Those logging roads where you'ld hit the washboards just as an 18 wheeler with 
a full load of timber comes around a blind curve at you? Pucker factor of 10.

    I can't remember what years most of my cars were. And most of the time I 
lived in Oregon, and all of the time I lived in New York, I had no car.

    1. Opel Kadett

    2. '56 Ford F100 pickup with a 272 V8 with tri-power. The on the column 
with overdrive. Man, I wish I still had that one.

    3. 1960 bus named Jason, because we bought it on Jason Street in Encinitas, 
Calif. Shared "ownership" with 4 other guys. We put thousands and thousands of 
milles up and down the West Coast and Colorado. Changed engines like they were 
batteries. A used engine complete, carb, heads, complete was about $80. Got 
arrested in for being a heavily armed car thief.

    3a. A 46 Chevy panel van named Mona. Had so many common owners, nobody knew 
who was in charge of it.

    4. 67 Volvo Station Wagon

    5. 75 Volvo Turbo Station wagon

    6. 90 Mitsubishi Montero

    Now own:

    05 Toyota Tundra

    05 Honda Element

    68 Karmann Ghia Vert

    63 Sundial treekisser Camper

        So I just got to thinking tonight about all the cars that I've 
owned.... I started a list, this is just what I can remember off the top of my 
head... 
        Also - what cars have ya'll owned and what do you currently own, and 
what's on the "must have list"?

        Cars that I own:
        67 VW bug 2180cc
        72 VW Karmann Ghia Rat rod in progress
        72 VW Westifalia bus + 74 short bus trailer
        05 Toyota Highlander
        99 F150 For Sale
        90 Acura Legend For Sale
        89 Mazda For Sale

        Past Cars: (in no order)
        91 Chevy astro van
        74 VW sunroof bug
        74 Pontiac Grandville convertible
        91 Lincoln town car
        79 VW Convertible bug
        67 VW bus
        96 Ford crown vic P71
        97 Ford crown vic P71
        98 Ford crown vic P71
        99 Ford crown vic P71
        99 Ford crown vic P71
        00 Ford crown vic P71

        96 Land Rover Discovery
        00 Harley Davidson Dyna Lowrider
        80 Honda 110 Trail bike

        That's an average of 3 cars per year of driving, or a new car every 
four months, I did buy a lot of those cars to sell, but ended up driving for a 
short while almost everyone of them.
