Yowsa!
Several of those are very cool, too - I'm jealous!
I started counting once and quit at 150.

Ha ha. By looking at these list, mine included, that the reason why we have had so many cars through out the years, is that it took a half dozen or so just to make it through the year.
Man, I guess I just hold onto cars longer:
1974 - 63 Chevy Impala inherited from my aunt
1978 - 70 Chevy Camaro handmedown from my sister
1979 - 1979 Chevy Malibu (first car I bought)
1986 - 1986 Olds 88
1992 - 1991 Olds 88
1999 - 1999 Buick Century
2006 - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
Loved the Impala. When I got it, it had 23k miles on it, dry rot tires and the paint job was in the pits, but it was a great college car with the cavernous trunk. The well in there was perfect for the fridge I kept in my dorm room. The Camaro was pretty cool, but had no power anything and 2/60 air conditioning. Warning, some dates may vary a year either way.
I'm going quackers!

When I started this thread, I surely didn't imagine this much response & so many people with so many vehicles. I do belive though, I have owned the most amount of vehicles in the shortest time frame. Praise the Motor Gods!

Oh, I dunno. 28 in 10 years is only 2.8 per year. I usually have 4 or 5 at any one time. Currently, I've got a 1971 Dodge D-100, a 1984 Dodge W-150, a 1982 Mercedes 380SL roadster and a '98 Ford Taurus. Last year I sold at least 4 cars over the course of the year, plus I sold one motorcycle, bought another one and then sold it as it was just a pile of used parts.
I'm trying to sell the '71 Dodge and '82 Mercedes to buy a newer Ram 2500 4X4. I have so many that I'm always having to work on something and just don't have time for it anymore. Once I get a late 90's truck, I'll sell the '84 off.

I thought I was bad grouch. I don't usually have any more then 2 vehicles at one time & lately only have 1 vehicle at one time. I just tend to trade 'em off or sell them faster then most people as I'm always finding another vehicle that I want. Although I don't have any plans to get rid of my Explorer in the near future and may keep it for a while. Almost been a year now since I bought it.

I have specific criteria for what I keep or sell. The Taurus I've got now I bought specifically to haul my mother around. Her wheel chair fits in the trunk just fine and she doesn't have much trouble getting in and out. I'll keep it until she passes. I've had it 7 months and have already put about 10K on it. It is comfortable and I use it for general driving. The '84 Dodge W-150 is my back up driver, bad weather driver (if I can't go, nobody goes.) and general utility vehicle. The '71 was bought to play with and as a project but my free time has disappeared and it's up for sale. The '82 Mercedes was my goal for 30 years. It took me three years to talk the previous owner out of it. I wanted one ever since I saw the movie "Gumball Rally". The two old phartes racing in the 190SL just hit a chord with me. There was also a car like mine I didn't notice at first. After I got mine, I noticed the cute gal the Italian driver picked up was driving a gold one.
I'm looking for a 1994-2004 Dodge Ram 2500 with a Cummins and 4X4 to replace the '84 as the '84 isn't really heavy enough and was originally sold in Maine and doesn't have a/c. Once I get rid of the '71, '82 and '84, I plan to stay with just two drivers. A heavy truck and a more economical driver, with or without 4X4. I can't get in the roadster easily any more and want something I don't grunt getting in and out of.

My number of cars may not be impressive as you guys' are, but the "makes" of cars I've owned are nonetheless "consistent", in that they were/are:
1936 Chevy coupe
52 Chevy coupe
53 Chevy sedan
73 Chevy Malibu
66 Impala sedan
74 Chevy Vega H.B. coupe
and 76 Impala coupe
in chronological order, and invariably, the next will be, you guessed it, a Chevy, but I dunno, I'm in my "sunset" years and the '76 Impala may be the last I will own and drive if I can continue to be able to get my hands on any needed parts to keep it going. Why I am "ChevyMan".

Yea, I know, but wife said "Do it".

I even had a couple of other 65 GTO's, one new, the other a couple of years old, both destroyed in accidents, including the new one 7 months later that took two tow trucks to pull off the tree that the fine city of Honolulu sent me a bill for damages, to the tune of $500, a lot of coin in 1965, which my Insurance Company refused to pay (the jerks even refused to pay more than what was owned at the bank, even thou I had put 40% down and made 8 payments on the car), which is now known as Conseco (rated in the Worse top ten Insurance companys now).

If we should give Abraham Lincoln credit for uniting America, then we should give Adolf Hitler credit for uniting Europe, as both men used the same methods for the same goals.
