FBOs with best crew cars?

[CaravanMan]

Just wondering who you all think has the best crew cars. Most airports I've been to have turds, but at Million Air @ HOU last week we had a brand new Jag. That was pretty darn cool! What all have you guys seen in your travels?

Swift PHX has a couple of new Audi A4's.....they also have a couple of beaters.

The Million Air in STP has jags and caddys.

Million Air in Midway has Jags too.

The coolest was the 69 Caddy at some crap airport in Demming, New Mexico.

too long ago to remeber exactly where. some Alabama FBO in the late 90's had a mid 70's Caddy land yacht and a N. Carolina FBO had a late 70's diesel Mercedes...i'd take these over new Jags any day

Jags suck...I was happy when Million Air MDW had the Toyota Avalon with the navigation system in it...but that was only temporary while they were in the process of getting another crappy jag.

Can I use it?

Only crew cars I've used were in ILM at Air Wilmington. They had a few big newish SUVs.

It's only cool when you have stickers all over the cars saying:

"Turn off video games, turn on airplanes."

Back in the Day.....

Jacksonville had a big ole' white Cadillac Eldorado convertable with red leather seats probably a mid 70's car. Only thing missing was the Steer Horns on the hood!

What a beauty

Cheyenne ...
We were there last month. They have a wicked old Lincoln they call the "Stinkin' Lincoln". It's a beater for sure - you put a window down, it ain't coming up. Get to where you're going, the driver has to get out and walk around to let the right seat pax out.
Had some fun in that ride!

My favorite (read most usefull) was in Rifle, Colorado. Early 80s Suburban 4x4. That vehicle took me through many back "high" country dirt and mud roads. Of course, my crewmates thought I'd lost my mind but they got to see parts of Colorado most never will! Too bad we don't go there anymore as I miss those jaunts!

Back in the early 90s Page in DTW had an old Ford station wagon. You'd get your feet we driving in the rain!

At the end of the day, if it has four wheels and runs, it's ok by me!

Pella, Iowa had a Police Squad car a while back. Even still had the single big red light on top (1960's model). Pretty cool buzzing around town in that one.

Also, Coffeyville, KS had a Hurse - again it was like a 1960's model. That was friggen weird.

 

[Tailwheelman]

Signature in Long Beach has a new jag as well. Pretty nice ride.

 

[indianboy7]

nicest: Raytheon Jet Center in Tampa. Brand new licoln towncars and cadillac devilles. The towncars have adjustable gas and brake pedals and nice comfy plush seats........

beater of the century: Lamar Colorado. 1978 Dodge station wagon. Big ramming bumpers. Paper mache on the fenders to hold them together. Shag carpeting, state of the art 8-track player with AM radio. Turn the steering wheel 90 degrees, wait a block or two, then hold on.....good times:beer:

Millionaire ADS - Jag and Navigator

Best ever - Safford, AZ - old beat up white station wagon with CHROME SPINNING RIMS... tape deck with a mix of 80's music already in it, haha. I pulled up to Subway in it and a bunch of people walking out the door almost fell over laughing.

I was in MO, someplace, can't remember, and the car was an official county car, no drive. Leave it in 2nd. Reverse it had to think about, for a long time, and then when it started to move, it didn't like it.

The best was in NY, again someplace I can't remember, there was no crew car, the only food was a vending machine, and some nice lady loaned us her new SUV so we could get lunch.

 

[leardawg]

There's a Millionaire out in CA that has PT Cruisers (I can't remember where; maybe Thermal or Palm Springs).

Then there's Poisonwell Nebraska's Cornhole Aviation's 25-year old station wagon with broken AC, missing knob on the radio tuner, door that doesn't close completely, and sounds like a Sherman Tank comin' over the hill to relieve Bastogne! (and drives like one too!).

Back in the day AHN Athens, GA had a beater Impala but it had a Govt. Plate and you could park the thing anywhere you wanted. No tickets.

Cedar City, Ut. used to have new Hummers and BMWs. Maybe they still do.
