What do you drive?

drstratton · Jan 8, 2016

Betty, my sister in law had this 57 Chevy restored. We lost her a few years ago and we inherited her beautiful pickup! I like to share it in remembrance of her! It is so much fun to drive! I love to see my husband and sons behind the wheel they are 6', 6'2" & 6'3" and I always laugh as it looks like their knees are getting close to their ears (okay, maybe I exaggerated a bit) My daughter and I fit much better in the driver seat!

Beautiful truck, love them old chevys.

I just picked this one up for my Christmas/B-day present to myself last week.

Sweet! I would imagine yours to be a much more comfortable ride!

Oh and Happy Birthday!

They're super nice. I went from a Grand Cherokee, to an Overland, to an SRT in like a 5 year period. I always joked that when my 1 year XM Radio trial was up, it was time to trade in. I think the Overland did better in the snow...The tires on the SRT as really wide so it slides around a tad bit more. I like that it has a ridiculous amount of power for an SUV, yet it blends into traffic nicely...AND it doesn't cost over 100k like a Range Rover Sport, Cayenne Turbo, X5-M, etc.

Good to know! I was looking at the SRT, it is nice to have power when you need it.

I haven't done as much wheelin' as I use to. ( my 4th Jeep).
The sticker shock on this one keeps me off the risky trails.
Done a couple trips to the ocean in the sand, and a few mud runs up by Shelton.
Now that I have a couple scratches on it ( removing the hardtop by myself), I'm getting back into it more.

I'm not really into rock stuff.

I can understand that! My son has a Jeep and belongs to a club, they go wheeling in the mountains. He's pretty cautious, but some of the pictures they share are kinda scary.
