Your Ride and your Previous cars?

Okay well most of us here have at least 4Runner in their fleet of cars (or maybe its your only car!), but also I'm curious as to what your other cars may be, and also if you have been a Toyota family like mine have?

My two cars are the '02 Limited and an '07 Acura RDX with the Tech Package. I was "given" the Acura because my mom hated the visibility of it, and loved the visibility in the 4Runner, so she let me essentially have her old car and the 4Runner too. Sweet deal if you ask me.

My dad currently drives an '07 A8L and my mom drives an '07 MDX Sport.

Their previous cars have varied alot, but most have been Toyotas- from most recent to as old as I can remember:

Dad:
2005 Tundra Limited 4x4
2003 BMW 545i
2001 Tacoma SR5 4x4
1995 Toyota Truck 4x4
1990 Toyota Truck 4x4
1986 Toyota Truck

Mom:
2007 RDX
2002 4Runner (now mine)
1996 4Runner SR5 4x4
1991 Toyota Corolla All Trac
1986 Toyota Trecel AWD
1972 Volvo P1800

That is about as far back as i can remember.

Yeah, i missed that 4runner...at least, my firiend still has it in Florida. That color was a Lexus color (my brother's LX470 had it) and was only available on 2002 Limiteds.

Here is a pic of it off-roading:

Oh my god, you have no idea how happy it makes me to see a picture of a Pearl White 4Runner, too see one in person is orgasmic. Everything was color matched, grill, rear aroudn the license plate. That thing was beautiful. That is my dream 4Runner. Think he wants to trade for a Silver one, exact same car? Haha
 
I've got two 4x4's. I have the 4Runner as my daily driver, traded in my ZR2 on the 4Runner. Here is a pic of my new 4Runner next to my old ZR2 when I was leaving the dealer lot:

And here is a picture of my pride and joy. It is a Chevy Silverado SS that I bought right off the show room floor:

SS090207c.JPG



I only drive the SS on nice days, don't want it to get dirty or covered in salt. During the 2007 year I think I put about 1600 miles on the thing. When I tell people how many miles (or should I say how little miles it has), people can't believe it. Hopefully it will be worth money in the future since it was a limited production that isn't even made anymore, but it is my baby and I'll have it in my life for many years to come. The only upgrades I've done are cosmetic on the exterior.

I will have to say that the thing is fantastic in the snow and bad weather with the all wheel drive.
 
This one, our first and only ever Toyota:
2007 SR5 4Runner V-8, 4WD Shadow/Stone

Still also driving:
2002 Ford Explorer Sport 4WD


JUST sold this week:
1993 Chevrolet S-10 pickup that was our first brand new car. I added up purchase price and repairs, and found that it has cost us LESS THAN $750 per year, for the 14 1/2 years that we drove it!

I miss that CJ.

I even miss that Cherokee. It was the most basic Cherokee you could get. She had 125K on her when I sold it in 1999 for $1000. I wonder where she is. Talk about memories.

Nope, 5.9 Liter V8's (360ci) were put in the 5.9 Limited version truck only and that was in '98 as the last year of that model's production. Everything else were the 5.2's. And yes, it did haul ass!
