Stuck with an Acura Integra for more than 10 years, a bit too long in hindsight. Drove my wife's Highlander for a while, but had to get in a 4Runner...loved it every minute since, clean or dirty, town or road, desert or swamp!!

Old rides

1988 Chevy S-10 - as stripped as one can get (no a/c, no power steering, no power). It seems like I had that truck on every strip mine in eastern kentucky (only got stuck a few times) Solid ride, but sold after about 145,000 mi

1996 Chevy S-10 - a little more power, a/c and power steering this time, had to replace the tranny to an upgraded one at 10,000 mi (warranty) because it grinded second gear pretty bad. They said it wasn't the synchronizer. I had this one to about 145,000 mi then traded it in for a

2004 SR5 - solid, good power, the driver's seat has been replaced, but still moves a little (took a while to get used to the big V-6 gas mileage)
 
Had a 1996 Accord EX

Then 2002 Lexus IS300 5sp.

Still my daily driver. Got the T4R to complement this. Love the t4r for it's versatility...but it's still just a truck in it's road manners.
