Not really including them as that would balloon the lists for no reason. I prob drove the crown Vic more than the average :plac: encounter but didn’t put it on the list as it is “technically” my dads
:like:

So :rudy: will not have any cars to list? :popcorn:
:dat: but I think if you’re the Majority driver of said vehicle you can include even though you’re a :millennial: hand me down abuser

Dude, get a Fiata. You've only owned VWs, haven't had RWD since the 80s and have never owned a sports car. The GTI is great, but time for a new experience!

Not mine:
-1999 Ford F-150, RWD, 4.6L V8, super cab\
-2003 Ford Ranger 4x4

Mine:
-2000 Ford Focus sedan
-2010 VW GTI oktoberfest fuckup edition
-2017 Subaru WRX STI :wub:
I'd say include them if you were the primary driver :iono:

My Taurus was supplied by my parents, they got it like one year used when I was in kindergarten Image. It had about 230k miles when I was gifted it and about 245k when my dad gave it to my brother because he had no money. At that time they bought new the Civic for $3k and I paid them back for it over the next couple years.

Busted oil pan on the e28, just the best pic of the car I had on hand. Car is long gone. Probably selling the M3 to a local friend trying to throw an S50B30 euro engine in it, but entertaining offers. Text me Griff balls

He has a euro S50B32 swapped into a 97 sedan, he has a euro S50B30 assembled and ready to swap, euro engines are stronger and add a lot of value to the car. My engine is sorted out, runs really strong, he’s just looking for a clean car to swap an engine into.

Just a bit odd to do an engine swap in a notoriously reliable engine in a super low mile car. :yikes:

Other expenses in a household, :doe: Living costs money, especially in the Leafy Suburban Paradise. Also, gotta fund our travel jones. Sacrifices gotta be made somewhere and if I can only have 1 car, then it's hard to argue against a :turboyaris: as the One Car to Rule Them All.

Griff is right, while GTI has been proven to be an excellent car for my needs. Im jumping the vw and fwd ship at the next port.
