I did a search and I personally did not find very many good suggestions for appropriate, practical, and reasonable vehicles in the game so I am making a shot at it for myself.
If you are looking for modern things, you will not find them here, so look elsewhere.
My first idea is to have a simple wagon. Not like a stagecoach wagon, but a wagon that you can pull around. The idea of having minecart with chests in them is GREAT, however it's most practical use if for material transportation en masse. A simple wagon I think would be a great way to transport a chest worth of materials from point A to point B. It wouldn't take durability damage or break much like a minecart. The bad part about this vehicle is that carrying one of these around makes you a HUUUUUGE target especially in a PVP server. You can pull it by left clicking the wagon and walking around wherever. It will move just like a minecart up and down hills. So, you can't really do much else while carrying this wagon.
Next idea would be to have mine carts that link together. Making trains would be a great way to transport a group of people from one place to another. Single carts are all well and good, but RP wise, mutliple car trains would be fantastic.
Here's another idea. How about a sailboat? The sail of course is aesthetic, but the idea here is to be able to transport a group of people across larger bodies of water. It would not be practical to try and pilot this vessel through smaller river as it is too big, but what if you could park one of these bad boys just off the coast near your beachfront property. It carries 3 people. 1 captain and two passengers. All passengers are seated. It has higher movement speeds in ocean biomes but it requires 2 blocks of water beneath it so it can move.
Last one! This one relies on the adition of a trainable mob if you want THE BEST. The great people at mojang are already giving us piggy rides, but what if we had a 2 piggy power ride that could carry us and a friend? Take some mine carts, some wood, to make a cart for 2. Attach two saddles together with a stick. and tie the whole thing together with some string and you have a Pig, or HORSE Drawn Cart. In the back is one double chest so you can store all that junk in your trunk. If you crash into trees you take damage similar to a boat. It can clear 1 block heights on its own, but will take damage if you hit something 2 blocks high. It will also break if you crash it into water.
Someone posted the idea of a hot air ballon. I like that idea as it kinda fits in our world here, but it should behave like a hot air ballon in that it can't really be piloted much more than going up or down. Outside that, it will just sort of drift in a direction for say... 30 blocks and then pick another direction in a cone in front of it.
The 'Pig, or HORSE' part is quite simple. No horses will be added, only with mods. Pigs it will be.
Diamond!

I hate people who complain. I hate spiders. I hate people who own an Xbox One. I hate people who like sandbox games. I hate people who like first person shooters. I hate people who like explosions. I hate people who like video games. I hate people who are hateful. I hate people that don't like spam. I hate people who like cake. I hate people who type in proper grammar and spell words properly on the internet. I hate hypocrites.
Did they say they would never add horses? Seems like something they would EVENTUALLY want to do.
I believe they did. They said something like: "Who needs horses when you have pigs?" I think that pigs fit the theme better, and horses may not look very good in the blockish format.
The wagons will be attachable to pigs right? I like that.
As I have been informed, links WILL be included for the Redstone update.
How about chain? You could use it to link minecarts together and craft armor. My other suggestion is being able to attach wagons to pigs for easier transport or even a chariot.

And... carts are on my list, after I get the schooner working (see thread in WIP mods re: the Elegant Punt).

I support.
