    Interesting to see how many screen names reflect people's cars, not their bikes! This answered some wondering about names (e.g GregOREO).

    Best to worst

    1999 Audi A4 Avant chipped from 150 hp to 205.
    It made such a difference and that car drove so well, especially in the snow.

    2004 Nissan Titan LE Crew Cab.
    I can't believe I've had this for 4 years. I just can't get rid of it yet.

    2003 WRX exhaust, up-pipe, cold air intake, sold it to my brother in law who chipped it. 300 hp now. Super fun but a step backwards in luxury from the Audi.

    2005 Lincoln Navigator

    2004 VW Toureg

    1999 Jeep Cherokee Limited

    1991 Ford Escort

    In chronological order:
    '76 Ford Econoline van
    '78 Buick Skylark (3.8 V-6 POS!)
    '86 Dodge Charger Shelby edition (2.2 turbo wolf in sheep's clothing)

    '92 Hyundai S-coupe (great gas mileage, cheap to fix and my MTB fit in the trunk; I kinda miss it. Totaled in a rear-end collision on the way to a Blink 182 concert...funny story)

    '97 Honda CBR 900RR (crotch-rocket, lived up to it's name, and got stolen :()

    '03 Honda RC-51 (loved this bike and miss it more than anything; also stolen:()

    '79 Mercedez Benz 450SE. "Grey market" European car. Bought sans motor and trans for $200 and dropped in a 429 Ford motor complete with a C-6 trans. A HUGE CAR that would smoke ANY import, Mustang or any Chevy 305-powered vehicle. Yeah, I did a little "racing" with this one.

    '92 Mazda B3000 (essentially a Ford Ranger with Mazda clothing)

    '69 Dodge Dart Swinge (still have it. It's rusting at Grampa's house until I finish scholl)

    '98 Jeep Cherokee Classic (Current ride. LOVE IT except for the gas mileage, but everything I want in a vehicle right now)

    Dude, I DIG that wagon! :bang:

    Best car: any station wagon cause bikes go in back and the gas mileage ain't bad.

    Yeah, that's what it was I had...69 Dart Swinger -- slant six...cannot kill it. Bought it cheap for a short time need, sold it cheap -- it got passed from starving student to student -- last I heard it was in Santa Cruz with a spray can graffitti paint job -- there was a photo taped inside the trunk of a girl who had once owned it -- kinda like a Madonna (Mary, not the singer) good luck shrine. Hope it's still running somewhere...
