me so sick and tired that I don't want to waste a picture on it... ;o))

Btw, I'll be getting a Citroen Nemo Combi in a few days, a cute compact van-like car (in family version). I'm gonna be a happy man... ;o))

This is how :)
It's a BMW R1100GS from 1999. I ride it all year long in pretty much any weather.

It's funny how small the bike looks with me on :D

my ford mercury capri rs turbo, 79 from michigan.

i love 'him'! got him on my 18th birthday. this car is very rare here in austria, more rare it is, that a girl is driving it :D

i don't have enough money to make him drive again, so he sleeps for a long time in a garage 'til i'm rich :(

some people say, i should give it away but i'll never let him die. i have so many good and bad memories with this car, it's a part of my heart...

i hope i can get enough money and the right mechanician, because here it's hard to find good ones, which also knows the car. i also have to import original car parts from the usa, which also costs tooo much.

i want to drive him until i'm too old to drive :D

so for the next years, i have to use my feet or the bus, but just wanted to share this pic of a really great oldie (imo). mine :)

wish me luck!

I hope you can get the old car full of memories up and running again....
In the garage where it is parked, is that a cover to a hole in the floor. a pit where a mechanic can work from below?   Best wishes. Good photos.

had to rescue this thread before it dropped off the bottom... got my new car a few weeks ago (and managed a speeding ticket the day after getting it... oops! first one though so not to worry, and not to be repeated hopefully now I've gotten a bit more used to it... bit of an odd angle/distortion and just in the regular spot it's parked outside the house. you can make out the reflections of the house and the wall in the car (and possibly even me, not sure at this resolution, maybe worth a fullsize click)... anyway it has replaced the car I posted a pic of above, and not only that it brought a huge grin to my face in the process =D

hope you get your car restored somday mila, looks like a first car with plenty of character....
and also hope you're enjoying your combi Citroen Geert

cheers,
Adam.

Yes I'm enjoying it Adam, thanks. It's fun to be in a car that is dry on the inside...
