Just how many cars do you have, exactly??
The RSX is on the chopping block. I want to get a more dedicated sports car, since I'm privelaged enough to own multiple vehicles.
The Outback and Volvo are wrecked title purchases from copart that I'll get salvage titles for, then enjoy for a bit before selling to break even, or even for a possible profit.
The crown vic is my beater. I drift it. I take it on logging roads. I take it on the Gambler 500. It's fucking awesome. I'll always have one, probably.
The Loyale is something I've wanted since highschool. I love the push button 4WD. I love how comically slow it is. I love the interior. I get quite a few compliments on it. It needs some work, but that's part of the fun. I dunno if I'll own it forever, but I really like the thing.
I, as of recently, own my grandpa's 1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale. I've gotten similar compliments to the Loyale on it. My grandpa is about two weeks away from dying of cancer. I'll own that car forever.
My partner owned a Spectra5 when I met her. It's our economy car, which every household needs. I'd like to upgrade it to a Volt at some point.
I definitely own too many vehicles, but I love the variety and unique characteristics of each of them.
Sort of related, but I'm not one of those dickish gearheads, I use and support public transport, and think that the world as a whole would be better off with fewer cars. If one doesn't want to drive, then they shouldn't fucking have to.
Hey don't let me take your fun away from you. I just think it's an unusual amount of cars, but if you enjoy it then that's great! Sounds pretty cool tbh
