Damn Matt...including my first shitty bike I've had a total of four trucks and two bikes (realistically 1 1/2). Let's see what you've had.

First truck:
'84 S10 2.8L Longbed
Got it when I was 15.5, sold after I got married and I was 22.
Dropped it all around but left it with rake. Repainted stock colors. Full sound system. New motor after original threw a rod through the oil pan. New trans. Completely refreshed interior (stock colors, just repadded and recovered.) Front end swap to a 92+.

Second:
'01 S10 4.3L ZQ8
Didn't ever do much as I only owned it 11 months.

Third:
'04 Dodge Ram Hemi 1500 QC
Not listing everything.
As I bought it:

Here are my past vehicles.

My first vehicle was a 1989 Corolla GTS, 1.6L manual. It was a pretty fun and cheap car to drive during high school and much of college. I had a fender bender after a year of driving and ended up buying a $500 Ford Escort GT to drive while I was fixing it. Took a few months since I was in HS and was paying everything out of my pocket. I was glad to be back in the Toyota after driving the Ford. I put about 120k miles on that car in about 4 years, then some 16 year old in a Del Sol T boned me and totaled it.

Took the insurance money and bought a 1997 Ford Explorer, 4.0 V6 4x4. Drove it for about 6 months and could not stand it, biggest POS ever! Another one of the reasons I hate Ford. No pics of this one, it wasn't worthy.

Traded it in on a 2000 Dakota, 4.7L V8 manual. This is the vehicle that I miss the most out of any, I never should have gotten rid of it. There wasn't a single problem with it and it was a blast to drive with the 5 speed, just needed something bigger. It was lowered for most of it's life, I put the rear back to stock and leveled the front a few months before trading it in. Can't find any of those pics. Drove this one for about 2 years and 60k miles.

Traded the Dakota on a 2004 Ram, 4.7L auto. I really liked the look of this truck and it drove great, as long as you weren't pulling anything, it didn't tow for crap. I put in 4.56s and it helped but was never powerful enough for what I wanted. Also, it never got about 14mpg no matter how I drove it. Then one of the heads warped and instead of fixing it, I traded it in after driving it for less than 2 years and about 40k miles.

My wife's fist car was a 2001 Mustang V6 auto (Pictured behind the Dakota above). It was slow and I hated it, but she got it before I met her. Once she finished school and got a job, we bought a 2009 Mustang GT California Special. She drove that for about 2 years and 25k miles until I convinced her to trade it on the Charger.

Now we have the 2010 Ram and 2008 Charger SRT8 and I could not be a happier man. I see no trading vehicles in my immediate future.

That's all for my 10 years of driving. Never really added it up until now, but I have spent over 250k miles on the road in 10 years!

BMRbrnSNRbrd 10-04-2011 09:58 AM

Love the Charger man and you know I like the truck. I don't see myself trading the truck anytime in the near future but I want to get my wife in something else.

agreed... those are slick

BMRbrnSNRbrd 10-04-2011 10:07 AM

It's a toss between the Durango or a new JGC, which she loves.

I've tried to talk to her about it but she just says she's happy for now and doesn't want a higher payment.

BTW Morgan, as much as it pains me to say it, I would drive that '89 Corolla in a heartbeat. What a nice looking little import.

Matt 10-04-2011 10:46 AM

wow i just spent like 20-30 minutes writing out this big long post with all these pictures in it for my dog to lay on my surge protector and kick my computer off ... FML i'll come back to this later
