When I finally become pregnant we have decided to get a Ford Raptor. Technically it won't be a MOM-mobile (my car is a work perk), but it will be the FAMily car driven by DH. The truck is pretty bad ass. The two-tone interior matches his Camaro.
Share a photo of a your car (stock or real)!

Wow, that does look pretty bad ass!
My mom of 2 car. It's the sports package so I can still feel a little cool.

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: @rachiecakes: I'm cracking up because your cars are polar opposites 
I have a trailblazer, I love the car...just not the gas mileage now that I have a commute to work!

@evansjamie: love the Versa!
I've always owned small VW convertibles, always stick shift. The Prius was a step in the mom direction for me, haha
But it's the city version and ecofriendly so it still satisfies that side of me

I drive a 2008 Colorado - it was the first vehicle we ever bought new. Here it is back when we bought it, we've since added chrome step bars and a 3 fold tonneau cover.
We live in central Canada, and outside a city so I needed 4x4.

Well, LO is still baking, but I already have a total mommy-mobile and I love it! A new Mazda 5 "sport wagon"

This is my car, car seat needs to go in soon! We also have a Mazda 3, but DH usually drives that one! Mine is a Kia Sorento.

@abbydabbydoodlebug: tell me about your Mazda 5. We're considering one, but it looks kind of cramped, from the outside. We haven't made it to a dealership to try it out, though.

@rachiecakes: how is your Prius in the snow?
I have a Honda CRV in dark gray.

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: the picture isn't mine but I drive a dark green Subaru outback limited. It's a hand me down from my mom. I'm very lucky to have a free car and no car payment. DH has a 1998 jeep grand Cherokee - the kind recently recalled, ugh!

@allison: Well, I really liked it because it is smaller than a full size mini van. It's really a mini minivan. We were able to fit 6 adults in it and everyone was comfortable enough. The short legged people went in the third row. 
For my every day needs of toting around my 2 nieces or my DH and I and our dog, it's been perfect. It's super zippy and handles really well. It's a really smooth ride. The mpg is really good too! We mostly leave the third row folded down for grocery shopping and stuff. We have just used the 3rd row for when we visit family and we want to take 1 car to go out to eat instead of 2. None of us has kids yet though, so I can't say how people will fit when a car seat is involved. I really love it though and the price is so great compared to other vehicles with 3 rows.

I drive a Volvo Station wagon. I bugged DH for it and love it...he hates it and is ready to be done with it. Not my picture...I just googled for it, so not my jersey plate, either! It is the right color, though.
He's got a GMC Sierra, but he's selling it for a little 4 cylinder car.

I have a white Chrysler Pacifica. I'm obsessed with the amount of space. With a baby + five nieces & nephews, the third row really comes in handy! Plus, tons of room for groceries, strollers, and all of my junk.
(this one isn't mine -it's just a Google find- but mine looks just like this)

09 Honda Accord. I want something bigger and will before we start TTC for #2.

We have a new Hyundai Santa Fe! I love this car! Here she is when we first got her and when we went camping and took her along the beach 
Just fitted the carseat the other day ready for our first bub!

2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. It's ok, I don't love it, but it does what I need. I like the way it looks.
My next car is a Suburban or Yukon XL. Hopefully one newer that 2007 or so. Ha, in my dreams I will have something that new. It's a total mom car, but I don't care; I need the space.

@abbydabbydoodlebug: How is it getting into the 3rd row? Also, is there any cargo space at all in the back with the 3rd row up?

Right now, it's not my choice but it's a 2012 Toyota Tundra. DH loves it. He wants to buy a boat next year and think it's the perfect family car.
We're thinking of buying a hybrid highlander or some type of Honda. We really loved our old Cadillac crossover SRX and we have tossed the idea around about buying a new one but my dad would kill us. He hates GM and told us it was going to cost us a fortune in repairs. He was right. The cady was in the shop every month it seemed like but...it was an amazing car!!!
ETA: here is the beast. I am always inches away from hitting the garage wall!

We need 4x4 or AWD where we live.

@evansjamie: Valerie is so pretty. @Dandelion: Volvos tale me back to happy childhood memories. @HLK208: you have skills. I would definitely pummel through the garage wall.

I have a 2001 green Honda CRV--DH gave it to me when we started dating. He drives a Mazda 3. I get the next new car! @Dandelion: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: Volvo station wagons are my childhood too! My parents had two of them--1991s in white and silver. Now they just have one, and my dad has a Mini. My sister drives the Volvo.

I have a 2005 gray escape, it's payed off so I love it DH has a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, and we love that too. Both nothing fancy or brand new but they get the job done!

We have a 2002 CRV and a 2012 Civic. I want a mini van or larger SUV!

@Andrea: My sister just got that car. I had to drive it once, it was so cool.

I just got a new Mom mobile!! A 2013 Pathfinder, I'm totally loving the space and convenience of it (we have two dogs, one is a giant - 130lbs so that limited our options!). They changed the middle row to be more like a van so it slides all the way up and folds down if need be. It can fit three convertibles too! Great option for any families that need the space but don't want a van, in my opinion
EDIT: Can you tell I'm super excited about it? You'd think I was trying to sell it!

@HLK208: I don't even know if I would attempt to park that in the garage. Kudos to you!

@Smurfette: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I've been close. It's a two car garage but it's such a giant truck that it takes up all the room we have (plus strollers)

@HLK208: I would for sure be hitting the front bumper, every time! You've got some skills!

My mom-mobile....black 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and I LOVE it! I've had 2 Jeeps and they literally never need repairs and are insane in the snow. It blows DH's Ford Escape out of the water when it comes to driving in winter weather.

@HLK208: Thanks! Cannot say enough good things about it! I think even if we have 3 babes it will still suit our needs. Drives amazing too.

I have a black 2012 Honda odyssey. It has changed my life! The whole family (my family of 4, grandparents go on trips together and sometimes my brother and SIL squeeze in too).
