86 Nissan 200SX XE
81 Ford F150
94 Jeep Wrangler
03 Nissan Frontier
01 Ford F250
08 Jeep Wrangler JK

I broke the pattern.
 
We've owned a couple Chevy Blazers in the past, A '78 and '94 (once you've made that mistake twice, you're done)
'90 Honda Civic
'00 Toyota 4Runner SR5 (just sold)
'04 Toyota Matrix (still own)
'11 Toyota 4Runner SR5

We prefer SUV's, I don't think it has anything to do with age, just a preference. We own the Matrix to have something smaller and better on gas rather than have two SUV's at once...
 
Four other 4Runners since 1988 except for one year I stupidly bought a van. Sold it after about a year and went back to 4Runners and haven't strayed since! :)
 
07 Xterra SE 4x4
07 Titan SE
05 Altima
97 Cavalier

I do miss the Xterra (lots more storage spaces, roof and underfloor), and miss the v8 from the Titan, but the 4runner is the right thing for the next few years at least. Plus it's "my wife's car", as I drive the 04 TSX as my daily driver, which I do like.

The 4runner is the Mommy Tank!!
