Ask Lemmy

I wish I didn't need to drive

What I drive: None

What I want to drive: a Car-free walkable city

people don't realise how much better the world would be if we had no cars in cities. You think you do, but you don't.

What I drive: Ford Fiesta (i don't remember the year)

What I want to drive: The Millennium Falcon

I drive a car with an internal combustion engine.

I'd prefer to drive a plug-in hybrid, so I could produce slightly less greenhouse gas.

But I'd really prefer a walkable neighbourhood with reliable rapid transit. Maybe car sharing for trips.

Driving: A kia picanto

Want to drive: An electric vehicle with cargospace enough for four goats or a 1kubic meter liquid container

Have: a stage 2 '05 Impreza WRX STi in moderately good repair.

Want: a stage 2 '05 Impreza WRX STi in good repair with an ethanol sensor and new tune to enable selectively running E85.

Volvo XC90 T8. I don't want any other car; It's great under scandinavian winter conditions, my entire family fits, and it's genuinely a nice car without being too flashy.

Yoooo ... Finally a thread about cars ...

I drive a Manual 2019 Mustang GT convertible I bought of the auction and rebuilt in my apartment ... It was tough to find a car in the height of Covid and I had very little wiggle room since I ended up putting a piston thru the block in my 2016 Genesis Coupe ...

And this is the Genny I killed, she had over 120 miles and I was very lazy with maintenance ... not that their build quality is the best to begin with

Toyota RAV4, and maybe a slightly nicer Toyota. Because I've been a Toyota stan since high school. Those dudes know how to make a fine machine.

I drive a Golf 4 with a check engine light and I wish I drove one without a check engine light

Tomorrow it's going to the electrician and it would better come back fixed!!!

I drive an old Toyota, wish I could convert it to EV

Have: PHEV Crossover with enough ev range to get me 99% of the places I need

Want: public transit for 98% of my travel, and a cheap sports car like a miata for the weekends or any long trips I might take

1993 Miata. I would prefer a late 90s RX7 but for reliability reasons I do already have my dream car.

Currently an old Corsa D. Which is a great car, honestly. It has already gone 210.000km. So it will not last forever and I would like to have an electric car afterwards.

I drive a Subaru Forester (2017). I wish I drove a newer or less beat up Subaru Forester.

2020 Honda Fit. Love the thing, it serves its purpose and punches above its size. It handles a Canadian winter fine and fits 4 people plus a bench. I fill the tank about once a month.

My dream would be an electric Honda Fit or Mini Cooper

I primarily walk/use public transport but do need a car on occasion

I drive a Ford Ranger and it is the vehicle I want to drive.

Currently driving: Subaru Outback, Miata

Wish I drove: Subaru Outback, Miata

I'm with the bike folks, since I ride most places. For the places I need a vehicle, I wish that kei cars were (highway) legal here. The Shuttle LS vans that run around campus are so cute!

Currently driving: no car

Car I wish I had: not applicable

What I drive: 2009 Audi A3

What I want to drive: cheap Chinese EV

I don’t drive often so a huge 50,000 USD loan for some gigantic EV is just not in the cards.

I have a Mirage G4. It has a five speed transmission. It does not have internet connectivity, it doesn't have a touchscreen, it doesn't have keyless ignition, it doesn't even have a fourth cylinder. It's as reliable as a hammer, it still gets me over 40 mpg, and it's paid for.

Dream vehicle? Any motorcycle. I have one, and I ride it sometimes, but I have a family that cares I'm alive and a lot of you seem to need a phone in your face to drive a car...

my friends old toyota 1-ton pickup! i don't really "drive" it per se (i don't even have a drivers license hehe), but i do occasionally operate it myself to tug/tow heavy stuff around very short distances. honestly haven't even touched any higher gears than second.

a purchase of an old 80s subaru wagon may be in the works however, but only time will tell :)

An aging one.

The one I wish I did is none at all. I would love to just be able to have a car pick me up and take me where I want to go that was shared with everyone else in town and driverless. I don't really want to own a car at all.

A Chevy Bolt (2017). I wish I didn't have to drive, but the Bolt is a nicer experience than my much older Honda Accord (2006).

I inherited a Suzuki Ignis from my mother in law. Weird little car but it gets me from A to B. I don't care what car I drive.

I ride a road bike, and I wish I rode a hybrid bike with a rear rack and panniers.

I drive a Toyota Yaris Hybrid. I don't care enough about cars to wish for anything else.

2019 Camry Hybrid XLE

I don't wish to drive a car any longer. I'm done with them. They are a stupid form of transport in their current form. They should be used for local traffic only and all electric. City to City should be trains.

i drive a6 allroad 3.0 tfsi, but with gas prices skyrocketing again i wish i drove a suzuki x-90

Toyota Camry, and I'd be content if I drove it till I'm dead.

I drive a 2016 Raleigh Sport with a milk crate attached to the rear rack with zip ties. I WISH I drove a 2026 A.B. E-Cargo with an EP6 motor but those are about 5k and they're not sold locally so...

2014 Subaru Impreza outback

What I want to drive is a hatch back Subaru WRX but they don't make them anymore.

Guessing my next car will be either a Forester or STI.
