Last night, yet another vehicle joined our growing car collection. I can hear it already. " You two go through more cars than anyone else I know. How many cars have you had this year?" Well, that made me wonder... How many cars have we owed since we've been married? So, I thought I'd make a list. To make it things interesting, I'll add cars that we had while we were dating too. Here goes!
1. 1990 Toyota Camry (My first car. I loved that thing.)
2. 1986 Mazda 323 (Jordan kept willing the thing to die. It did.)
3. 1979 Nissan Z 290 (Jordan bought this right after we started dating, and sold it after just a few weeks. That should have been my first clue about Jordan's motor vehicle obsession!)
4. Suzuki Savage Motorcylce
5. 1989 Astro Van (Given to Jordan by his parents to replace a dead Mazda)
ENTER THE MARRIAGE YEARS
6. 1990 Ford Bronco (Because we didn't want a mini van when we had no children)
7. 2002 Toyota Corrolla (which is the only brand new car we have ever had)
8. 1972 Chevy (which didn't stick around long)
9. 1998 Ford F-150 (Jordan still whines to this day about missing his truck!)
10. 1998 Saturn SL(totaled)
11. 2000 Triumph motorcycle (Purchased without permission!)
12. 2001 Ford Windstar (now making the move to minivans for real)
13. 1973 Porsche 914 (The car that started the Porsche obsession)
14. 1990 Porsche 911 (Also purchased without permission. I think Jordan still cries in his sleep over the loss of this vehicle.)
15. 2004 Ford Freestar
16. 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo
17. 1983 Porsche 911 Targa
Vehicles we have purchased in the last year!
18. A boat (Does that count on this list?)1983 Checkmate
19. 1983 (or 1984?) Volkswagen Rabbit
20. 1990 Volkswagen Jetta
21. 2004 Mini Cooper
22. 2008 Buick Enclave* (Done with mini-vans!)
23. 1984 Porsche 928 S
24. And our newest addition, a 1996 BMW M3*. See pictures below.
Do Jordan's work issued vehicles count on this list too? If so...
25. Work van
26. New odd little squashed looking van he got a few weeks ago. This thing really is funny looking!*
*Vehicles that are currently in our possesion

We are so taking Jordan with us the next time we buy a car (and sell one for that matter)! That is soo crazy.
I LOVE it! When can we go for a spin?
That is SOO funny! I thought there is no match for Ryan...oh, but there was!! We haven't hit #20 yet. As well as, Ryan is always impressed with the amount of porsches.

Love the list! Who would have guessed you've been through that many cars.
I can't remember, was that a hideous Buick LeSabre you had in high school? I loved that beast.
True, true, Nicole. I recall Elaine driving some monstrosity in high school. Maybe it was traumatic enough that it's blocked from her brain ;)
