chrono order from high school till now

'76 Pinto
'78 Tbird
'84 civic
'85 accord
'66 mustang conv
89 ford aerostar
90 chevy van
92 ford van
94 taurus
94 Lincoln Mark VIII
96 ford windstar
97 jeep wrangler

98 Mustang GT conv
2000 Honda Pilot
2001 mustang cobra conv

2005 ford explorer (son)
2005 merc mountaineer (other son)
2007 jeep wrangler 4door (still have)
87 928 S4 (still have)

The 66 mustang turned the most heads, the 928 best car yet....
the hummer was amazing off road, felt solid as granite but the jeep has removable top and that trumps everything else.

Honda pilot was boring, but did most everything you could ask very well. best vehicle on snowy roads I've ever driven.

Let's see...

68 Ford Country Squire Wagon, first car bought for $1.00 when turned 16
71 Plymouth Satelite Sebring Plus, hot rod 383 with 2 2bbl carbs.
71 Audi 100 LS, very nice date car.
64 Ford Econoline Van, work truck to carry lawn equipment.
77 Olds Cutlass Salon, college date car.
78 GMC Jimmy 4x4, closest I could bring myself to a pickup truck.
76 Porsche 914 2.0, fun little red sports car
81 GMC Jimmy, 4" lift and mudders, off road fun for a while.
87 Jeep Cherokee, went anywhere the Jimmy would without having to always fix it.
88 Jeep Cherokee Limited, traded in 87 to get rear defroster and cruise.
91 Mazda MPV, to carry R/C planes in.
93 Chevy Astro LS, got to carry brother in wheel chair in.
88 944 Turbo S, got Porsche fever and couldn't find a nice 928.
90 928 GT, took 4 years to find.
01 Boxster S, new, shouldn't have taken it for a test drive.
04 VW Passat, thought I needed a sedan since boxster is only a 2 seater.
05 BMW 325i, much better sedan and didn't hurt my butt to drive.
89 944 Turbo, the boost man, the boost!
07 BMW X3, traded in 325 so could haul some stuff but still sporty 4door.
94 928 GTS, 944 turbo died and I could talk myself out of the Iris Blue Metallic.
