Well as of this past Monday, 4. Bought a new car Monday for my lovely wife. 2013 Ford Focus. She loves it. We had been planning on getting a new car for her anyway this spring. Have a 1994 Ford Ranger still going strong with a little over 107K on it. Its the "house" vehicle. Does the runs to Home Depot/Lowes, hauls crap around, yard waste, etc. I love having a small truck around the house, its very useful. Have a 2000 Dodge Neon with over 234K miles. Its pretty worn out, I have to decide by the end of July if I am keeping it on the road. (Tags due then) Its needs some work, but is drivable. I'll probably keep it for another few years since it won't cost me that much. I'd love to see a quarter of a million miles on it! Its has been the best and most reliable car I have ever owned, for 13 years now. And my "baby" a GoMango 2006 Dodge Charger Daytona, one of 4000 made. Its my part time show car and weekender.

No Farmers in these parts?

(35+) of the 4 wheel variety
(6) of the 6 - 30 wheel variety
(7) 2 wheelers
(0) 1 wheeler (at the moment)
(3) of the Tracked variety (these are more fun as 'vehicles')

Annual oil changes take a few days and LOTS of Amsoil.

My insurance agent LIKES me and I probably feed and clothe his kids. (and he has a MUCH nicer car than I do)

that's an interesting way to look at it.

All under warranty - all at the same dealer - all bought from teh same dealer -

Funny story: The one time my wife's GL had to go to shop (AC not working), the dealer actually had another GL delivered at home, and the had our GL taken back, since I told him she had to take care of the baby and wouldn't like to drive to him without air conditioner in Houston heat.

Mercedes Benz - their service is great until you run out of warranty. lol.

Hi BECLAZONE--

Just one.

Now, how many cars could I drive if I made a phone call? I'd hazard a guess and say four or five cars I could borrow if I needed one.
