If vaping gear were vehicles

@Rob Fisher, I would cry myself to sleep every night of the rest of my life. My dad has the td5 Westminster and my Brother has the Disco2 V8. I will give my slightly larger left te... tonsil for any one of those.

And it was almost brand new... 20,000km's on the clock and the Trailer I was towing was brand new... 2 days old. :-(

So have Toyota... FJ40

As I said, no such thing as a bad 4X4 just bad drivers.

If you had seen what we did in the Zambian bush, in the middle of the rainy season, with Hilux 2.5 D4D bakkies... Low range and diff lock! Scary times
 
I did find what an Reo with 0.01 ohm quad coul would have looked like as a car

Unfortunately I also found out that they wrote it off.

Lol, you guys are just hilarious
Loving all the funny posts.

That scooter racing that car @kimbo is classic

And the Woodvil/Rolls Royce comparison is also fantastic.

LOL @Arctus - your chirp about a Reo being a BMW is so funny - owners can't stop talking about it and taking photos.

I am really confused about the car to compare the Reo to.
The Reo is not technologically advanced - but it just works like a champion and is reliable - so in that respect it is like a Toyota
But then, it's not the Toyota Corolla of vaping devices either - because it is not positioned as an entry level device.

It's also not the most luxurious device either - rather rugged and rustic. So comparing it to say a Lexus SUV, is also not really right.

I have never owned a LandRover myself - so I suppose I have no way to compare - but durability and ruggedness with performance are definitely attributes that the Reo has in abundance. I'd also say good value for money. So I was thinking a Discovery. Not all the fanciness of the RangeRover, but all the performance and comfort, yet rugged and also somewhat distinguished.

Yip, for me, I think it is a LandRover Discovery

Even the shape is quite comparable - boxy, yet stylish - and quite unusual
Comfortable on all sorts of terrains
 
Lol, some people even criticise the Reo for being "old technology"
After all, the basic design has hardly changed much over the past few years.

I realised the picture of the Discovery I posted above is a 2011 model

I think it's good ;-)
 
The iStick for me is more of a Ford Escort - Doesn't start/fire every time/reliably, produces its power in a weird way and was once one of the most powerful in it's class.

Lol, classic @Arctus -
Funny thing is I prefer the way the SVD fires my Nautilus Mini to the iStick. Weird. But maybe its the type of modulation or something like that - but the power delivery of the iStick feels different - and not as nice to me as the SVD. Strange.
 
Have to agree with @Genosmate, a Toyota of course, because here is ours - bundu bashing a bit.

I have often thought of comparing my vaping gear to different vehicles
Sometimes this has practical merit to help explain the comparison to new vapers in terms they better understand.
Here are some of my device setups and the vehicles they could be

Green Smoke cigalike - 50cc scooter - nimble and small but can get you around if you need

Twisp - 125cc scooter - a bit more speed and dependability, but has its limitations

Evod1 and MVP2 - Toyota Corolla - smooth, reliable, not fancy but dependable

Nautilus Mini and SVD/iStick - BMW 3 series - more sporty, more performance

Reo and RM2 - either a Rolls Royce or a Landrover, help me to decide - solid, durable, high quality and performance

What are your vehicle comparisons?

I'd have to say I'd class a reo as more of an off road type vehicle. Hard wearing and robust.
 
Na! this is the real Reo = BMW 530i (I'm not ashamed to post a pic of my car without any modifications @Arctus :D)

That's very nice, no modifications required. Only ever had 1 and 3 series myself, but I could definitely see myself aspiring to a 5 series,...just like many people aspire to the reo, so you may be right, that could very well be the real reo.:)

@Silver not strange at all, feel the same about my iStick, prefer the MVP over the iStick, hell, I prefer the CLK over the iStick.
My iStick has become strictly a backup device for when everything else is either flat or charging.
 
Atlantis + CF Sub Ohm = Honda Civic
Magma + Panzer = Audi A4 estate
Stillare + Vanilla = Ferrari
Lotus + Steelpunk Slug = Mahindra Scorpio
Veritas + Chi You = S65 AMG
Nautilus Mini + Cana = Kia Picanto
