First it was a 98 Chevy Malibu (or I like to call it the Malfunction). This was the familys car and I was using it until I had purchased a beater.

Now I have a 94 VW Golf.... which actually is a really fun car. I bought the car for 400$ which was a hell of a deal. It had 81k on it but needed a trans as well as a big tune up, though the body/interior was very clean. After finding a trans for 150$ and some other cheap parts it runs like a champ. Maybe after I get the 7 running again I will find a VR6 motor to put in it. On this generation of VW it is a direct bolt in pretty much, even bolts to the same half shafts & fuse box. Kind of a fun sleeper because any VR6 from the factory wasn't 4 door or 4 lug.

99' Corolla. Four seats, fuel efficient and reliable, but needs a bit more power.

My friends call it 'the beast' 1987 3/4 ton dodge pickup, granny 4-spd, 360ci v-8, edelbrock 600cfm, etc. This summer I had 2800lbs of cement in the back, didn't even phase it.

Another beater

I picked up another beater for the winter. I still have the 88 Caprice classic (trying to sell), but just got a 91 Isuzu Trooper V6 4X4 with 108K miles. Runs like a champ and is loads of fun offroad.
