I've had somewhere in the neighborhood of 35 cars and trucks.

My favorite type is a rear wheel drive, manual transmission convertible.

My first real GF had a 64 1/2 Mustang Convertible with a 289 and a 3 speed manual -- she let me drive most of the time.

That kind of thing will hook you for life...like a Bob Seger song.

V8s, 4x4s and diesels…'cause…America!


Otherwise, I like random stuff like karman Ghias, alfas, early 90s Range Rovers and diesel merc sedans.

Big fan of the two car garage: one for utility, one for fun.

But the wife got tired of my auto mistresses, so I'm down to one car at the moment (A4 Allroad).

Hard to believe I've been on this site for 18+ years.

I initially joined TexAgs just to talk about the road trip a BQ buddy and I took to Clemson when we played them in Football back in Fall 2005. As the site developed more sub-topic boards, I found a lot of opportunities to learn, share knowledge and occasionally have some fun trolling posters who needed to have their minds blown.

I've always enjoyed the Automotive Board the most and I've even gotten to meet a few posters from here IRL. CanyonAg77, The Fife, TrinityAg and a couple others. We've also lost a few notables - Spicewood & BQ68 come to mind.

While the real number of posts is probably a few more due to posts that I've had deleted regarding a sensitive topic on the Politics Board, for this milestone post, I want to ask a question that's been rolling around in my mind for a month or so while walking through my new neighborhood in Galveston.

The question is - Do you have a type?

Obviously it applies to men's selection of females but does it also apply to cars?

What got me to thinking about this is, there is a guy in my neighborhood who has a Dark Blue 1999 4x4 Ford F-150 short bed. He just bought a Dark Blue 2024 4x4 Ford F-150 short bed.
ETA: Both of the F-150s are XL trim, Single Cab

The guy bought the exact same vehicle 25 years apart.

My last 5 vehicle purchases have all been 4x4 SUVs of some sort.
So I'm wondering if any of y'all are like that and purchase the same vehicle multiple times?


6 Camaros
1 Mustang

Some other stuff along the way. But I prefer V8, rear wheel driven cars
