I just realized I've never posted up my list...I always thought I had haha.
1. 1974 Chevy Cheyenne 2500 "Camper Special" 4x4. 350sb, aftermarket cam, Accel dist, turbo 400 trans, front/rear lockers, warn hubs, 4" lift, 38" tires, straight pipes with glasspacks. Truck was a beast but at 6mpg (at best) and still in high school I couldn't afford to put gas in it...only had the tank for about 5 months.
2. 1989 Mazda RX-7 FC NA. Great little car, and my first rotary experience. Bought it with 204k on the clock on the original motor, sold it with 228k miles still running strong. Decided to sell it due to poor fuel mileage as well, haha.
3. 2005 Suzuki SV650S. What, I can't list motorcycles? Bought it brand new when I moved for college out in Phoenix. Didn't have a car at the time, only a bike.
4. 2006 Suzuki GSX-R750. Wanted to go faster so traded in the SV for the Gixxer. Still regret it; the gixxer was mind numbingly quick, but horribly uncomfortable as a daily commuter.
5. 2006 Yamaha V-Star 1110 Custom Midnight (still have). Traded in the Gixxer for something more comfortable. Still wish I would have just kept the SV; great bike. Still no car at this time...
6. 2005 Mazda RX-8. Got tired of riding only motorcycles and having to borrow friends cars to go grocery shopping, and I knew I wanted another rotary, so I got an RX-8. Then proceeded to mod the piss out of it.
7. 1993 Ford F-350 4x4. Picked it up when we moved to Colorado. Had the 460ci big block, 5-speed manual, front/rear lockers, it was a beast. Sold it (want to guess?) due to horrible fuel mileage; and it was burning so much oil, environmentalist would have like it more if it ran on sliced dolphin.
8. 1993 Mazda RX-7 FD (still have). Essentially "finished" my RX-8 project so decided to move onto something else. I had always wanted an FD so I went for it. Glad I did.
9. 1991 Mazda Protege. Bought from Jamie Spring 2011 to replace the Ford truck. 30+ average mpg sure is nice. Quick little sporty thing but I will probably upgrade in a year or so.
10. 2006 Volkswagen Jetta GLI (still have). Purchased January 2012. Great little 4-door sedan, I've always said it's the luxury of an Audi with a VW price tag. Love the turbo 4-cylinder. Easily modded with some bolt-ons which I plan on at some time.

Just to bump this, I took a few pics of some old pics. There are a lot of vehicles I wish I did have pictures of (I'm sure there are some buried in family albums back in NY), but here's what I DO have pictures of. The newer ones, you've all seen before, but here ya go:
'67 Mustang (you can also see the rear of my '93 Tbird inherited when my dad died)
'69 Bronco
'79 MGB
(Now it gets a little more boring)
'96 Yukon. Despite it's lemon status, still in the top 3 of vehicles I've owned. Did a lot of cool stuff with that truck.
2002 Tundra. First brand new vehicle purchased.
90 Saab 900T
2005 Mazda6
2004 RX8
2001 XC
2012 Tundra
1992 Miata
2014 ST
