Hey, Doobie. Nice assortment. You seem to be the original "equal opportunity" vehicle owner - cars and trucks of just about every brand. How come you never inflicted an English car on yourself, like some of us have.

 

Hey, Shifter. Whatta ya got?

 

Okay, I've had my fair share considering I'am 23:

1997: Black Ford F-150 XLT SuperCab 4X4/5.4l - My latest pride and joy. I just picked it up last week. I've been wanting a new body style F150 4x4 since late '96. Didn't have cash to spend on a brand new one, but the guy at the dealership gave me an even trade for the Tahoe. I paid $170.00 for the application, title transfer, etc. So I finally got what I've been itchin for. The truck is in such good shape, I don't know if I wanna go muddin' in it although I'am sure to change my mind...back to FORD I go!

1996: Blue/Tan Chevrolet Tahoe LT 4 Door - Okay, too many ticked in the Camaro RS, plus I wanted to get rid of it becuase the resale value is crap, and needed more room.

1996: Candy Apple Red Chevrolet Camaro RS - Chevy or not, this had to be the best car I've owned. Sticked for $23,000, but I picked it up with 7k miles on it for $17,500. Fine looking car, even though it had a V6.

1990: Bright Red Ford Mustang GT 5.0 Convertible - Damn I miss this car. I had tons of fun driving it, crusing, modifying...Sold it with 165,000 miles...ran rock solid.

1987: White Pontiac Trans Am GTA - Loved this car..but always in the garage getting those damn air flow sensors replaced. Went through 4 in one year! Had a 350/5.7l TPI...quite fast.

1985: Red/Silver Chevrolet S10 - A total POS


Just my .02

To Doobie:

Don't have anything English currently. I learned my lesson. Did own a Vauxhall Victor ('59) as a kid that had white metal main bearings - motor blew up and died at 20K miles. In winter the column shift would freeze solid across the neutral gate. Depending on which half of the "H" I parked it in, I would drive around with only 1st and reverse or only 2nd and 3rd. Shifter finally snapped off. Had a TR-6 ('69) I loved. That one had bizarre lever-action rear shocks (like scissors) that kept on piddling their fluid - one broke completely in half.

Jerry D said he once owned a Morris Minor. Any stories?

 

Started with a 79 Toyota Supra. Old car but it hauled. 84 Saab was next. Decent car till I wrecked it then it all went downhill. 89 Acura Legend, Sweet car Till I wrecked that one. Then it was all downhill again. Then My 98 F150. Man I hope I don't wreck this one, I love My truck

Probably the most interesting thing about the Morris [other than Mr. Lucas' handiwork leaving me stranded, and trying to keep up w/ traffic in the Colorado mountains with 33 hp, which I think only occurred way beyond redline] was that it had a nice hole in the bumper, so if the starter didn't work [most of the time] you could use the jack handle to start the engine, Model T style. When my high school buddies found this out, they would have me kill the engine @ stoplights, so one of them could jump out and crank start the thing. Other motorists thought it was a VW with some sort of 'glass body on it. All in all, though, it was a lot of fun for the $125 I paid for it in 1972 [including two 5.60x14 studded snow tires on extra rims].

1983 Ranger 4x2 with 4 speed (Bought it for $2350 in 1992 with 86,000 miles. Still have it, 163,000 miles. Its been a really good truck).

Now- 1999 F150 - I love this truck!

My first post on this incredibly cool web site!

I drove a '93 Nissan King Cab 5 speed, and had driven Nissan mini-trucks since '83 (first new vehicle I ever bought). They're great little things, but too small! I'm quite tall, and the F-150 is the most comfy thing I've had yet for my frame. I've sat in and driven so-called full sized luxury sedans, and none of them matches the comfort of my Supercab. I won't even start on the power difference between the step-up to good ol' American Iron (or is it aluminum, now?)
