What car do you drive?

Sign in to disble this ad
I can't help noticing whenever I'm browsing the amps forum that one of the most important qualities of a cabinet is whether it fits in the boot of the car. It seems as though every bass player has got a 1988 Honda Civic.
Therefore I'd like to know which cars all of you drive.


(ow yeah: Has the opposite ever occurred? I.e. Has your rig ever determined the choice of your car? )

I drive a '97 Dodge Dakota Sport, and yes I made sure my rig fit in it before I bought it.

1985 Ford ranger long bed with V6. Bit of rust, but it's very very good for hauling gear. I use it for work, play, and daily driver. It's the official gig mobile. I have a topper as well if we are traveliing, and need some rain cover.

2004 Subaru WRX wagon

But then again, I don't gig, so it technically isn't my gigmobile. :P

Then, without saying a word, I ease my hands down the length of her body, and slowly remove her G string...

I drive a 1993 Nissan 240SX fastback. It's a squeeze, but everything fits on the extremely rare occasions that I take any of my equipment out of my house.

Love my Suby - mine is an 02 WRX Sedan.
My combo just barely fits in the back seat. But usually drive my wife's Acura MDX to gigs.

I got me a big ol Chevy Tahoe. I wish it got Honda Civic gas mileage. I could fit my rig three times if I had to and I use an 8x10 cab.

Sweet bus. If I had more room in my driveway I would have one of those.
