Ford Ranger, it is 20 years old, and I put 700-800 miles on it every week.

It will hold 3 uprights, 4 if you are creative.

I am not exactly sure how many miles mine has on it, but I know someone else with the same year, tranny, and engine who has a verified 750,000 on his engine (second transmission though).

Mine shows 60K on the odometer, certainly rolled once, likely twice.

87 Buick Grand National

Won't Haul games..only hauls @$$!!!
Maybe a few monitors would fit in the huge trunk.

Fastest Production vehicle in 87... Faster that the Corvette

(1/4 mile times, that is)

87 Buick Grand National

My dad has a '87 Grand National motor still in the factory shipping crate.

'91 Montero - cocktail or upright would fit.
'96 Silverado - two or three uprights would fit comfortably.
'93 GMC Dually - Same as above, wouldn't squat the suspension as much.
'91 GMC Topkick - 24' box truck, ideal for a warehouse raid.
'92 Kenworth T600A - Can you say "bulk buy"?

SpamMe · « **Reply #10 on:** June 20, 2004, 05:57:07 am »

Zero, but uh... it'd carry console games...

Jam161 · « **Reply #11 on:** June 20, 2004, 06:17:04 am »

I got a 2004 cavailierr type z, bet i could carry atleast 2 games on the roof... maybe youd need a roof rack though... guess we'll just have to find out

Magnet_Eye · « **Reply #12 on:** June 20, 2004, 07:40:06 am »

0 arcade games...lotsa other fun stuff!

Only been gutsy enough to take her to just over 150 MPH so far...

Who needs arcade games when you have this ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---!?

maraxle · « **Reply #13 on:** June 20, 2004, 08:53:26 am »

2000 Volkswagen Jetta GLX. It's an overpriced piece of crap. The mechanic sees it more often than I do. It has 38k miles on it, and doesn't fit a single game.

Ed ONeill · « **Reply #14 on:** June 20, 2004, 12:52:47 pm »

Well

Today I am driving the wife's 02 mustang gt convertible and there is a few thousand games in it....
Can you say portable battery operated MAME machine .

You can see my newly completed creation...MAME On The MOVE under project announcements.

BTW ..this machine will even fit in my very rare 1986 1/2 Pontiac Grand Prix 2+2 (only 1181 made) . This car possibly has the smallest trunk lid you will ever see...you can't just barely fit a dufflebag in.

Just my 2 cents

missioncontrol · « **Reply #15 on:** June 20, 2004, 12:55:33 pm »

Ford Bronco....

have had one upright in it had to move my tools around to get it in...perhaps if I got creative and took off the top I would fit more....also had my cocktail cabinet in there with plenty of room....

i just went to a link from another thread which brought me to this:

http://home.earthlink.net/~renima/newstar.html

love this car! but ive forgotten whos car it is! so im putting my hand up for you. i hope you dont mind...
reminds me when i was a backpacker in Canada. There were these Israeli backpackers who had a big ol' clunker like this- maybe a four door lincoln. they had sprayed it matt black with spray cans and painted yellow batmobile symbols on the doors!
i went to start my old car yesterday (so inspired was i) to pose it for a photo but the battery was flat. ill have it ready in a few hours.

danny_galaga · « **Reply #19 on:** June 21, 2004, 03:59:52 am »

dammit. battery's too dead to charge

. have to get a new one...

patrickl · « **Reply #20 on:** June 21, 2004, 04:47:05 am »

Audi TT Coupe. I did move my PocketGalaga MicroCab with this one once. Does that count?

stuzza · « **Reply #21 on:** June 21, 2004, 06:14:02 am »

2003 Lancer 1.8L Coupe -> just reached 7500 km on the dial!

Extras:
Evo VII Body Kit
16" Speedy Mags
Tinted Windows
White Sports Dials
Sports Exhaust

Fits about 2 home made Control Panels: One in the boot, one in the passengers seat

danny_galaga · « **Reply #22 on:** June 21, 2004, 07:24:28 am »

ok, i've charged my battery up. here's the pic. oh, hang on. i thought it was 'what car can you put in your cab'. i get a bit cixelsyd sometimes...

Stingray · « **Reply #23 on:** June 21, 2004, 01:46:54 pm »

1974 Austin Mini.

I can carry a few consoles, but not as many as Spamme can, his car has a bigger trunk.

I also have a Ranger of similar vintage as Paige's. If he says it can carry three games, I'll take his word for it.

97 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Holds one pinball very nicely with back seat folded down.

GGKoul · « **Reply #25 on:** June 21, 2004, 02:49:49 pm »

I just got a 2005 Nissan X-Trail. It'll hold 1 machine.

Sephroth57 · « **Reply #26 on:** June 21, 2004, 02:50:36 pm »

1995 Eclipse GSX.... running 12.8 1/4 mile currently

fits 0 cabs =p

Grauwulf · « **Reply #27 on:** June 22, 2004, 08:40:05 pm »

1991 Dodge Dakota. Will probably fit 3 uprights, hold one pinball machine nicely, and thanks to my skills playing tetris, I was able to put my showcase cab in the back and still be able to close the tailgate.

My other vehicle is a 1990 Mustang Coupe and it will hold precisely 0 cabinets. My golf bag hardly fits in the trunk.

JoyMonkey · « **Reply #28 on:** June 22, 2004, 10:06:22 pm »

I drive a 1992 Chevy Shitbox. At least I did until it died on me yesterday on my way home from work- in the middle of Boston rush hour traffic no less!

Hopefully it doesn't come back to life, I really need to buy a new car but I keep fixing up this old heap of junk.
Games it held: 0

danny_galaga · « **Reply #29 on:** June 23, 2004, 04:32:32 am »

Ok, ill be serious now. Here is my car with a defender cabinet. Wasn

come to think of it, the doors wouldn't open either...

Joy Monkey ......I think I heard about the trafficc jam you caused ,on the radio...lol

danny_galaga..... if you took that picture from a further distance and the curb wasn't there you could pass that off as a real car and cab.

OK, went and bought a new battery for my old car. On sale at $35, cheaper than the battery in the model I posted earlier! this is the car I used to drive, and the car I now drive. The yellow car is a Holden Torana, which for those outside Australia and New Zealand, is a GM brand. You would best know Holden from their revived Monaro marque which was a GT in the late 60
