I don't know if there are any women on this forum...
We're men! We like guns and cars/trucks! What are you guys driving to the range?

Recently sold my Jeep and got this 96 F150. Had enough left for a Para GI and ammo. Good trade.

Go MiniVans! I have one for winter roads. Can't beat the space. My Suburban is WAY more fun, but my Caravan is WAY more practical!
Great Truck Slanteyedshootist!
Thanks bgreen!

I drive e a Saturn Ion coupe ( plastic panels and half suicide doors for the rear )
I treat it like an appliance ... but I'm pretty proud of the time I moved a freezer in a compact economy car, and I've managed to move some impressively large cargo in that little car.
For enjoyable transport I've taken up motorcycleing, I ride a Honda vtx1800.
MrsBFD drives a beat-up Saturn sl2 and rides a Honda Shadow.

BFD, back in my younger days, I did a lot of motorcycle riding. Never cared for the big cruise bikes. Was a Yamaha service tech and always had a demo to ride plus my own bikes. Really loved the crotch rockets though, my favorite was probably cafe racer that I built from a 1973 RD350 2 stroke bike. Engine and chassis were altered and it had silenced chambers and my own mods to the cylinders and intake and it was FAAAAAST and very quick. A real fun ride, had a 125 Penton and an MX125 Yamaha to ride in the dirt, both altered by myself and real fun rides. The Venture Royales of the era were a great street ride for a big bike and really fun to ride once you got them past 5K's, The FJ1100's were also another great fun ride.
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.

I have a 2005 Scion xB. They're made by Toyota. It looks like this one:

except mine is black with red wheel covers. Looks kind of like a toaster with wheels. Mine has 4 inch diameter Ruger and Beretta logos on lower corners of rear glass. 30 mpg around town, 38 highway is best thing about it. I love it, only have 49k miles so far, I'll drive it until the wheels fall off!

Speaking of drive, watch what these soldiers in Nova Scotia do with a WW2 era Willys jeep. It's a youtube link I got from the Ruger Forum.

Gas prices have gotten me past that whole "macho vehicle" thing, but the road into my favorite shooting spot is NASTY, so I take Kermit T. Truck.
Otherwise, I'd be driving my '03 Tie-yoda Cruller.
An empty weapon is just a very expensive hammer.

Nice rides. I especially like the his and hers Mustangs.
Lately I've been sticking to the '89 Camry or the '93 Ranger for range trips.
