    yeah they shorted you a wheel, a roof, trunk and some seats on that one

    Looks like a blast, don't really see it picking up grocery getting or parts running duties though... unless you break something small.

    A coworker of mine mentioned he was going to get one of those once he paid off his truck.

    Is that one a touring?

    To each his own... Out of the 3 cars we had, the wife would only drive one. Both the Caliber and SC were bidding for garage space,
    since my SC has been with me since I drove her off the lot new back in '83 , she wasn't going anywhere. The wife and I spend alot more time together on the Spyder, than we ever did with the cars, so it was logical.

    That's why we replaced the Cali with a pickup. I've never been one for trucks, but Home Depot runs in the cali were miserable.

    It's the touring with the Audio and Convenience package.

    I would certainly get one of those before a Smart Car or a Fiat 500.

    I think they are kinda cool.

    Smart car, or Fiat 500 gets better gas mileage.... Good thing I didn't get it to save money.

    Better mileage, maybe. But the downside is you're driving a Smart or a 500.

    I can definitely see how this makes sense. When you've already got a family car, a truck, and a lightweight turbo toy, there's no point ALSO having a caliber srt4 that doesnt do any of those things particularly well. And i think the Can Am looks better...

    Looks like you got your vehicle types pretty well covered.

    Dont push the red button.You hear me?

    I actually traded the Caliber for the Ranger... Home Depot runs in the Caliber can get entertaining..
