What makes me laugh is when I see someone carting around a 5-year-old and an 8-year-old in an Excursion with no trailer hitch. If you're not using the truck to tow, then why not drive something that actually drives like a car?
Yes it is. But I can't have everything I want so I tend to use it as my 2nd car. Otherwise I'd have to have yet another vehicle to manage. In the summer, I use my Vette because I like to play with it.

I don't know about that. Me, I prefer to drive the car if I can help it. More responsive and more fun around the bends. Even the wife's E300 is more fun. With the Ex, I have to be more careful when going 65 around the bends. With the E300, I can take it to 85, not saying I do but I can, in theory. However, being that the Ex is a 2nd car, the wife has her E300 so sometimes if I need something from the store, I have to jump in the Ex.
