I just pulled the trigger on a pretty lux 2017 Kia Sorento so that my kids can be more comfortable and have room for their book bags, musical instruments and friends as they grow up. Doesn’t hurt that I’ve never been more comfy in a car in my life. We wanted to know about your ‘dad ride’ so we tossed out the question, “What’s your dad car and do you like it?” Here’s what you fellas are driving these days:
TJ Dunn: My “Dad car” I love it, kids love it even more. The car number is because my son is the fifth, I am the forth and my father (my codriver) is the third.
Matthew Nerlfi: My dad ride. 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 XPress. Sweet truck. Clean inside and out. Crew cab to get that baby in & out of the car seat lickity split. Plenty of room up front for momma and her purse. Sounds good, gets up when it needs to. Practical for Alaska! My baby falls asleep listening to the Hemi on long coastal drives.

Mathew Zapata: My “Dad Car”. My first car, and hopefully my son’s first car too. I think it will be so cool to give him the car that he took his first ride in going home from the hospital. It’s our project, I’m restoring it and all he has to do is watch his dad work on it and hand me tools. That’s how I learned.
Mickey Akins: My daughter will do nothing but cry and scream in my wife’s car. But as soon as she’s in the mini, she’s all “WEEEE!!!”. And yes, her and i both love this car. Not the best for grocery trips though.
Douglas A. Campbell: First time I have ever posted a pic of my “Dad Ride” on Social Media/Internet. Fabulous gas mileage, one of the safest vehicles on the road and still has a little get up and go when needed!
Erika Nicole Montez: My hubs drives a ford explorer. We have 4 kids and 3 dogs, so need the space. We always buy used. Kids destroy stuff and it isn’t any better now that they are tweens/teens.
Rob Laycock: 2015 Ford Fiesta Zetec TDCi, first Ford I have ever had in 24 years of driving and I love it. Done 25000 miles in 9 months and they have been a scream! Ex wife got the big family wagon (Volvo V70) but this swallows what my 3 boys and I need and we just throw a roof box on if we need anything else!! You can also turn the front airbag off so the 4 year old an sit in the front!! And here in the UK, with our gas prices, the fact it averages 56mpg helps (and I drive it hard at times!!)
Jonathan Barker: 2002 Honda Civic. Currently sitting because of a misfire. Has 225k miles. I’ve owned it since my birthday in 2009 when it had 99k miles. It’s seen every inch of the 15 and every mile of the 80 from San Fransisco to Omaha. It’s the only car my wife had known me in but she wants to get rid of it because of the misfire and the bad catalytic converter. I just can’t bring myself to do it.
Kris Grier: 2004 Mazda6 wagon, V6 and a manual transmission. Lots of cargo room, decent stereo, and a back seat big enough for a rear-facing child seat. It’s nice, but more importantly, it was cheap enough that I was able to keep my Miata.
Anthony Cordero: My dad mobile (*Pictured at the top of this post), not the best car for car seats!
