Kobiashi dreaming continued . . . (continued from the previous page)

When we left off, kobiashi was discussing how he would need a sedan, a sports car, and a truck to cover his bases. Let's join him now as he discusses which sports car and truck he would get.

___________________ . _________________

For the sports car, without question, the McLaren F1




and for the truck, also no question, SVT Lightning



That about covers it . . .

Let's see, what's that gonna run . . .
cost of the three cars
Rolls = 320,000.00
F1 = 1,000,000.00
Lightning = 33,000.00
CA tax and L = 135,300.00
CA Gas Guzzler Tax probably about 40,590.00

Total cost three vehicles = $ 1,528,890.00
(yes, that's MILLION)

Anyone want to contribute?
ABA and bank routing numbers available upon request if you wish to wire funds to my account,
or, make cheque payable to:

The Kobiashi Essential Vehicle Trust Fund

k

Disclaimer: The above is just a joke. I am not soliciting funds, I'm just kidding, this isn't real, in no way do I want you to send any money, don't for a second think I was serious about the asking for money thing. OK!?!?

In any order:
--Fully restored 1969 Mustang Mach 1--
--Fully modded Y2K Ford F150 XLT--
That'd do it for me!!






Oh, and I'd buy my husband a Harley and anything he wanted/needed for his Bronco!!

Wow...ruff choice.

*Daily driver...a Ford modular V10 powered Avanti
*Weekender...a '62 or '63 light weight SuperDuty Catalina, black of course
*Truck...a '56 F100. on an '04 F150 frame with a built FE motor
*Wife's ride...either a new 300 C, or an XLR...Her choice

My plain old 2002 F150 is what I would take, no matter how much I had. For my fiance, I would by her whatever SUV she wanted, mainly Navigator or Expedition. I'm not into exotic vehicles that much, as I think most of them are pretty ugly.

Ok, don't take this the wrong way, but are you %*#(@ nuts?! Its a hypothetical question - and there HAS GOT to be some vehicle in the back of your head that gives you wood when you think about it. There are SOOOOOO many increadible cars out now it would be shame to limit yourself to the Ford Family. Today's auto market is a car-lovers dream come true!!!

Good call.......

Frankly I would have to make a couple mods. Install a blower for obvious reasons and 4x4 for exploring the bush.



That thing would make for a helleva fun road trip..

I would have to go with a fully loaded FX4 and a 1970 Mustang Mach I with the 1969 fender cutouts and nitrous. I'm not into the exotics. Every Chevy I've owned has been a POS and I don't see anything from Chrysler that I just have to have.

A supercharged 4x4 Weiner mobile, I like they way you think! Maybe we need an SVT edition.

Well of course I would keep my FX4, but would mod the hell out of it.
Then the new lightning





And my all time favorite..Lamborghini Diablo

I'm brand new to the forum. Just joined this morning. Was checking out posts and ran across this one. What better way to get to know some of the F-150 people than posting my dream list. So, here it is!

For fun:
'41 ****** Coupe - styled like the old gasser dragsters. Just because they're rockin' cool.
'35 Delahaye Type 135 - So stylish! And you never see them in real life.
My son's '89 Merkur Scorpio - restored to like-new. Another cool car you don't see enough of on the road.

For fast:
'70 Pontiac GTO Judge
'68 Mercury Cyclone GT
'69 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II Cale Yarborough Special

For everyday:
'05 Lincoln LS
'05 Dodge Magnum wagon (with the Hemi, of course!)
My beater '85 Ford F-150 - restored to like-new and minus the ladder-rack.

Hope everyone gets a good laugh out of this list. Hope to talk to some of you more soon.

Missy

i would still drive this:

but it would have twin turbos.

i would have enough money to finish this one too:


plus:
toyota supra (with a big a$$ turbo of course)
buy my buddies '71 chevelle 454ss
build another '55 chevy (i really miss that car)
convertable m3 of course.
jeep wrangler, year doesn't matter, as long as it had 35's and a v8

i would rather build a classic hot rod than buy an exotic any day.
