    A few.
    I just found a ‘20 DCSB TRD OR MT about a month ago. What can I say, I like Tacomas… plus the ‘02 has lots of mods, and needs some maintenance. That said I was also looking at TRD RAV4’s. 1C7CDE5E-3F65-4AD3-9F79-BE71275E1D52.jpg

    2016 Prius. Never thought I’d own one but with 55+MPG and very little maintenance thus far, I can’t complain.

    My other "toys" are a 1967 Corvette L79 (350HP 327). Its a nice "driver"...

    I also have a 1966 Chevelle SS 396 that I have had since high school (mid-80's). Undergoing a restoration, but I bought the Corvette, so the Chevelle has been on hold for a few years.

    Chevelle2.jpg Chevelle1.jpg

    Daily, its either my '95 Tacoma (155k), or my 2015 Sienna (95k)...

    My kids drive a 2009 Camry that we bought new (150k), and a 2004 Corolla we got from my father-in-law (85k miles)... Bought my neighbor's 2005 Prius (my kids drove that for a while before the Corolla), gave it to my 81 year-old Mom to drive around town... We like the Toyotas because of reliability and inexpensive (relatively) to repair... I don't plan on buying a newer car for at least 4-5 years...

    03871622-254A-4F19-B54C-E8F361DF4926.jpg My 18 Silverado with what my fabricator calls the old manopy shell and my wife’s brand new ForesterFE93010A-B189-4E95-BDAD-D49585C68620.jpg Not a ride cause it’s in pieces and isn’t riding on anything but a trailer but a very low miles 2000 Tacoma with a clean cab and bed I got for $5000. Replacement frame is rust free, but lots of rusted out hardware, bolts, etc because the guy left it sitting for a few years after attempting a frame swap and tried reusing some stuff. It’ll clean up though, after that I’m torn between putting it back together and selling it, with 85,000 original miles I could get $20,000 around western WA, or doing what I originally planned and putting the red truck’s body, engine, transmission and transfer case on my green trucks frame/suspension/axles and swapping everything off the green truck and putting it on the red trucks frame and selling it for probably about what I paid for the red truck or what I REALLY want to do is turn the green truck into a crawler on the red trucks frame.2E9ABD54-C814-4521-BFCF-46BC4AC580EF.jpg And since we’re throwing out tractors, my old daddy on his 76 Massey Ferguson 235 that I’ve been working on. He’s passed on but that thing just keeps rolling, though it’s pretty tired.

    Yes, another project, just what my wife wanted haha. I’m working on her, if after I get the red truck’s body on my current frame and get the green body on the red frame, I’m hoping she sees my need for another project after the work on them is done

    Yellow '88 Honda NT650 (Hawk GT) - First bike, built from a box of parts
    Blue '88 Honda NT650 (Hawk GT) - Second bike, a really good deal on marketplace
    Black '13 Audi allroad - Daily driver, commuter, and grocery getter with a stage 1 tune. Makes 400 ft lbs on E85 and recently blew my mind at the local autocross.

    They are awesome bikes. I just gave this one a restoration. If you get one make sure you’re mechanically inclined or make nice with a great mechanic.

    Rebuilt speedometer
    Rebuilt alternator
    New clutch
    Full Spline service

    This is how my NT650 started out when I got it... Still needs some work to be perfect but man it helped me learn A TON. Not bad for a "starter" bike too. I picked up another one that wasn't running due to some carb problems and had it running smooth within a couple hours of getting it home. Unfortunately the tank is rusted on the inside and someone just coated over the rust, so restoring the tank is my current project... It's some nasty, messy work.
