Here's half of my stable (yes, parking garages aren't the best):
-2011 Corvette
-2008 Triumph Daytona 675
-1998 Cherokee
Absent members include a 2012 Golf, 2010 Camaro 2SS/RS, 1993 Camaro Z28, 1989 Camaro Iroc-Z and a 1976 Triumph Bonneville that needs some love. Since I only have two parking spaces at my condo, I keep the stragglers in my Dad's shop and rotate the toys occasionally. Building a house with a massive garage will be my next project...
Update: found some terrible pics of the rest of the family.
Golf (my usual foul weather daily driver):
Camaro:
Other Camaro awaiting the completion of its latest paint job:
Bonneville desperately needing attention:
Better shot of the Daytona:
-2011 Corvette
-2008 Triumph Daytona 675

'03 2500HD Dmax/Allison. +110hp no smoke, rhino liner, 33" KM2's, wheels, tools in a box, new Bilsteins,4" straight pipe, one overused hitch 
. Great truck, ~17(actual) mpg around town at ~7100lbs on big tires, can't ask for more. Been a great truck. Urges to build trans/turbo, but will stay the way it is if I'm smart enough lol. Feels like a rocket powered caddy compared to my XJ lol. Doesn't offroad like an XJ tho! Might acually go down a little on tires for the truck next time since I don't wheel it like an idiot anymore. Love both of them, and won't sell either!
