What have you owned?

Just kinda wanted to see how many cars people have gone through or how many people are true to one manufacturer.

Myself starting at the age of 15
1994 camaro 3.4L V6 (had blown head gasket sold for $500 doubling my money)
1979 dodge power wagon single cab, long bed, 318c.i. (sold axles, kept engine, and then scrapyard, to much rust, still regret)
2001 ford taurus (grandma freebie lol, then totaled, not at fault)
1989 mustang gt convertible 302 5.0L (spun bearing, sold for $1500)
1991 honda accord lx (freebie, got runnin for $25!, but slung a rod a year later and it still ran lol)
1976 F100 single cab short bed, 2wd 360FE big block (still have waiting to do a basic resto)
1998 dodge dakota R/T 360 5.9L extended cab (totaled at fault...oops)
1990 camaro rs, t-tops, 305 5.0L (current car)

and this is from the age of 15 to 20, my future wife will hate me lol
