My husband wants to know “what’s the quintessential hot dad car?”

[Anonymous]

Realistically, it (almost) doesn't matter how cool your car is if you are 300lb ham beast. A "cool dad" has a cool vibe that goes along with the car - they complement each other.

Ah, yeah, no.

You don’t think a man who is good with his hands is hot? Any man can buy an expensive car. Money isn’t hot.

Well, he would have had to use his brain to make the money, are you saying being smart is not hot?

Smart and good with hands is hot. Smart and foolish with money and preening but few useful skills is not hot.

Most people driving these cars are in a position where their time is worth more than the money they save by doing the work themselves.

I don’t work on my weekend cars to save money, I earn a very comfortable living already. I work on them because I like working on them. I LOVE turning wrenches.

It’s my own flex on all the other lame-ass husbands up and down our street. I’m sure I’m the only home in our community with a lift in the garage. I know I’m the only guy around here who can pull the engine and trans out of my ‘68 Riviera hot rod in an afternoon or rebuild a smallblock in a few evenings after work.

Like I said, that’s my flex. Other dweebs brag about being a 5-handicap. I can take a classic car apart and put it back together again.

I am DEFINITELY cool-dad.

Yeahhh you’re my hot daddy hope your wife appreciates it!

I’m not perfect. I regularly catch hell for getting greasy handprints on the doors and light switches.

Cadillac Escalade V-Series (fast)

Mercedes G-Wagon G63 AMG (fast)

FIFY

What each car says about the me. Who drive it -


Escalade: “I overpaid 30% for what’s basically a Suburban or Tahoe, with a lot of chrome on it. John Boehner and I have the same car, and the same golf handicap. My penis doesn’t work anymore”.

Ford Raptor: “When I die, I wanna be reincarnated as Ted Nugent, circa 1976. Trust me, the EcoBoost V6 is JUST as good as the V8 it used to have. Honest!!! My penis still works, but it’s on the small side”.

Lexus GS 550: “I coulda had the Land Cruiser for $20k less, but I have more money than brains. I tell myself it’s better than the Toyota even though they’re both built on the same assembly line. I have an off-road vehicle but I’d never dream of taking it off-road. Ever. “


G-Wagon 63: “if I’m not already an Armenian mobster, I want people to think I am. Depreciation? I’m not familiar with the term - explain? I’m taking it back to the dealership because my wife (or mistress) burned her leg on the side exhaust”.




There ya go. That’s what they each say about the men who own them.

A cool car isn’t gonna make a guy cool by osmosis. Conversely, a cool guy is cool, no matter what he’s driving.

You seem to spend a lot of mindshare thinking about the size of random men’s anatomy. You sound poor and closeted.

Dads are middle aged. A middle aged man driving a Nissan Leaf or some piece of crap clunker is ick, no matter how attractive he is. Middle aged dads can be hot with confidence, fitness and virility, and success. Broke middle aged dads are not hot.

Cool dads ride Triumph or BMW motorcycles.

A bunch of cool cars can't be dad cars because they lack seats for at least 2 kids, like a Porsche 911.

So if you mean practical hot dad car, it could be a cool wagon like a Volvo V70, Cadillac CTS-V, or Audi RS6. Not a Subaru Outback!

If I wanted to be a Hot Dad, I'd get an Audi RS7

Or, if I needed a car for transporting kids, a Kia Telluride.

Those guys aren't hot, though.

A hot dad drives the most practical car for his needs. And he won't notice that women think he's hot because he's such a wife guy (as they used to say back when I cared about hot guys)
