Not sure, a 1908 Oldsmobile ? 1928 Brewster body Rolls, Stutz Bobcat, 69 Dodge Hemi Charger, 200 ton Electrahaul rock truck, D10 Cat dozer. I have driven many cool things in my life, but for the sheer impact at the time it was probably a Farmall Super A when I was about 10 years old. Grin stayed on face for days, it was my first tractor driving experience.

Boring life.

(Edit.....now that I think about it, this is pretty cool, because I love to build all my own structures /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif)

A Lotus Europa..... felt like my tail was draggin'. We stopped at a red light and an 18-wheeler pulled up behind us. Looked out the rear-view and was looking at the underside of his bumper. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

707-320B, also known as E-3C Sentry AWACS. I was returning from my last trip to Riyadh before I retired and got to "drive" from somewhere over Ohio to just around St. Luios, and included cruise at FL330 thru descent to 15,000 feet for our approach to Tinker AFB. It was especially cool because I was not a pilot in the military, I spent my career fixing the planes. Although I do have a private pilot license. Chet

I drove a herd of cattle through the Arizona desert one spring.
I drove a school of fish into a net by swimming with them (no, I didn't swim into the net too).
As for vehicles, I would say an Avanti Convertible, its not the fastest thing I've driven, nor is it the most responsive, but with only a handful of them ever built, it sure is unusual. And every time I drive the car it sure makes me smile.
