1979 Mercury Capri, basically a stereo that occasionally could drive me somewhere when I was 16.
1990 Chevy Cavalier, this was a surprisingly good car that served me well thru college.
1997 VW GTI this was a decent car, problem was I rolled it off the road and was lucky to catch a tree on a hill 5 months after I bough it. Should have kept it longer.
2001 Nissan XTERRA, this was a mistake. Woefully underpowered gas guzzler, essentially where my life begins it's downward spiral.
1979 Dodge D150 bought it off a guy from work for $400...he tried to get me to give him $8 more for the newspaper add he bought! This was a yard truck for me that I used for hauling landscaping stuff. Never put anything but gas in it and it lasted for like two years until I junked it for $200.
2002 Mustang GT Convertible. Still have this in my gate, with 56000km on it. I hate to get rid of it because it's worth like 2500 bucks. But I don't really have room to keep it.
2006 Toyota Rav4, this was a good vehicle with the V6. Lots of power and got decent mileage sold it a couple years ago.
2010 Chrysler Town and Country. It's a van they're as bad as they're advertised to be. But you still fit 2 kids and two big dogs in it and get reasonable mileage for cheap. With one dog gone, and the other getting up there in age we will likely look for something different.
2006 Chevrolet Silverado a pity gift from my in laws. It's set up to tow a trailer...something I'll never own. Solid vehicle that you can do a lot of things with. But I really need to get something more efficient to drive to and from work.

Would love to buy something newer, but the old vehicles I have still work. Someone smart would go buy a 2004 Corolla to drive back and forth to work...I almost bought a 2004 E420 at an auction two weeks ago....Me and vehicles tends to end up as a bad decision.
