    Default How many

    Hi folks,

    This came up in another forum so I thought I would try it here.

    How many total vehicles have you owned in your lifetime?

    In 61 yrs I've owned over 30; 4 wheels, 3 wheels & 2 wheels.

    I did a tally a few weeks ago. I am currently 50 and have been driving 32 years. Over those 32 years I have owned and driven 20 cars, 7 trucks, 11- 2 wheeled bikes, and 2- 3 wheeled spyders. Total to date is 40 vehicles, and always on the lookout for the next one.

    I will just say lots of cars and motorcycles plus five spyders. I started in 1965 and have been making purchases almost yearly. One or the other. Happy to say that the last ten years or so pretty much everything has been cash. No interest payments for the banks. I am now getting to the point where I think I am pretty much done with new toys. But...we will see.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I've been driving 50 years, so I'll have to give it a lot of thought. I'm not sure I'll remember them all.

    How could you have possibly started driving, before you were even born?
