Brand loyal or just like a good vehicle?
I am basically a Mopar guy with a few deviations over the years (last 10 years). In late 2013, after a guy high on meth ran a red light and totaled my 2000 Durango, I bought a fun little car to drive. A 2000 Miata. Good gas mileage (20 in town, 30 on the highway) and great handling. We rebuilt the Durango and sold the Miata shortly after that. Next non-Mopar was supposed to be my wife's daily driver, but things happened and it was mine. That was 2004 BMW 330Ci convertible with sport suspension. Also a fun car to drive, but the extra weight over the Miata could be felt. We replaced the BMW with only the second practical car I've ever bought. Also happens to be only the second new car I've ever bought. That is a 2020 Hyundai Elantra ECO (1.4L turbo) that average 44-45 on the highway. We haven't had one of the old cars on the road in many years due to lots of life getting in the way, but I see light at the end of the tunnel and will be back on the Barracuda convertible within a couple of weeks. Then back on the GTS convertible...I haven't felt the need to take any pics of the Hyundai, but I might some day.
