This is the only picture of my daily driver that I can find. The Subaru in the background is my dd. The Suzuki TC90 "Card Shark" is just for fun.

My " summer pickup truck" is my '98 GL 1500. I start riding in March, usually, when the ice is off the roads, and there's been some rain to wash the salt off, and continue till generally the last of November.
The trip to work is approx 55 miles round trip, and unless its really bad, this is what's parked in front of the store. Wife and I usually vacation on it, pulling a Bushtec trailer and camping most of the time. Wife and I have put 40K miles on this since buying it several years ago. You may note that I have "darksided" it: the rear tire is a Federal Forenza 175/60-16. I will probably "double darkside" it this year ( rear M/C tire on front.) Otherwise its an '05 Ranger 4wd pickup truck.

Since the Wife picked up her new Saturn Sky she has decided it doesn't get driven in nasty weather, therefore it lives in my one and a half car garage with four motorcycles. Everything has about four inches of play one way or the other to fit. Since we needed a knock around/grocery getter/Grand baby transporter, I picked up this old 96 Jeep Cherokee with the low mileage of 135k. It has an actual ashtray and cassette tape player. If it gets a shopping cart ding, it just adds more character.

PS both of the above bikes were basket cases when I got them, the vespa was in a raspberry bush missing just about everything and the Duc was part of a "barn find" of 7 singles all in boxes.
