In the context of "Gear for Guys" which I started with some cool boatshoes awhile back and then followed up with a gentleman's knife, I've decided to move to the vehicle that a man needs.
A man needs a car. It gets you from place to place, and it brings all your gear with you. I've picked this particular vehicle for the Southern Man who needs a vehicle that he can put his gear in, go anywhere, take his dog with him (and not worry about the upholstery), and it also looks great. Answer below the jump.
It's not going to win any drag races from stoplight to stoplight around town, but a Southern Man is not in that much of a hurry, and he doesn't need to show off.
It will get you and a few hunting buddies out to the perfect dove field, and there will be plenty of room for gear.
And the rear seats fold up and down for extra storage when it's just you and your dog.
Look, it's not ergonomic. It was built before "ergonomic" was a word. It's handles like a blacksmith's anvil, but we're not looking for a car built to run 24 hours at Le Mans, here. It has hard lines and sharp corners. It's not a smooth ride on the interstate, so don't think you're going to drive it for six hours at a time. But the coolness makes it all worth it.
It's the ultimate guy car for the weekends when you want to get away.
