No interest in the movie, but...

Cool car! I'd be happy with the batmobile as a trade-in on my Golf!! :o)

And my coworkers scoffed at my test driving a Hummer... (I don't want one, I just wanted to see what it was like to drive!).

*bwhahahaha*

MLW has wanted to test drive one of those things for ever. Me, I'm in the "smaller is nifty" category, and finally got rid of my MR2 when it just got too stupid because of all my spawn. (well, that and the water pump dying).

(as an aside, I'd like to actually chat with you some day when I'm not so tired that I act like a social zombie...)

Well, I didn't actually get to test drive it. I scored an invitation to the GM auto show earlier in the year and had convinced a coworker to go with me - the Friday beforehand we both decided we had way too much to do that weekend so didn't end up going.

For owning, yeah, smaller is better. I love having a car I can park in half the space most people need, and nearly spin on it's access for a U-turn.

I just REALLY like driving. :o)

i don't understand how you could even sit in an MR2, much less drive one... when i test-drove one out here, i found it way too cramped, and i'm a hell of a lot shorter than you!

Was it the newer version, or the old boxier one? Mine was the older boxier one, and I fit just fine. Loved it, even if I did have to have the seat _all_ the way against the fire wall, and the only reason my head fit was because the t-top glass gave me an extra inch and a half of head room.

But lot's of elbow room, and I loved it.

*misses car*.

Man Show Reference

[grail76.livejournal.com]

Back in the Adam Carolla/Jimmy Kimmel days of the Man show when they did the "Wheel of Destiny" they had an interesting prize.

Now my all time bad prize on WOD was "you have to call your mother and admit you masturbate."

The Good prize on WOD was Adam West would take you for a drive in the Batmobile.

MR-2

[sierra-victor.livejournal.com]

Agreed. I really like C. and mine's red 1991 MR-2, the last of that run of them.

No, it's not terribly practical--what two-seater sport car is?--but it certainly is fun to drive and we've got the Toyota RAV-4 for the practical day to day stuff.

Hummers ...

[grail76.livejournal.com]

and why the hell not (try one out)? Good for you!

*blink* of _course_they are! *blink*

but the batmobile pictured above does look a bit like a *very* short humvee...

(i once did give a male pal a tiny remote control humvee, with the note: "now i can truly say i gave you a hummer" *WEG*)

leave me the big trucks any day!!! whooooooo....
mmmm the rumble of deisel or straight pipes, yum yum yum....
i want a nice big brawny ford, jacked up a little... big tires...
and i'm gonna be the skinny bitch getting out of it!

an interesting story.... we were driving one day not far from our house and saw this really old truck that someone had totally redone, and it was soooo badass! i don't even remember what kind of truck it was or what year, but it was OLDDDDD... and across the back, custom painted was the word MISTRESS and painted through the words, was the picture of a woman lying on her side, very curvascious... it was SO HOT! i would kill to have a picture just with that truck. since then we saw it once more, and they had put the extra blower thing in the top of the hood, and it was just as sexy and hot as it was the first time we saw it.....
*wipes away the drool....*

but in reality, i LOVE our explorer. that truck can turn on a dime, just like your little cars can. i can do u-turns in regular neighborhood intersections. i can also parallel park it like a fiend. its nice and just big enough that i feel comfortable on the road. i HATE looking *under* other vehicles. that scares the crap out of me. and i have plenty of room for lots of shit and two dogs. i wouldn't trade our truck for anything. well.. maybe a bigger truck.... but you know....
