Cars are not interesting, now if you want to talk motorcycles ....... This is my current ride it will eat most cars without even breaking a sweat. My bike would eat most bikes without breaking a sweat: Note the number plate At Eastern Creek Raceway: Super Blackbird ... worlds fastest production bike back in the 90s ... horses for courses ... in that pic above - you want to try leaning it over a bit

Eh ... a Prius (2012 model)?
It’s a funny car, feels like it taking time to decide whether to use the engine or the electric motor whenever I press the gas pedal. Getting electricity back from the breaking is cool though. 40~45mpg, depending on how much I drive on the highway,

What I drive. Not as exciting as most of the other vehicles here, but it's really comfortable on long trips.

Trucks are actually easier to back in so one just needs to plan the approach a little more carefully than in a car.

2016 Dodge 3500 dually Mega-Cab. Black. I use it rarely but it carries my tools and parts for my rigs when I need it. Only 1123 miles on the odometer. Still got that new truck smell. 2004 Dodge Dakota SE Quad-Cab. White. Great little truck. Still in perfect order, no dents or scratches. 120k on the odometer with only a waterpump change, 3 sets of tires and 3 batteries.

It is too bad we got small streets here, so it is not really useable to drive one.

I concur. I can't tell if nightmarepatrol's truck has the extended bed or not, but I don't have many problems backing my F150 (crew cab, 5' bed) into a spot. I don't bother trying to parallel park, though. If I'm driving into the city, I take one of our smaller vehicles.

If I'm driving into the city, I take one of our smaller vehicles. I used to live in a Los Angeles beach town (17 years ago) where parallel parking was common. I didn't have too much trouble parallel parking my extended cab F-150, though I didn't always get it right the first time. I have the short bed. The long beds are rare on GMC half ton crew cabs but are everywhere in the three quarter ton and up models. I have zero justification for a bigger truck, but they get spendy really quick, especially if you want creature comforts in them.

On the next week I am going to buy a used car. It's BMW 6 2012. But before I made an appointment with my VINZ mechanic. I want to make a full PPI 'cause I know not much about cars. It's better to spend $100 for inspection than $500 repairs.

As a former BMW owner (94 M3) I can say that $500 in repairs is a bargain.
