80 Turbo Trans Am (at 17 yrs. old)
68 GTO (in Army, at 18 yrs old)
93 5.0 LX Mustang (at 21)
00 Furd Focus (gross)
02 Mustang GT
95 Sentra (gross, but free)
02 Z28 (just got it a few months ago)

Fun car: my current 73 El Camino.

Also had a few sportbikes mixed in there as well.

All of my cars are built with driving in mind so they are all drivers in my opinion. Unless I have my friends '71 Malibu Convertible... that is strictly a nice-day car.

Drivers; 1976 Malibu Classic sedan - first car, got the keys to it in '92-- my first ride in it was when my parents took me home from the hospital after I was born.

1986 Pontiac 6000-STE - 1999-2001. Fun car, Almost as fast as the '76, a bit more fuel efficent, but not nearly as reliable, but needed far less cosmetic work.

1995 Furd Explorer XLT- 2001 to now. Bought off my brother in law for peanuts, and it currently has 280,000 miles. It's my fun get-dirty car for pounding down dirt roads and also my clean it up and take it on dates car, basically everything I want to do, I usually use it.

2000 Furd Contour - 2008-2009. Meh. bought for 250 bucks fixed it up and drove it while gas prices were sky-high. I never did like it very much, nor did it get much better mileage than the Explorer despite the 4 cylinder engine. Sold for 2,000. I turned around and then

Bought the green '77 Malibu Classic. It's the fun car in general, not the primary driver but I tend to drive it far more often now. It serves as backup to the elderly Explorer.

1974 El Camino-Daily
1972 GMC Sierra Grande (Not running)

94 V6 five speed mustang daily
2001 dodge 1500 reg cab short bed five speed 8" of lift on 35's fun daily when gas is under 3 dollars a gallon.
73 chevelle fun if i get her goin. Only got two drives on her.
