Age 37 TODAY!!
Birthday Girl

Here is my list:

1983 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup- bought it to help out parents on the farm...hated it...brother got to drive it and tore it up

1984 Z28- my baby. Had it custom painted for my graduation present to myself. I loved this car. Dark Blue

1983 Chevy Cavalier- bought so I didn't have to drive my Z28 to the rough streets of Houston while I was in college. Let my boyfriend (who is now my husband) drive my Z28 cause he had sold his truck that he wrecked. BIG MISTAKE!!! Did not treat the Z28 right and I took it back and ended up trading cars with him.


1990 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup (husbands truck)

1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee Dark Green 10 years since my own new car...I treat them with love and respect!

1996 Corvette...red of course! This one is sweet. 15,000 miles on her. She stays in storage. I am in Las Vegas now on a job and ready to get home and put a coat of NXT on her and see how she looks! This is really my husbands car...but I do all the detailing on it.AWESOME CAR!

2001 Toyota Tundra. This is my truck that replaced my jeep and our truck. It is a nice truck with lots of extras on it.

2002 Toyota 4runner. Husband now drives the truck and bought me the 4runner so I would have something to drive while we are on the road. We bought it used 2 months ago with 20,000 miles on it. It is silver with a beautiful shine thanks to NXT!

[Bri9801]

I have a short list as well......30 here.

88 Hyundai Excel......First car that wasn't my parents....Shared it with my brother till he smacked it up and totaled it.

Moved on to a 88 Dodge Daytona....Was a fun car but for some reason the front end sat high and we could never figure it out so it always looked like there was about 1,000 pounds in the trunk. Again shared with my brother till the engine burst into flames while he was driving it. That sealed the deal, no more sharing cars with him.

I then took my girlfriends (she is now my wife) 96 Saturn SL2. That was a good car....She bought it new and we drove it for 120,000 miles.....We took it everywhere, it didn't owe us a cent.

When I took that we bought her a 99 Kia Sportage which she still has...UGH I hate this car.....we are trading it soon, if I don't blow it up first. SHe is looking at the Honda Pilot or the Toyota Highlander...until tommorrow when she changes her mind

I took the Saturn and traded it for a 98 Ford Expedition. I love this truck and it was what started me on the detail craze.

[Elite M.D.]

Here are mine-

I am 19 right now...

2000 Chevy Xtreme. This was my first ride and bought it new. It was and ext cab, black, with the 2.2L engine and automatic. No power windows, locks...
I sued GM under the California Lemon Law because it had a launching shutter. GM settled out of court and gave me all my money back. With that I bought my next ride.

2002 Chevy Silverado. Even after the problems with the Xtreme I stayed with Chevy What can I say, I am a GM guy. I have customized my truck quite a bit and it is for sale right now.

Next truck... 2004 GMC Sierra

[Rick]

I'm only 20 so the history is limited.

1995 Chevy Tahoe
then
2002 Honda Insight

At 85K on the Tahoe I managed to blow the rear end up while just driving. 6 teeth shreaded off of the ring gear! And it was quite guttless too I will mention, so I still don't know how I managed to do that. Then after that was rebuilt the next day the transmission decided to fail on me. So I have that rebuilt, not 200 miles later the new transmission implodes itself. This I think I'd have to blame on the tranny shop, they did warranty it luckily. They got a core out of a wrecking yard to rebuild, get it done, put it in (and mind you the transfer case has come out every time they do this) and realize there's a hair line crack in it so they had to do it again. So on transmission #4 (technically) at around 90K miles I decide it's a bad omen and don't really want to know whats going to break next and sell it. That prompted me to go to the opposite extreme as you can tell by the vehicle selection.

[Airborne Ranger]

Name: Mike
Age: 20, soon to be 21 in April. Here's my list

1984 Buick Estate Station Wagon. Had a 350 4bbl. Dope ride/pimp mobile. Dual straights for the exhaust and a leather interior. Bought this tank for $400 and ran it for a yr 1/2 before the engine seized due to lacking of oil changes

1991 Ford F150 4x4. The best truck I ever owned, more so than my Ranger. Bought this thing for $2500, had 117K miles and looked perfect! No rust, no bondo! very well kept! Had 141K when I got done with it about 2 yrs later because the torque converter went south.

Currently my 98 Ranger. Bought this for $4750 at a dealer. Was originally $5995 but we found a few minor things wrong with it. It's good truck, I try to keep up with it but I still miss my F150 sometimes

Dream truck: Either a Ford F-250 with basic options and I mean basic as in vinyl flooring, cloth bench seat 5spd V8 or diesel I really like the look of the basic F250's more so than the decked out ones. Just looks more truck like

Chevy2500HD: 8.1L V8 4x4, CD player that's it!! Basic as they come.
