I lost all excitement of buying new cars after the 992. I was super stoked to find this at 74k miles

Most days i'm driving this beast, once the kids get old enough and don't want to go camping I'm selling the fifthwheel and getting a much smaller pickup like the new Tacoma or equivalent.

i usually drive the 911, it is why i bought it ... but when the snow gets above 5" i will take the 4-runner that just turned 300K miles and is ready to go another 100K. i was able to take the 911 to work last week after a nice snowfall and freezing temps and it was awesome. people that think or are afraid to daily these cars you should give it a re-think. you don't see many 911s driving around in the snow but they are so capable with the proper tires.

i drive about 75 miles a day so my 2022 911 has about 9K miles on it. the only thing that would be better is a TTS or GT3 Touring, which i am working on.

my wife has a 2022 cayenne coupe that she absolutely loves.

porsche, irrespective of the model really does make the finest automobiles. we were over at a friends place for Thanksgiving who happens to be a big collector in my area and was able to drive a 3.0L, 3.2 G-bodys and a 993 4S (which i think is one of the most beautiful cars ever designed). anyway, even back then (as most of you know) porsche just had it spot on with the seating position, the throttle response, the feel of the shifter, the goldilocks performance of each generation / model, driver feedback, the near perfect of placement of instruments you use regularly on the dashboard, and then of course the sounds they make ... there is just nothing better.

we are all very lucky to be owners of these cars, very lucky indeed. happy holidays to all!

we just got 6" or so. the cold weather with snow packed roads was oh so fun for a couple days.

interestingly enougher, i had to leave our suv at the bottom of the last hill because it didn't have snow tires yet and couldn't make it to the house.

Mazda CX-30 Turbo AWD. Good looking. Great stereo with 3 subwoofers. 320ft/lbs torque. Elegant interior. Versatile. Small and nimble.

I’m comfortable with my wealth. Luxury badges mean nothing to me.

One of the nice things about having done well in business is being able to walk out in the garage in the morning and have a choice, based on weather, or what I want to do on a given day. Or, perhaps its a bit of a curse to. have a car thing obsession. My wife has a Macan S, which I don't drive because I have to adjust the mirrors and seats which she doesn't like to reset. Soooo that leaves me with....all of these.

What gets the most miles? The Ford Ranger....such irony.
