Which do I want to drive? Do I want torque and loud noises, or do I want a decent A/C? Do I want auto or manual? Big subwoofers or big subwoofer? Armrest or no armrest? Vibration at 65mph or... ok, both of my cars do that (it pisses me off).
So how about you, oppo? Any amusing choices you have to make when you walk out to your garage?
Also, wow. Old picture is old.

I cannot even begin to share the amount of oddball choices I have had to make in what I am driving that day. Probably one of the weirder driveways I have curated

I usually go by which one is parked at the end of the driveway. That usually coincides well with which one is actually functional.

The only thing I prefer about the other “option” in my garage is that it sits higher up and feels bigger. Sometimes I like to unleash my inner soccer mom.

Made choice by selling the one on the left since I rarely drove it after buying the one on the right.
Ninjaedit- the Mustang was a 5.0, I swapped the GT "gas cap" badge for the pony badge.

Which pair of shoes do I put on for my walk because my car is thousands of miles away : (

I experienced this when I simultaneously owned a 2007 Grand Marquis and a 2014 Nissan
Versa for a few months. Do I want 40 mpg, stick shift, bare bones (2 speaker sound system), or 20 mpg, automatic, plush as a hundred rolls of Charmin? I only put 3,000 miles on the Versa by the time I sold it so you can probably guess which one I chose most of the time

I thought the Jeep was a Bronco II for a second. Then your driveway would be REALLY weird. I like the El Camino!

If I told you it was a diesel Land Cruiser, and that was a Ranchero GT, does that make it any better? :D

We have a five-vehicle household. He has a daily driver and a restored 80s muscle car. I have the jeep for heavy rain/winter/hauling bike or dog, bike for good mileage and fun, and Camaro for summer driving. Probably going to add a dedicated track bike, a better winter/tow vehicle ASAP, and a project car once we get more garage space.

The boat. Drive the boat.

Whaaaaaaat? Yes, that would make it fantastic. Because most people will pay you to take their Bronco II away from them.
Hell, I thought the Audi was a Buick Roadmaster! And a Ford Ranchero? Dude, you really got the weirdness going on in that driveway. The cool kind of weirdness.

haha odd enough this was almost a whole year later. And yeah there was a Roadmaster in there!

Do I want to go fast in a straight line, or around corners? Also, if it snows, which coffin do I prefer?

Do I want sunshine, fun, good mileage? Go with my 95 Miata.
Do I want torque, speed, and convenience? Go with my 07 Mazdaspeed 3.

I’ve always had multiple cars, cuz they serve different purposes. Right now I only have two cars; a MT Porsche Cayman for everyday fun driving, and a DSG Jetta TDI when I need more than two seats or a lot more room to pick stuff up (hello, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Costco). Traffic also dictates what I drive, if I know I’m heading out to some gnarly traffic I take the TDI cuz getting on/off a clutch for hours can be very tedious and the DSG in my Jetta is just easier.

When I’m home I get to choose between my 2010 Jeep Wrangler (manual, good enough AC, option to be topless, bigish and low) or my mom’s JCW Mini Cooper S (manual, basically no AC, option to get speeding tickets, very small, torque steer). I honestly think my mom likes my Jeep as much as I do, and I love the Mini, so we trade all the time.
One day, when the BMW is actually drivable, I’ll also be able to have the option of driving my 2002 (manual, no AC, no radio, no power anything, sunroof, loud, fun as all hell, option to hang out in front of the gas pump and talk to car people).
I used to have the option between my xTerra, the Mini, the BMW, my AMC Rambler Classic, and my Lincoln Continental Mark VI. The BMW or the Rambler won out on most days I didn’t have to actually get to my destination, just because they were fun and made a bunch of people smile. The Lincoln never won because it was a piece of shit, but it was free so I can’t complain.

I have two cars at my disposal technically, but ones the M3 and the other is the Safari. You can guess which one I’m driving 95% of the time. Maybe if it’s snowing its ass off I’ll take the Safari.

Whichever coffin you’d look the coolest buried in.

I own four vehicles currently but only two are insured. So its either the top down and handling of the Miata or the turbo and BOV noises along with acceleration of the Talon

20-year-old pickup truck with a cherry bomb muffler (previous owner’s wonderful idea) or little red Mazda3 with MazdaSpeed exhaust (my idea).
I try not to drive the truck a whole lot, since it is so old and I’m afraid lots of driving will just break it. It’s more of a spare/use-it-as-we-need-it type vehicle. Plus, the stereo sucks (two out of four speakers don’t work). It will see more driving during the winter, when the four-wheel-drive will come in handy for snows. But for now, Mazda sees daily driving duties.
