Here is my Buell which is what I ride everyday. If I'm not going to school and its freezing or raining I drive my cage. If I'm going to school I ride in any weather.

Its an 05 Jaguar S type R. Its got a Mafioso intake, cross drilled and slotted rotors, red painted Brembos, 1.5lb pulley, and 20% tint. Have the axle back section of an exhaust just havent had the time to get it welded on. Its my other toy.
 
Take some money you pour into you BA car and pour some into your BA bike! Get that thing some bling and an exhaust! [up]
 
LOL I actually like the bike how it sits. It has a gutted muffler. I like the stock look of the muffler but it is louder. About the only other thing I want to do to the bike is a front pulley cover so you can see it, painting the seat rails this winter, and a K&N. The previous owner said it had one but it doesnt look like it. Its got Crossroad handlebars, tail chop, bar ends, axle sliders, and guards removed. I dont want to mess with the reliability to much since it is my daily driver.
 
My daily driver now is a 2005 Dodge Dakota 4x4 ( looks like a 2 wheel drive though) i just picked up a couple months ago. Had to retire my 23 and 16 year old Volvos for something a liitle more useful. :)

My daily driver is a 06 civic ex. All stock except window tint and si wheels. If its bad weather or I need to haul something I use my 91 GMC 4x4. I couldn't find a good pic of it by itself, but its in the background of two of my pics. If the weather is great, I drive my first car, my 1972 Porsche 914. I got it when I was a jr in high school. I've got it pretty much fully restored, but like every toy, you're never done! Since I'm new to the forum, I also included a pic of my 07 xb9. Due to some engine troubles...big troubles, it now has an 08 xb12 engine in it.

BTW I own nothing but Dodges and of course my Buell.

EDIT:Both trucks have over 180k on them.
 
I don't have any pictures yet because its a somewhat plain car but picked up a 2002 VW Jetta TDi about 2 months ago. Im averaging about 650 miles to a 14 gallon tank, averages out to about 45mpg. Last fill up I started to blend in about 2 gallons of clean filtered used vegitable oil and am at almost 600 miles with a little less than a 1/4 tank left. Now im getting about the same Mpg that the XB has:D
 
I have a 1988 RX-7 GTU. It's the 1st year GTU, so it's not the crappy base 1989 model.

It's pretty much a turbo car without the turbo. Turbo gearing, turbo suspension, LSD, etc. There are no luxuries on the car except a sunroof, for weight savings. This first year GTU was a commemorative to the racing version. If only they'd put a turbo in it.

Anyways, the stock 13B finally went kaput after 200k miles. I've got two spares that I'm rebuilding into one. It's also getting a nice porting job. Hope to have it back on the road soon.

No pics right now.

I thought that nobody drove diesels over there, guess I was wrong, haha! Is it the 1.9 turbo diesel? Diesel rules this earth when it comes to fuel economy, even better than hybrids some times. And torquey too!

Are you really mixing fuell and oil together? This might be bad for the engine, especially if there is a particle collector "catalyst" on the car. Are you sure the oil mixes with the gas and does not go to the top of the tank, so that after a while you'll have only used vegetable oil in there?
