My new car

Hello all,
Well, Wolf bought me a new car for the days I carpool and to take the dog wherever he needed to go. Seeing as Wolf has decided he wants eother a CL65 or SL65 did he get me a GL or an M class? No, we got a brand new 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe

Why? The Sante Fe is butt ugly and has no business sharing valuable real estate with the rest of your fine stable!
Is old Wolfie smoking some of the hippie hay??

I wonder if the Santa Fe's hp is as the factory claims?

Sorry had to do it.

I think I picked one of those out of the grille of my escalade this morning. Poor thing must have been trying to merge.

Hey, I'll race you in the 1/4 mile any time mister! That is as long as I have a 1/8 mile headstart and I just MIGHT be able to beat you... maybe

its a good carpool vehicle...if someone spills their coffee.....the related stress is not near that as if it were a brand new ML. Also....if you should have to go to a department store of some kind...you can park right up front amoungst the peasants car and worry not about door dings

That is pretty much why we chose this car. I drive Pig Pen to school 2 times a week. This is a girl who after I tolf her last week while driving the E55T that there was no food or drink in the car, took a slushie out of her backpack while I was driving and then told me it was not food or drink. Who keeps a dixie cup of slushie in their backpack?

It's just a temporary solution until the CL65 or the SL65 arrives...

Naw...we'd still keep it no matter what. I do have to point out that when I drivethe new pos I still have either a E55T or SLK55 in the garage to play with Besides, I would rather see Wolf in his CL65 or SL65 than me in a GL450.

The truth comes out. But you should state it correctly.. you are cheap when it comes to MY car As long as there is always an AMG in the garage for Wolf to drive he's a happy man

$20 says the Hyundai will be more reliable than the W211s.

I would not mind your Santa Fe!

We have a 1996 Land Rover. To start, we once tried to give it away to charity but they wouldn't even take it !!! When we first got it we took great care of it but it still broke down once or twice a month. For some reason we held onto it and let me tell you it is THE COOLEST thing ever now. I took out the air filter completely (give that baby a couple extra half-horses ) and I want to cut off the mufflers...just for fun. The thing is almost 100% metal and it is heeaavvyy. If I floor it on a 25% incline I'd get to 15mph in mayyyybe 8 seconds. But man, if you ever feel like dicking around in a dirt lot, a '96 LRs the car to have. I'm not saying you should thrash your new car as much as I do my old, but hey, you never know when boring will turn into .

Chances are I will drive this nicely for the next 100K or so miles while Wolf buys 3-4 new cars to play with. Life is good!
