What have you driven in your lifetime?

[97XJ2]

I thought it would be cool to start a new thread and see what everyone has driven/owned since this is going on a little bit in the "Bar Fight" thread. I'm sure some of you have had some sweet or interesting rides.

Only four and two wheeled road going motor vehicles, I'm leaving out 4-wheelers, snowmobiles, boats and airplanes etc. Pics are welcome!

To keep the list short (for now) I'll only list ones that I actually had decent seat time in, not ones where my buddy let me rip around in something for an afternoon.

I'll get this rolling with family/personal and work vehicles.

In chronological order best as I can remember.

1980 GMC Jimmy
1974 Pontiac Grand Am
1990 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer
1996 International Chassis, Thomas Coach school bus
1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais

[97XJ2]

We have? My mistake then, I did do a quick search to see if anything popped up.

 

[bmyohn]

I havent driven anything really all that exciting but here what I can remember driving.

1. 01 XJ
2. 00 XJ
3. 00 XJ
4. 88 MJ
5. 01 Dodge Ram 2500 CTD
6. 99 TJ
7. 87 CJ-7
8. 95 YJ
9. 95 GC
10. 11 GC (5 different ones that my dad has gotten as a loaner)
11. 09 Infiniti G37s
12. 01 Volvo C70
13. 03 Toyota Sequoia
14. 01 Trailblazer
15. 07 FJ Cruiser
16. 99 Toyota Tacoma
17. 99 Dodge Neon
18. 01 Ford Ranger
19. 06 F250 Powerstroke
20. 04 Duramax
21. Various Kubota Tractors
22. 95 Chevy 1500
23. 92 F-150
24. 01 Tacoma
25. An old John Deere Orchard Tractor

The John Deere is probably probably the coolest thing I have ever driven, just because of its extremely short and narrow wheelbase (orchard tractors have to be able to fit in between the rows of trees obviously) and high torque output.


That’s the first 25, probably the most boring and bland list of vehicles ever driven, but not bad for being 20 I suppose. As for owning, I own the 01 XJ, 88 MJ, and 01 Dodge, (I kinda owned a 00 XJ as well lol)

Mine-
