All My Cars!
Here is a list of ALL of the cars that I have owned over my lifetime. OK, I use the term "cars" to refer to all of my vehicles (including mini-vans) and I am also including some other vehicles in the list here (my mini-bike and motor cycles).
I also put together a (Juicebox) photo display of all of my cars (and mini-vans). I am actually not a big "car person" so I don't actually have good photos of all of my vehicles. I have decent photos of my most recent cars (the mini-vans) but I had to search my old photos and videos (from 8mm film) for even bad photos of my early cars.
I'll include a link to the Photo Display after the text listing below.
So, just for the record, I also searched the internet for good photos of cars that were like my early cars. The internet photos (of my early cars) are WAY better photos but they are not my actual cars, of course and are often restored or customized a little so they don't look exactly like the stock version of the cars (most of them have fancy-dancy wheels and stuff).
So the photo display includes photos of my actual cars (the bad photos that I had) and cars that were pretty similar to my actual cars. I could not even find a bad photo of my old purple AMC Hornet from the 70s. Maybe one will turn up at some point.
Here's the listing of all of my vehicles followed by the Photo Display link and some additional comments.

I haven't put together anything with the photos of the other misc. vehicles. Maybe another time if I can find some decent photos of them.
I have owned cars since I was 16 years old (in 1969) !!! OK, I guess I was a little bit of a spoiled kid but my early cars were really just hand-me-downs from other cars that were in the family (mostly my parents) which was what our family did in those days. I was very fortunate that way though. At least it wasn't like the spoiled rich kids by us now that get brand new sports cars on their 16th birthday or for graduation presents or anything like that.
I have owned 7 cars (and mini-vans) so far (as of 2020)...
Since my 2004 Odyssey has over 200k miles now and will be needing some expensive repairs and maintenance soon, I was actually considering getting a new vehicle this year (2020) but with Covid and all the other stuff that I have going on this year, I decided to put that off probably until next year (2021). I sure hope it hangs in there without a break down and major repairs until then.
So once I get myself one more new vehicle (most likely another Odyssey, since mine has been really, really good to me), I am hoping that it will be the last vehicle that I own. I am not driving nearly as much now since I don't commute to work everyday and I am getting a little older now 😊 so I don't think that I am going to be needing another one.
Maybe I'll have a chauffeur by then! (Why else would I only need 1 more)...
