    First car: 1985 Isuzu trooper 2-door with the 4-banger diesel. 4wd 5-spd manual. Back when diesel was cheaper than gas. Blew that thing up towing a 2500lb sea-Ray about 4 hrs. Loved that thing though. Was epic on the beach and obviously got great mpgs.

    -2000 Silverado z71 (stolen, driven through a Hardee's window, totaled).

    -99 Ford F-350 7.3 power stroke with a bully dog and superchip stacked. Straight pipe right off the turbo. Could smoke the 35" tires rolling at 25mph. Sold it as it wasn't car-seat friendly. Torque monster though.

    -2005 GMC Sierra z71 crew cab. Motor went last august and here I am with my Tundra.
    IMG_4470.jpg

    The 20 yr old redneck in me still loves that powerstroke. But the tundra is far and away the best truck I've ever owned.

    I'm not sure I can go back that far....but I will give it a crack.

    High School time
    -1970 Chevelle, 350, auto
    -1972 Nova big block car
    -1982 Chevy short box
    -1984 Ford Escort. Needed fuel economy due to prior three vehicles (still owned at the time), only Ford I have ever owned.
    -ZX-7 Sport Bike. I put smoothbore carbs on it, punched it out, and it was stupid fast for a kid in HS.

    Military time:
    1988 Z-24, fun little car, but was totaled in a high speed crash in the desert in Southern California.
    1992 Camaro. Had a lot of fun with this car in CA.
    1995 GSXR-750

    Single time
    -1995 Honda accord. This lasted about 2 months. I figured the insurance and fuel economy would have been better. Insurance went up by a lot due to the theft issue, and since the car was heavy and 4 cylinder, it was pretty crappy on fuel.
    -1991 IROC-Z This was the police interceptor car, aluminum driveshaft etc. This was an ok car stock, but let me tell you, when adding about 5500.00 in aftermarket parts...holy hell. I was caught in a 55 mph zone in excess of 143 mph. I drove away without a ticket, and traded the car in the next day. The Captain said I received the "ballerina award" that day. I had plenty of pedal left...
    -1995 Chevy 1500 Silverado.
    -1995 Toyota 4Runner limited. Good vehicle, just no ass and it sucked offroad.
    -1999 Toyota Tacoma TRD. One of my favorite all time trucks.

    Married time
    -I inherited a 2000 Toyota Tacoma TRD in marriage. This is how we met. I was supposed to install a bed liner in her truck. We met through a friend of a friend. I ended up taking her up Snowboarding the next day, nine months later we were hitched. It would have been on my birthday (9-11), but decided that was to soon and didn't want my birthday and anniversary on the same day. Good call, we were married in 2001. I finally got around to installing the bed liner after we were married.
    -2001 Suzuki Esteme. This car does nothing for your self esteem...trust me. However, as a commuter car, it was cheap, great warranty I never used in 10 years, 100K+ miles. Most reliable car I have ever owned.
    -1999 Jeep TJ Wrangler. We purchased this to stop offloading our nice trucks. I was hooked. You can totally trash these things.
    -2005 Dodge 2500 CTD. This was a POS.
    -2006 Audi A4 Quattro
    -2006 4Runner limited
    -2002 Dodge 2500 HO-POS
    -2003 Jeep Wrangler TJ Rubicon. Needed to replace the 1997 TJ that I hauled off to scrap.
    -2002 Pontiac FireHawk TransAm. Heavily modded.
    -2012 Grand Sport Corvette
    -2012 Toyota Tundra. One of my favorite trucks for day to day use.
    -2014 Toyota Tacoma Sport Longbed.
    -2007 Lexus IS350 commuter car.
    -2016 GMC SLT 3500. Panty dropper.

    I think that is about it.....

    24 years old, GAF=0, high speed testing, blew by an unmarked cop at 142 mph and climbing. He couldn't get one of his officers out to arrest me, and had a meeting to go to. That is when he said I got the ballerina award since I danced my way in and out of trouble.

    Funny, I met the guy that purchased the car, and he was pulled over all the time.

    Yup. Pretty Woman caught my attention. Basic Instinct confirmed I was getting one. Just took 8 years after that to finally get one.

    My daily driver before the 2016 Tundra was this 2005 Acura RL. That was the most trouble free car I owned and fun to drive. The only down side was it got terrible mileage in the city - 14 mpg. Pure highway was 25 mpg.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    I'm not gonna list all the vehicles I've owned but I will say that my daily driver previous to the Tundra I own now was a 2006 Lexus ES 350 w/ every option the factory offers. It was a pretty nice car until the idiot in a dodge ram rammed my buddy and I coming back from a 4-day shoot out at Front Sight.
