1966 Renault Dauphine. I doubt anyone here has ever even seen one, I had two!

Second car was a truck, 1983 F-150 4wd, 300 I6, bought it brand new

Third car was a 1980 Ford Fiesta

There have been at least 40 cars/trucks/4wd's since then.

Well, 11 years ago, It was a 1989 Nissan Pulsar NX 5-speed (5th gear never worked) that I bought for $900 that I ragged the heck out of... then sold it for $1,200! LOL! I launched it over some railroad tracks and caught about 5 feet of air in a "Dukes of Hazzard" move (only cratering the oil pan) and it still ran! I miss the heck out that car! And I'm glad I've gotten all that craziness out of my system.... well, most of it anyways!

The photos are only a representation, not my actual car... I can't find the pics of it

First ride I was allowed to drive to high school was my Dad's bright yellow '93 Silverado. Looked exactly like the one below but with different rims.

First car that's going to be mine when I finish paying it off will be my '06 GMC Sierra 2wd. Bought it on 22's but now its riding on stockers till i can afford the lift, tires, and Walker Evans...

First truck that i actually owned was an '88 4runner i bought and then sold for $400 profit four months later. Learned to drive stick in it. Loved that thing even though it had a sticky starter celluloid and had me stranded a few occasions for an hour or two.

Month after that, i used that $2500 from my 4runner to buy my jeep

Now my buddy found a stocker for $300 that will be mine too..(Keeping both the jeep and GMC) Hopefully today is when he's picking it up for me.... The guy was walking down his street, saw my buddies rig in the driveway (teal one pictured) and asked if he wanted to buy another Cherokee...lol (no pics of this one yet)









When i first saw my Jeep




and as it sits now with my friends' rigs(not much changed)
