If you're a biker, you'd go with the cargo space of a minivan, plus you can sleep in it on impromtu overnights.

yes, no sh!t he's talking about the painted car on the van... like that hasn't been posted a billion times before, blah

Sportscar.

I've owned a few minivans and they are lethargic and exceedngly unfun to drive.

Tucked inside the car pictured here is a complete Foes Fly and a complete Turner 5Spot and associated riding gear and rackage to slam the bikes on the roof once the final destination has been reached.

So, I hate to be the one to point this out but I think the car is painted on the side of the van.

But just to play along with the rest, I'd go with the minivan. Way more practical, and the ladies love 'em.

this was not meant to start any debate...
anyway, everybody should drive something that is good on gas and can take a lot of bikes and passengers -> minivan

There is a bug shop in Portland that has a 911 painted on the side of a '72 bus. Same basic idea, only a little more relative.

because biking roadtrips are the best thing ever and I am yet to see a 911 with a bikerack that can fit all my friends... and I like the temperature no need for global warming, I'd sweat my a$$ off pushing my 47lbs tank up the hill

uh, it looks like a horribly disfigured lamborghini, or general fast-car scribblings of a middle schooler... i guess there's only so much you can do when faced with the constraint of a 140" wheelbase

So "all of your friends" fit inside a minivan?

I can only strive to be so popular as to have five friends...

close but not exactly... all my four DH riding buddys fit in a minivan
Ok, I get it now.

For you "all my friends" = "four DH riding buddys"

Thanks for clearing that up.
