If you derive your sense of manhood from the vehicle you drive, you need to do more with your life.

Material things don't make me a man, actions do. I'll drive whatever pleases me and to hell with what a random nobody thinks.
I have had tons of toy cars and trucks and plenty of beaters, v8s v6s turbo 4's it doesn't matter. |

Pretty sure the man makes the car, not
The car makes the man To each, their own. I don’t have to satisfy my ego Besides, you are not my boss That cover everything?? |

While not an absolute requirement of a manly vehicle, a general necessity of a manly vehicle is the ability to haul a full sheet of plywood.

Probably being too serious in this parody thread but the "manly" thing to do is get the vehicle that does the task at hand the best.
For example, if your vehicular needs are a 70 mile-a-day commute, don't buy a Suburban (which is the most ironic car name ever, BTW). |

I left work early today to pick up my boy from school. He needed to be talked to about being disrespectful to his mother last night when I was at my friends watching the game. Then showed him how to cook up some chicken thighs and made a special dinner for his mom. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Any of the early year Ford Bronco's 68-76, jeep before 78 and the same for FJ cruisers. If you own one of these you better know how to turn a wrench. Good thing is they are all fairly easy to wrench on. I rebuilt a 74 bronco from the ground up and all I need was a standard set of wrenches and sockets and some screwdrivers.

Toughest man I ever knew, Vietnam Vet, Green Beret. Drove an old Volvo station wagon. Did not give two shits about a “manly” vehicle.

Old vehicles kept running with parts from the salvage yard in order to send the kids to college.

One that’s paid for. LOL at the chumps that are heavily financed on their vehicles.

Anything with a manual in it.
Automatic transmissions are vehicular cuckoldry. |

I drive a Prius every day.
I also have an F450 King Ranch and a Benz GLS 450 in the garage. A vehicle doesn't make a dude a man. The choices he makes, how he acts and treats others defines that. |

An admirable upgrade over the Scooty-Puff Jr., truly the chariot of a man's man's man.
