Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?


Just curious. People have asked about watches,
cigars, beer, and even ones income here.

1: What do you drive (daily & weekends)?
2: What might you be driving in the future?
3: What would you drive if $$$ was no object (pick 2 ;-)?

My answers to the above:
1: Toyota truck.
2: Newer Toyota truck.
3: Lamborghini Murcielago & McLaren F1.

Typical??? heh
Daily 1992 Camry 4 cyl 5 spd./1987 loaded GMC conversion van
Weekends. Nice red and white bowrider with GM power :>)

No limit car......would not be a car at all.
If you wanna know what I would have, no $$ limit...here it is www.502ss.com :) :) :) :)
Yeah, that truck gives me a full on ch@&&y!
Can you imagine pulling up to the light with a Z28 and ROASTING him?? Oy, The HUMANITY!!!

Did you catch the guys window rolling up as the race ended?
What about the shake when the driver goosed it at the light?
Talk about shame.....he he

Gumbydammits favorite vehicle of all time: 1979 Ford E150 Cargo Van with a self-installed ONANL634TA Diesel (right out of a UPS delivery van....boy was that fun!) witha four speed behind it. 24 MPG, 125 Horses and GOBS of low end. Plus that nice turbo whistle...ahhhhhhhh
People with the Navistars used to ask me why it whistled. Home built cars are very rare and cool, always!
Something like that Suburban would be for after I make my second million :>) I like practical. On land anyway. On water, now that is a whole different affair.

BTW, I dont own the Tab 50's. Mine are the first issue of the TabII's...
(Dating myself huh?)
They are playing the MFSL LP Alan Parsons Tales of Mystery and Imagination as I type this. Ahh such a smart guy!
I should have listed this as a recording to die for!
Dynami 28, if you listen to your audio in-car at even remotely close to those levels, you will not have hearing long enough to worry about being an audiophile.
SPL competition in cars and good sound seem to be at odds to me.
(And I run class A amps, with 300 clean watts to double 6.5's in my door pods.)
I don't even get involved in the car audio thing anymore, because all the kids I helped to properly install their system are basically deaf now from "competing."

I wish the best of luck. I hope you wear hearing protection.
