A Wet Helmet:
My favorite vehicle that I've ever owned was one of these . Although this one wasn't mine, except that I had bucket seats (lifted out of a late 60s bronco) instead of the bench, mine looked about the same. It was tough as nails and would go anywhere. I once got rear-ended in that thing by a bright yellow Porsche 944. It totaled the Porsche, I sprayed some primer on my bumper so you couldn't see the yellow paint anymore. Done.
Other interesting vehicles I've owned: '56 Bel Aire. 64 1/2 Mustang. 66 Mustang GT convertible. In the not-cool-but-kinda-unusual category I had a 69 Toyota Corona and a Chevy Caprice that looked exactly like the ones the DC snipers were using. Oooh! I also owned a lowrider for awhile. That was an 82 S-10 that was freaking slammed. The hilarity of me driving that thing was the whole reason I had it. Me and a friend did a low rider cruise in Virginia Beach in it. Everybody was thumping bass, I was blasting the Bad Brains. It certainly drew stares. Currently I have a 71 Chevelle sitting in my driveway that I either need to sell or drive once in a while because it's really just going to waste.
Growing up my dad was into the British cars. We had a 51 MG TD, several MG Bs, and a Triumph Spitfire.
Something Witty:
I'm not saying I don't want a Lotus 7, I'm just being a realist.
Also the Honda Clarity works in cali because there are at least a few hydrogen fuel stations scattered around, James May covered it on an episode of Top Gear, They're not on every corner or anything, but they exist, but only in California, which is why the car is only for sale there.

Teaching adults sucks, many people get offended at any suggestion that they don't already know everything. Usually they don't really want to learn anything, they're just taking the class as a formality.
