Looks low mileage too! I bet its more expensive than those 'race' cars though...

'01 F350 in sig (320k miles)
'00 Excursion in sig (230k miles)
'92 Daihatsu Rocky 4x4 for 'around town'

'84 Toyota 4Runner rockcrawler w/dual t-cases & stuff - couldn't find any recent pics...


With 2.28:1 x 4.7:1 low ranges I have a WOT top speed of about 5mph - in OD.

cost

What are the costs in America having a car?
I mean, I drive an 2002 Grand cherokee, and my governement want taxes $ 226 a month
my 1993 Jaguar V12 6.0 cost taxes $ 140,- for a month.
I MUST pay every month $ 366 ONLY tax
I haver a Jeep Wrangler also, but i don't have the money to drive it !!! It would be another $140 tax for one month !!!
Then gasoline cost in The Netherlands $8,20 gallon

How is it possible that you have THAT many cars ??

Yes, owning a car is cheaper here and when you live outside of a city parking is not an issue. Many of us collect cars for fun. Three of my cars are hardly driven, my 2 suvs are weekend and back up vehicles and our small cars are daily drivers. Taxes are annual in some states along with inspection and registration fees which are not bad in most states, I understand NY and CA are very expensive.

They are defective! They inflated properly, but they didn't deflate!

I don't race, I have 3 Chevelles that I haul around to shows. With kids it is impossible to go on a long trip in a restored car, the recleaning is a nightmare.

The trailer doubles as a garage when not being used.
