Do you think the model car or motorcycle you drive represents your personality?

Does the make, model, color, year of your current vehicle (car, truck, suv or motorcycle) represent who you are? If not, what vehicle would?

Yes absolutely. I drive a 2014 Ram 2500 Crew Cab with a Cummins. It fits me quite well but it hasn't been personalized much yet...Over time, I'll really make it "me"

Yes, SPC Randy Torgerson, I'm a Honda and a Volkswagen guy. Inexpensive, reliable, far from flashy. That's me reflected in a car.

I drive an '08 Chevy Silverado. It's dark red (Roll Tide Red). It's dependable and growls alot. Yeah, that's me!

God, I hope not. I drive a Fiat 500, and I'm 6' 1" plus I'm not at my fighting weight by any means. 42 mpg and 86 miles round trip to work is the only reason.

Not at all. I drive a Chevy Cruze. It's great on gas.... Especially here in DC. If I were stationed where I didn't sit in traffic for two hours, I'd probably drive some form of large truck. Napoleon complex :)

I drive a Saab 9-5 Turbo with 150,000+ miles on it. I'd say that about sums me up. I have to get something else and I just cannot find anything else that "fits."

Yes, definitely. It's a 2005 Volvo XC70.

"Do you think the model car or motorcycle you drive represents your personality?"

I think so. My passion for cars is my alter ego. Most people that know me know I've always had several cars at any given time. Even as a single E-4 I had a classic, a cruiser and a utility(hauling) vehicle.
I'm an eccentric introvert, but my alter ego comes out when I drive. It's one way of expressing mself without having to say anything. I try to stay humble, we all started from the bottom. This is where I let go. My daily shifts between a 1997 Dodge Viper GTS or 2005 Porsche 911 depending on my mood.
Catch me on base in the Viper, if I'm not pressed for time ask to drive it, I'll pass you the keys.

2013 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 on the weekdays (company pays for it) and a 2003 Dodge Ram 4x4 on the weekends for kicking around. I think I was maybe 19 last time I owned a 2 wheel drive, so I'd say my vehicle stays pretty true to my style.

My Hyundai Elantra is a great car but definitely not my personality. This would be more my personality:

I think it either represents your personality or the personality you would like to have. Some people drive big trucks or sports cars because that is who they are and others drive them because that's who they wish they were.
