And this song was on the radio, May 1997.

High beam only. Drove it from Meridian to Big Spring sometime after midnight. Pulled over in Hico to get a hotel room and there was a family reunion and no place to stay. I said 'screw it' and just kept on driving.

That pickup had been dimpled in a hail storm in Stanton, and then mauled by a bump gate in Sonora. It was blowing a little smoke by 160,000 miles. The deer just finished it off. We had the front end replaced and sent it to the auction in El Paso. I think that it still brought $3500.

197? Kawaski 90
197? Honda CB360 (car hit me. Totaled the bike. Me in traction for a week with a broken pelvis)
69 LeMans (replaced the bike and started as my A&M ride, until someone ran a stop sign and totaled it, so then I got my ...)
Maroon F-100 (replaced LeMans)
82 F150 (1st new vehicle, when I graduated from A&M)
87 Vette
8? Audi
9? Isuzu p-up (driving home one night. 3 AM, crossing Brazos river back in '99. Someone left the car "dead" (no flashers, nothing) in the right hand lane. It was a no moon, overcast night. Didn't see it until it was too late. Totaled the truck, I was fine, just pizzed)
85 Trans Am (replaced Isuzu. Bought if off my mom. Would have rather had her 77 T-Am big block, but some fricken thief stole it from her. Hence why she had the 85 T-AM)
96 F-250 7.3 (wish I still had that truck)
2000 Sable (the "Turtle")
09 F-150 (still have it)
201? Stang (daughter's 1st college car until she wrecked it and now she has ....)
2010 Corolla (still have it, daughter's college car)
2013 Mazda 3 (still have it, son's car)
8 different classes of race cars (still have one)
2012 H-D Road King

I have a problem

that old corolla commercial is awesome

Not including the cars I've bought for my wife.

1. 1962 Chevy C10 with a 350 V8. It was a project truck and eventually got it running, but still needed more money than I had as a kid. Sold it off to buy...

2. 1965 Ford F100, two tone paint job. Had a 390 dropped in and the column shifter was converted to the floor. Drove it for years but needed something more reliable before college.

3. 1997 Jeep TJ sport 4.0L. Black on Black (I may have started the black rim thing ahead of its time). Lifted, mud terrains, rhino lined inside, sweet ride. Still to this day curse myself for getting rid of it.

4. 1994 F150 extended bab with the 5.8 windsor. Beautiful two tone truck and the exterior and upholstery was in perfect condition. Loved that truck. Sold it off when the transmission started going out.

5. 2003 Nissan frontier crew cab with the longer bed. Fun truck that was pretty much given to me.

6. 2012 Toyota Tundra. My first brand new purchase. Great truck, should have kept it (recurring theme).

7. 2014 F150 5.0L V8. It's had its share of problems, but its running well now and new truck prices are hurting my heart. I'll probably keep it for another couple years.

Next vehicle will be a 3/4 ton.

1985 Dodge Aries

1974 Jeep CJ-5 REnegade 4WD Manual transmission

1996 Isuzu Trooper 4WD Manual transmission

1989 Ford Bronco - wrong year and not a commercial, but all I could find was a **** ton of Ford Bronco II stuff and not much for the fullsize. 4WD auto

2001 Nissan Maxima 5 Speed Manual

1978 Dodge Champion RV - wrong year, wrong model, whatever

1999 Chevy Suburban 2500 4x4

2006 Mazdaspeed6 - Couldn't find a commercial. Manual transmission

2005 Nissan Xterra - 4WD Manual Transmission

1992 Holiday Rambler Alumalite RV

2005 Nissan Titan - 4WD Auto

2005 Ford Excursion - couldn't find a real commercial. I also bullet proofed mine. Mine had many cosmetic flaws though.

2006 Honda Accord EX V6 6 speed - couldn't easily find a good 2006 commercial, prefer this because I had this same rare optioned sedan. Manual 6 speed.

1996 Toyota Land Cruiser - Triple Locked, upgraded bumpers, sliders, lift

2005 Fleetwood Bounder

2005 Honda CR-V - ****box to tow behind RV only

2016 Chevrolet SS - Manual Transmission Regal Peacock Green

Wife:

Honda Pilot after first kid
Two Odysseys, both wrecked, and a Pacifica as kids 2 and 3 join us and are still young

Started with hand me down from the old man for my first truck as well. Listed the miles they had when traded.

2003 F-250 6.0: 295,000

2012 F-150 5.0: 34,000

2015 f-250 6.7: 4,500

2015 Tacoma 4.0: 40,000

2017 Tundra 5.7: Current truck

1977 Ford Mustang - 302 4 speed - fun car but cost me a lot in gas and insurance. Was constantly repairing it, especially when it kept overheating.

1993 Toyota Pickup - 4 cylinder 5 speed- dependable and great. Sold it too early at 130k miles

2001 Toyota Tacoma - 6 cylinder 5 speed 4x4 - loved this truck but wasn't family friendly. Most stupid decision was getting rid of it as my son would probably love this in a few years. Biggest regret getting rid of it.

2003 Honda Accord - v6 automatic - great acceleration and nice car, but it was accident prone. Happy to get rid of it. The v6 was just not as reliable as the 4 cylinder,

2011 Tahoe - great travel vehicle and it feels sturdy and safe. Very pleased with it and overall it's been a very reliable vehicle. I don't feel like I get upsold on additional service - just do routine maintenance and the bare minimum. Has 80k today and I'm thinking of keeping long term. Great family vehicle.

2017 Honda Accord - 4 cylinder sport - looks nice and decent acceleration. It's no frills. Only got it because the 2003 died and needed something (had a friend at dealership). It's ok but if it went away I wouldn't care. Someone hit it within 3 months of buying so I was happy I didn't spend a lot. I guess the Honda accident prone carries on.

Dream Car - 68 Dodge Charger or an old pickup truck. I'll eventually get one as a "play" car, but not until I have the garage space for it.

1983 Chevy 1/2 ton 4x4 Fall Guy like truck. 383 high performance stroker, 850 Holley double pumper carb, edelbrock high intake manifold, Hooker high performance headers, High performance Crane Cam, 3.73 gears, Borla true H exhaust, TH 400 transmission with shift kit. Dana 4x4 locks. Still have the truck.

1997 Ford F-350 crew cab 4x4 Eddie Bauer 7.3 powerstroke 5 speed manual. Still have this truck.

2006 Ford F-250 crew cab Lariat 4x4 5 speed manual powerstroke 6.0L

2012 Ford F-250 Crew Cab Lariat 4x4 6.7 Powerstroke

2016 Ford F-250 Crew Cab Platnium 4x4 6.7 Powerstroke - current truck

2016 Ford Expedition EL 4x4 3.5L Ecoboost - current family SUV

Dream Car would be a 67 GT 500 Super Snake Shelby Mustang

Next project is to fix up a 67 Ford pickup

1999 Ford Explorer Sport (2 Door)
- this one bounced around for a while between myself and my sisters. By the time I got it the second time around, only the drivers door worked and no power anything except steering. Drove it for the better part of 2 years while in school.
2006 Dodge Charger
- drove it like I stole it everywhere I went. Best memory was racing it up and down HWY 47 between 60 and 21 and pissing off a 3 series numerous times.
2004 Chevy Avalanche (current)
- Love this one. No issues and probably won't be getting rid of it soon as has been relagated to weekend/grocery duty. Perks of a company vehicle to take all the brunt of my abuse.

Updated due to "do you have a type"

69 MGBGT - Manual, fun car, got lot's of attention. Wrecked it jr. year of HS.
93 Isuzu Trooper 4WD - Another fun manual. Didn't own (mom's), but drove sr. year of HS.
86 Silverado - 2 fuel tanks, and burned through both very quickly. Ah, I miss long beds...
81 F150 - Only drove briefly; swapped trucks with my dad a few times.
87 Dakota - not a bad little truck. Made it from BCS to Pennsylvania and back for the summer.
96 Silverado - Loved this truck. Somehow my stepbrother still drives it.
Married into an 02 Saturn - Young, poor, and newly married. Did a lot of self repairs on it till it crapped out around 180K.
2010 Town & Country - First family vehicle. Good memories. Great powertrain. Messed up electrical and brake systems.
2012 Fusion - Going strong-ish at 235K miles. Looking forward to going back to a truck.
2019 Pilot - Wife's car. So far so good.
