Mine is a Dodge caravan from my company so I don't pay anything for it, which saves a lot. Nothing is power and it has a cage behind the front seats and the back is setup for cargo. It's a real POS but I can drive it for personal use and with the price of gas going up it is worth it. My mustang is only used for going to the grocery store and country drives on the weekends.

Oh yeah... I love that Gibson SS... It's funny because the little 3.0 has a pretty deep sound (even with all 5 converters) and it doesn't sound ricey at all - at least I don't think it does...

at this time it's my 93 5.0 lx. 111k miles, and i drive it 76 miles one way to work everyday. i've put 10k on it in 2 months. it had only 86k on it in april when i replaced the motor. i haven't put that much miles on it in the 5 years prior[it sat for over a year when i didn't replace the radiator cause i didn't spend the time to do it]. had it 7 years now, and it's never ran as good as it does now. i also have an 03 mach 1, but i let my best friend take it to california after his transmission went on his f350, and he got a ride back to jersey with his friends in a band. we're going to drive it back next month. have an 86 chevy 3/4 ton utility. i just put in a 396 big block after the remanufactured 350 blew a cylinder. luckily it was under warranty with only a week before the 3 years expired. finally my 2004 f350 6.0 diesel which after hearing all the horror stories about them i ignored. after around 85k miles or so it started having a few problems, egr, injectors. then a piston blew, and the motor went. my best friend i let borrow the mach 1,said he wouldhand me over the title, and give me his 2000 f350 7.3 diesel with a vegetableoilgrease kit for nothing! he is planning on getting something else and has a few others vehicles. i'm planning on taking off the utility body off my 04, and putting it on the 00, and putting that bed on the 04. after that i'm just gonna trade in the 04 as is with the blown motor. so it's been a bad year for me with blowing 3 motors even though both the trucks weren't my fault. the 5.0 had a bad valve cover gasket leak, and urinated all the oil out, and seized the engine. right now though it's my daily driver! oh and whoever said something about hating fwd cars earlier in this thread word to that.
