. . . our old Triumph TR-6 was bad enough. THERE's a car that a priest should NEVER drive . . . unless he likes spending a lot of time hitchhiking to his destination or getting under the hood.

Personally, I couldn’t care less what kind of car a priest drives. Really.
Regards,

I agree.
Catholic churches are built with great beauty to give glory to God Who is Beauty and Truth.
I knew it wouldn’t take long to see the Ferrari that Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. drive in “The Cannonball Run”.
Eh, that’s a myth. I am not talking about a circa 1955 model. As for the car I have, the little one (old well maintained Miata) is a pretty damn efficient commuter car, but only for short men. I wouldn’t try to fit anybody tall or “heavy” into it, they’re just not designed to carry those people.
Miatas are cute. I remember when they came out.
I drive a 15-passenger van.
God bless Pope Francis.
It was the first thing that came to mind. Hilarious movie!
I’m not sure any Catholic diocese are doing as well as they were in the 60’s. I could be wrong. I’m sure there is an exception to every rule.
I won’t argue with that.
I say no, it doesn’t look good especially when they are assigned to poor urban churches. I’ve seen a priest, who came from a wealthy family drive a fancy car, wear $200 sunglasses and have a membership at a country club while a pastor at a church in the ghetto. Not very humble in my book.
