Arkansas, and also Florida
Grampa Don's post about cars set me to thinking about how many cars or trucks I've owned in my life. I started to make a list and all I can say is Wow... who knew. We've always been gearheads, but, I didn't realize just how into it we were.
Here's a list that still stuns me today.
So, what say you? anyone else as sick as we obviously were?:)

man... so many. where to begin?tops on keepers would have to be the
2 57 chevy convertibles we've had.

This is embarrassing. Only 6, and one was borrowed, so only owned 5, and I didn't pay for 2 of them. :eek:

64 Ford Galaxy (h.s. graduation gift)
67 Ford Mustang (borrowed for a year)
75 Chevy Camaro
80 Honda Civic
86 Ford Ranger
97 Ford F-150 (inherited)
 
I worked at a Ford dealership so I only drove Fords and they were "demos" as I was raising 2 kids by myself and could not afford brand new ones but they would only have around 20,000 miles on them and were new to me. Now that I am retired. I have a 2008 Corolla which has 26,000 actual miles on it and it was a demo with 8,000 miles on it when I bought it. I don't go much anymore so this probably will be the last car I drive.
 
I really don't know. When I was living pay check to pay check, I used to buy the $300 specials. They'd last till the inspection sticker ran out. They're pretty strict in PA with inspections- they wanted you to have things like brakes and lights. My first Brand new car was a Yugo. It spent more time in the shop than on the street. It was fully guaranteed. They spent more fixing it than I paid for it.
 
Here are mine in chronological order of purchase:

48 Plymouth Coupe
60 Renault Dauphine ( piece of crap )
58 Chevy Bel Air ( came with my wife )
61 Ford Falcon Sedan ( got us through active duty )
66 Ford Mustang ( new ) ( celebrated getting out )
69 Ford Falcon Wagon ( new -- lemon ) ( second son arrived )
64 Mercedes 220 ( had to try one -- nice driving car )
69 Volvo 440 ( killer clutch pedal )
76 Dodge Aspen sedan ( first second car for wife )
78 Dodge Aspen wagon ( work car )
84 Honda Accord ( wife's car )
89 Honda Accord ( new ) ( also wife's car )
84 Chrysler Town & Country ( work car )
95 Jeep Cherokee ( new -- wife's car ) ( money pit )
97 Ford Escort wagon ( still driving it )
03 Ford Escape ( new -- wife's car )
13 Ford Escape ( new - wife's car )

Some of these overlap

Can't remember them all

Well now... That's a difficult question, seeing as how hubby was a "car guy".

I remember the special ones, the "customs":
50 Chevy convert, tuck and roll leather int., carson top, electric drs
51 Merc 2 dr (I loved it)
56 Ford p/up.. was a beauty..
34 Ford 5 wdow coupe ..we kicked ourselves for selling it. :-(

currently, I have:
68 AMX
46 Ford Delivery
34 Ford sedan, 2 dr
60 Ford Starliner
68 Ford 3/4 ton p/up
98 Chrysler Sebring

(My son also has his 54-56 Ford p/up stored here. I've drawn a blank on the exact year.)
