Hi :wave: I'm new here but have (along with reading posts about flashlights until my eyes fall out) have really enjoyed reading this thread :thumbsup: .

There are some pretty eccentric rides on here ... so I should fit right in :devil: . My current ride (although if you see me around town here in Michigan, it will likley be with the top down):

I am alternating between the family Astra and Focus at the moment, and actually looking after an IS200 for my fiancé's cousin... I've sold the fun cars I had, but here they are....:

Nissan Primera 2.0 eGT - My first car, and the one I miss the most. Got totalled by an idiot who didn't stop for the traffic light like the rest of us:

BMW E30 325is - Started as a 318is, but had a 2.5 litre 6 pot engine conversion. Yum:

Thats a full load of black locust in the bed, probably 4,000-5,000 pounds easy, plus the trailer.

People think I am crazy driving my 350 everywhere - I have an 80mi round trip to work. Right now the gas savings of a smaller car just doesnt outweigh the cost of the car and I would loose my 'ready for anything' kind of ability. Plus most small cars that get good mpg are FWD and a PITA to work on, so I'll stick to my trucks that are tough as nails and I can fix just about anything that could go wrong, and it can haul or tow just about anyhting I could want. Oh we also have a Lexus, but I really could care less about it so wont even post about it :p

Nice Cub Cadet! They don't make lawn tractors like that anymore.

Nope.. Only east coast..Mainly around Summit Point Raceway in W. VA. Did a race school at Daytona when I was 66 years old, did another one at Virgina International Raceway in VA, started racing when I was 67.

You can do it, all you need is desire!! ;)

Looking at your wheels makes me even more sad...

This was my pride and joy until I rolled it on the Motorway during bad weather.... Look away if you don't want to see a mangled wreck.

And a lack of fear of pain helps as well...I don't get over bumps and bruises as easily as I did when I was younger. :duh2:

Wrong! ;) When it comes to be timid, from 1 to 10, with 10 being the most timid, I am at least a 20!! No kiddin.. Desire is the key.. I should teach a school on this!! ;) Desire, makes one learning curve very, very fast..

Back on topic, some of my cars.. ;) Only drive 2 seaters with stick shifts..;)

1985 Madza GSLSE, Mindtrain full exhaust, Tokico Adjustable shocks/struts all around, ST sway bars, no cats,

1988 Madza Turbo II, Tokico shocks/struts all around, RB full exaust, no cats, ;)
