I forgot my other cars.

1st car 1981 Isuzu Diesel pickup

1982 Volkswagen Rabbit

1982 Mercury Lynx

1995 Ford Broncho

2003 GMC 1500 Sierra SLE

And my current vehicle 2013 Ford F150 XLT

Technically the SRT Charger is my wife's daily rig.

Love the Scat Pack!!! Almost skipped the SRT and got the Scat Pack 392 Shaker Challenger, but the wife wanted another Charger.

Gas mileage? 27.3 mpg today on a trip at 65 - 70 mph. It ran on four cylinders most of the trip. Pretty cool! Our 2007 Charger SRT only got 19-21 mpg on the freeway.

4 wheels will move your ***, 2 wheels will move your soul….

Very true - had an '03/'04, can't quite remember, Nicki Hayden. A true beast of a machine. Much more race bike than street. Even after ZX14, Busa, Gsxr 1000 the RC had me thinking of my mortality. Sold it. The Duc Killer ---

 

The Hayden bike was a 2004. One Litre Duc Eater

Sad day when I sold it... to this day the best handling motorcycle I have ever had... and I have had many many motocycles.

 

Sweet……are those factory rims?

1st - 1965 Dodge Coronet handed down from a great Uncle & Aunt to my mom, then me.  Low mileage but dents in every panel.

2nd - 1970 2-door Buick Skylark that I spent WAY TOO MUCH money and time converting to a Buick GS...hood, emblems, you name it.  I should have been spending more time with the chicks.  She was my Christine at the time.

 

no point in boring you all with the rest....

 

now,

1998 Honda Accord with 233k miles and a 2002 Suburban 4x4 with only 98k.

1st car ever was a 1976 Buick Century, then a 72 Chevelle, 73 Grand Prix, 77 Grand Prix, 77 Camaro, 65 Eldorado Convertible, 65 Box Nova, 70 Nova, 72 Eldorado convertible (twice), 65 Bonneville convertible, 70 Bonneville convertible, 70 Grand Prix, 79 Monte Carlo, 41 Plymouth Rat Rod, 69 Firebird, 67 Plymouth Satellite,81 Grand Prix, 1950 Cadillac Hearse, and a few more...............Now I drive a Pontiac Montana minivan and a Ford Explorer sport.

Whoa, Cadillac Hearse???????????

So there has to be a great story about that. You are in good company, Neil Young had a Buick Roadmaster hearse that he drove down from Canada to LA and met Stills.

So what is the story on that hearse.

My car history is pretty short...

[2007 - 2010] '98 Mercury Sable LS <-- I got this at 223,000 miles and had it up to 253,000. It's still driving today.

[2010 - 2015] '06 Ford Taurus SEL <-- I got this at 44,500 miles, it currently has 95,000.

[2015 - ????] '15 Ford Fusion SE <-- This is my first new car (probably my only), I got the keys at 424.8 miles.

My '06 Taurus and '15 Fusion are in these pics. The '06 Taurus remains in the family's possession as my mom's ride.

Nice thread and cars Trent. 

 

Don't keep up much with cars any longer though I did help the lady friend test drive a lot of SUVs and crossovers.  We drove the BMW X-3, Subaru Outback, Nissan Murano, Cadillac, Acura RDX, before buying the Volvo T-6.

 

Are they still making the Viper?

 

Great photos guys!  Some nice rides.
