Mine is a 2024 Honda Ridgeline. Love the swing open tailgate and waterproof trunk.

I have two 2002 Toyota Tundras.One is a 4x2 that has 215k miles now. I bought it new.The other is a 4x4 that has 155k miles now,that I bought five years ago for 6k cash that had 143k miles on it.Both are 4.7L V-8's.I hope between the two I will get many more years of dependable service.I don't drive but about 6k miles a year anyway,so they should.Every time I drive either one,I can't believe I'm driving a 23yr old truck.Everything works,they drive good,ride good and are not beat up and junky like you would expect a truck of that age to be.

Those are really nice looking but why 2 trucks for only 6k miles a year?

Yes, and it has a drain plug so it can be loaded with ice and used as a cooler as well. Then drained. It is also locking for security. I love it.

We have always had trucks, Super Dutys and here recently a 2021 F250 Tremor and a 2019 Jeep Rubicon Wrangler, we don't drive much so we traded both for a 2025 Bronco Raptor, Couldn't be happier, easy to get in and out of, plenty of power and a very smooth ride while being very off road capable should the need arise.
Well at 68yrs old now,my first truck has given me over 200k miles of dependable service.So when I found the other truck of the same year model and motor with only 143k miles,I figured between the two they might just last me for the rest of my life.Not having a vehicle payment for 17yrs = money in the bank for other things too.The other thing is,with one vehicle,if something happened and I had to buy another,I didn't want to be rushed into buying something I may not really want.2002 was the last year the motor and transmissions were made in Japan and it's also the same motor used in the Lexus.These first generation trucks really hold great resale value and in less than two years,mine will be classics.So if they remain in good running shape,their value may even go up more.
'05 Jeep Wrangler soft top. Always wanted one, found a deal from a buddy of mine. Now I've had my fill and I'm wanting to get something else. It's great for checking fields (I farm) but not worth a darn for a road trip. It's noisy, hot in summer and barely warm enough in winter, drives like crap on a worn road and sucks on gas mileage.

2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness edition. I am a solid Subaru fan and this is our 4th or 5th.
We spend a few hundred miles a year on Texas beaches and the AWD makes it easy. Plus North Texas does get icy and I have to be at the hospital during cold weather conditions to react to any f'ups that threaten patient care and building integrity.
I tell folks to laugh away at my man wagon but it is the best tool in the toolbox for what I need. I have a 2002 Chevy 2500 for towing or running over stuff.

2003 F-150 six banger, but it's getting time for something else. Don't really want another pickup. Four previous vehicles were mini-vans, and kind of want another one as I drive all day for my work, but have also been considering the current crop of crossovers, am scared of the hybrids, because of the battery cost and limited life, as I usually drive a vehicle till the wheels fall off. 250,000 or more, and Toyota stopped making a gas only Sienna in 2020.

F250 with a leveling kit and power steps so this old fart can climb up in it. If I didn't have to move my farm tractor several times a year it would be an F150 for the better ride and the better MPG. I don't drive it much, we drive my wife's Teluride on the weekends and unless it's food plotting or hunting season I'm generally at home.

Wife or car?? JokingMine is a 2013 half-ton GMC pickup, and my wife has a 2020 Buick Enclave. The weekend fun car is a 2002 Lexus SC430 hardtop convertible. She's a Ft. Worth 8, looks good from a distance until you get close enough to see the war paint and scars.

Yes it is but so is the Stinger. Both get very decent mileage but surprisingly, the Blackwing does better!
