Glad bro, and so cute that they love it, looks like this makes my decision that much better. Definitely listen to the little boss, she knows what she's talking aboutI love this question.
For me personally, my Dad had a 94 tan on green eddie bauer Bronco. He took me hunting in it all the time, and he let me use it as my prom transportation. Obviously it made an impact on my life, and I bought my own 94 eight years ago and still daily drive it. I used to take my two older kids offroading in it all the time. They both want it when they turn 16 and constantly ask me about the new bronco, and which one I'm getting. My oldest daughter is dead set on A51 if I pull the trigger. I also built a 69 chevelle with my father-in-law. Although that car has a special place in my heart, my girls could care less about it. They never really got to ride in it or work on it with me so to them it was just another vehicle. The Bronco however, they enjoy all the memories we've made in it and they love it. They both want their own Bronco someday, just like I did.
How's the Chevelle btw?
And I'm ok with them kicking each other's ass to be the one to drive it when they start joy riding

I remember detailing, then getting to do a VERY short drive in a customers 1994 Lamborghini Diablo VT. Black with tan interior... Nearly came in the seat, it was GLORIOUS! (don't mind that the clutch was a monster and impossibly difficult to drive)
If we have to recall cars within our family, it will be the afore mentioned mid-80's 911 Turbo in beautiful Moss Green with tan interior. Being the youngest, I had to sit in back with my head smashed against the glass, craning my neck sideways to look out the side window. Even as an under-sized 8 year old, the back seat of a 911 is no place to be.

Damn, beautiful widow maker there. If the kids ever misbehave, just throw them in the back seat of the Porsche, they'll learn.I remember detailing, then getting to do a VERY short drive in a customers 1994 Lamborghini Diablo VT.

Damn, lucky bastard, never had a chance to drive a Lambo, though I have had my fair share of non turbo porsches

As the illustrious James May once said "Never meet your idols. Never meet your childhood hero's".
Ohhhhhhhh it looked like pure sex. But It's awful to drive. Only slightly better than the Countach.

I can imagine. Fortunately most of my heroes are mostly working class (Tuners and Muscle)

to be completely honest, I dont think the vehicle necessarily responsible for creating memories but the fun and happy times in those vehicles lead to memorable moments. My father had a fixed up rx7 in '99 and couple off road trucks in the 2000's; but i only remember fun times in a 2008 NIssan Pathfinder. Its What you make of it, not the vehicle.

I remember everything about my friend's and family's vehicles because it's an extension of their personality. I don't think it has to have a certain "cool" factor...just has to be more than basic transportation for them.

True, true, though gotta make it awesome and memorable regardless
For sure...whatever that looks like for you. I'm a gearhead today because my dad and uncle always included me in whatever they were into at the time.
