oldskoolvws Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I'm dumb like that. There are certain cars / manufacturers I absolutely refuse to drive...sometimes ride in. My absolutely most hated manufacturer is Ford. If I rent a car and they give me a Ford, I request a change to anything else. If they don't have anything, I go elsewhere. Dumb. I have respect for what they have done, but I cannot bring myself to drive or own one of these. The GT40 and the 500 are pretty damn cool, but again, I'd pass. If I had to choose between my 1987 4runner or a 2013 Mustang, 4Runner any day of week. Another fail, the Aztec. Enough said. Prius, again, enough said. What will you not drive? Anything goes.

Tristin Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Now that I'm a bit older, I'll drive anything that's free. If I have to purchase it, I won't buy domestic cars. 1 Quote Link to comment

Kirden Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I won't drive HHRs, PT cruisers, aztecs, Cubes, Souls, ect. and those silly Mini Cooper Roadsters. The one box car I make an exception on is the original xB, but that is because I'm a big guy with a child and that thing has a ton of room and reminds me of A/V vans for competitions :P Other than that if its free I will drive it, but I would usually pass if anything 2000+ is gonna cost me money to get. I prefer ODB1 and older. Most hated manufacturer would have to be either Ford or lincoln, but I would honestly drive some of the old Ford's (mainly the 40-50s trucks). Quote Link to comment

datsunaholic Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I'm not proud. I'll drive anything with 4 or more wheels, really. I won't drive motorcycles or mopeds. I drove an AMC Hornet 4dr to school for 2 weeks. I've owned a Chevy Citation AND a Corsica. I intentionally bought both, to fix and drive. I still own a Chevy. And its my least favorite US mfg!. But couldn't touch the price for a diesel 4X4 with anything else- and it's ex-military. I've had Fords. I've never owned any foreign makes EXCEPT Datsuns though. And never had a Dodge, though my Dad was a Dodge man and my Mom still has the last one he got (a rare 2wd 8cyl Durango). While there's plenty of vehicles I'd never BUY, if someone gave me a running car, no strings attached, I'd drive it. Even a Yugo. Or a Chevette. They're bad enough to be kitschy, and a running one is rare enough. Hell, even a '87 Hyundai Excel, though I'd get rid of it before it died. But I'd also get rid of any car too expensive to insure. Drive for a week? No problem. But wouldn't keep. Things like a McLaren, or a Bentley. Sure, I'd drive one, but I could never keep one. I valet parked cars a few times in the past, especially when I worked for a car rental outfit. I usually got stuck with the crap because the middle-aged women accountants who had to do valet during the rush season couldn't drive stick, or crappy cars. The cars I hated the worst were Volkswagens. Completely nonsensical controls, particularly the shifter. But given the choice between walking across the Sahara and driving a VW, I'd take the VW.

Laecaon Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Hyundai/Kia/Ford. Hyundai and Kia should have faded away in the 90s. Ford, well they were never designed to be worked on. Quote Link to comment
Dguy210 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Ditto on the Fords Especially any 80s-90's Ford Taurus, Aerostar or F150. Actually most Ford's after the mid 70's really. I loved my old '72 mustang but anything newer from Ford always hurts my back (or just plain sucks). I drove a damn 2005 or so F150 for work for 3 hours one day and spent the next 2 days in horrible back pain... and I don't have back problems. Also any original (stock) VW beetle. I like the bugs and will (and have)ridden in and owned them, but driving one is physically uncomfortable for me without mods to the footpedals. Quote Link to comment
DRIVEN Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I never say never. When I buy a car, I view it as an investment. I'll own anything I think i can make money on. My unofficial policy is that I don't work on VWs. What's the last car I bought? A Vanagon. It's currently for sale and I will probably triple my money. Guess I'm just a whore. 2 Quote Link to comment
Kirden Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I would have said geo, but have you guys seen that geo metro build in the non Datsun vehicles? That thing is nice. and I kinda always liked the geo trackers... Quote Link to comment
