drove a 98 honda civic
a 92 buick roadmaster
and last (but still have it)
84 jeep CJ-7
 
Started out with a 1983 Camaro 305 5spd T-tops Posi beautiful car, 180,000kms on it






Sold that when I found it wasn't the best in the winter (go figure) and picked up a 1994 Lincoln Town Car has 216,000kms on it and I still have it although i'm thinking of selling it (buyers:p )



And of course my new Patriot with only 2500kms on it!

 
Gee, do you really want me to list the 25+ cars I've owned since '55? Thought not!
But I did like my '98 Chev S10 with all the goodies. Got 135K miles without any serious problems. Sold it after 10 years to buy the Patriot! My dog misses the Chev worse than me--she "owned" the front seat, but now there's a barrier on the Patriot, keeping her in the rear!
 
before the Pat means for me what i´m still driving:
An Opel Zafira B:

Here next to my old Zafira A i traded in for the B model:

Lets see
1985 Ford F150 4x4
1986 Ford F350 longbed extendacab dually
1993 Ford Mustang (sold the dually, but kept the F150 4x4)
1995 Ford Explorer ( totalled the mustang, traded the F150)
2003 Chevy 2500HD crew 4x4 (sold the Explorer)
2008 Jeep Patriot ( traded the 2500hd)

For a long time I had 2 vehicles just for me. It was kinda nice and I was single.
I really wish I hadn't totalled the mustang, it was a police package and was nice.
The 2500hd got 10mpg all the time with maybe 11mpg on highway at 65mph.
I only work 7.5 miles from the house, but my parents and friends are 100 miles away so it was like $75 in gas to visit them. Which meant I didn't......

'05 Kia Rio was my second car (Hated it...hence the Elantra GT)
'03 Mitsubishi Galant (Traded in for the Tucson)
'02 HyundaiElantra GT
'01 Chrysler Neon
'99 Jeep Cherokee Classic (really a gas pig)

Still love the Tucson, and I really love my new Patriot...it reminds me of my '99 Cherokee a little.
