So, what have you owned before? Post pics if you have them.
My first car was an 88 Mercury Cougar. 3.8L V6, bad transmisson, no air, and terrible paint job (till my dad got it painted for my birthday). I hated it when I had it, but I miss it still to this day. It was so comfortable, and a good bit fun to drive. I traded it in for my first Jeep, a 1997 TJ SE:
After I got tired of driving a 4 banger on larger tires with stock gears back and forth from school, I traded it in on a 96 Dodge Ram:
When I moved to MI for the winter in 05, the damn thing had tranny problems and broke down on me before I even made it to Nashville. I ended up driving my dad's Econoline van around for a while till they traded the truck in for a Suzuki Reno and we swapped out. I don't claim ownership, as I didn't chose it, nor did I ever pay on it. It was just on loan to me. Once I moved back home and got a good job, I picked up my current, 99 Wranger: |

If its not 4wd its not an authentic Jeep, and thats an insult to Jeep. If your insulting Jeeps then your insulting the Wrangler. AND NO ONE INSULTS THE WRANGLER!

So lets add a little twist, what is the ratio of years you have been able to drive to vehicles you have owned. Mine would be 7:4. 7 years since i got my license, 4 vehicles I have owned.

Well, I'm 33 and have been driving since I was 13 so that's 20 years. And 34 vehicles unless I've forgotten a few of them, which wouldn't surprise me.....
So here's the ratio: 20/34. Not quite 2 vehicles per year driving, but close.

My first love was a 1986 ford mustang that I instantly had taken away for 67 in a 35 and racing on roadway. The cop knew my dad because they were in the bassclub together so there was no hiding it..... I woulda won too had he not popped out of no where with his lights a flashing.
