You know when you are a redneck when...

1) You mow the lawn and find a car
2) The car on blocks in your yard collapses and kills at least 5 dogs
3) lawn furniture is made up of the front seat of a late model ford pickup
4) you invite your brother-in-law over to help you change the wheels.... on you house!

Well You asked!!!


Back on topic:
1) '83 Toyota Celica
2) '87 Alfa Romeo Milano (have the hood ornament in a frame on the wall)
3) '99 VW Jetta GL
4) '01 Nissan XTerra
5) '94 Geo Metro (I had NOTHING to do with that... wife had it when we met)

Cool list. A lot of ragtops. Were any of those that are not so obvious convertibles too? No convertible MINI?

Cars I've owned from age 16:

1971 Chevy Vega (yes they were as bad as you've been told)

1973 Dodge Dart Demon 318 2bbl 3 on the tree no less...

1976 Chevy Monte Carlo Real road cruiser and chick magnet for it's day.

1977 ScoutII SSII (Had to get the 4x4 thing out of my system.) This vehicle could litterally climb trees. Wish I still had it. It's not one of those SUV/4x4 wantabees of today.

1985 Honda Civic S 3-door The last year for Hondas carbureted engines. This was my first brand new car. Drove the wheels off it with 257,000 miles. That little car is why I own a Mini today.

1996 Volvo 960 My second new car. Beautiful rear wheel drive European car. Way too many build problems and reliability issues with the car had to give it up.

1997 Toyota T100 SR5 Yes it is a bit underpowered, yes it is not really a full size truck, but just enough HP and room for me. This truck has had zero problems from day one. Still own it today just rolled 109,000 miles.

2000 Lexus ES300 well it's the wife's car what can I say.

2003 MINI Cooper S My Honda Civic with 100 more horsepower. Best driving car I've ever owned. Hope to get the same mileage as the Civic.

1960's era; 1964 VW bug, 1960 VW bus and 1966 Plymouth Valiant, the small one, not the big MOPAR. (they were family owned, but mine to drive) and this 3 wheel, two passenger, 3 speed service truck vehicle from Japan, plus my own 3 wheel Cushman MailCart.

1970's era; 1970 Datsun Pickup, propane powered, what can I say? Dad owned a trailer park. 1970 and 1964 VW Westfalia Campers, 1970's Opel Kadette SW, 1970 VW Station Wagon, and 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger, there was a 4 door Chevy Imapala or Malibu in there.

1980's era; One only, 1970 something Volvo something that I got rid of in a divorce and all the rest for that era were TWO WHEELS only, 4 or 5 motorcycles as primary and only transportation.

1990's era, One 1978 VW camper, 1970 Clark Cortez Big 455 Olds V8 Motorhome, 1980 Revcon Motorhome, and a bunch of motorcycles.

21st Century, 2000 decade, so far,back to 4 wheels, 1999 Ford Escort, 2002 VW Jetta, 2003 VW Passat, 2005 Passat Station Wagon (back to VW's for awhile), 1997 Mercury Sable, bought from MOM, and now the pride and joy,

2006 MCS listed below...,

How'd I do?? I probably forgot at least a couple of them, it was the 1960's and 70's...
