lets see...

first mode of transportation that i bought myself was a:
Diamondback mountainbike. it was a hardtail, and i think i paid $500 for it, and invested another 5 or 6 hundred in it.
it got stolen while i was at work.

next i bought a Norco Bigfoot. also a hardtail. i think i paid about$900 for it, andonly replaced the pedals on it.everything on it is beefy. i still own this bike, but ever since i bought my car, it doesnt get used to much.i think i used it under 20 times this year.

then i bought a '92 Civic hatch. modded. B16 swap, 17" wheels, aftermarket sideskirts/rear bumper. a loud as f*ck exhaust, 5spd, gsr swapped everything.
i paid $5400 for it. wat a big mistake that was.
i went to go buckle up when i got the car, and there was no buckle, i was like, wtf? the seats were really half assed with the install, and rears didnt even fit. the stereo barely worked at all. i tihnk 1 speaker played music. it wouldnt pass the etest to save its life.

so then i went new car shopping with my dad. of course, we test drove a '06 civic, and i liked it. but the mazda3 was cheaper.

i sold the civic to mazda for $1500. i was f*cking pissed. i lost $4000 in about a month. this happened over a year ago, and since then, ive yet to have over $1000 in my account.
always do your research kids.

now i drive a nicely modded Mazda3. rims, full exhaust, lowered, yadda yadda yadda.

i'll post pics later on
i just hit 1200 last week

That's a lot o' Ford's,Siber!!! That's more thansst has owned and he works for Ford.
Won one of them in a radio contest huh? That's cool, and you must be lucky! Was that a big bodied Bronco, or the Bronco II?

Big Bodied Bronco, I had a 50/50 shot at winning since only 2 of us made it through the Snow storm to the Ford dealer, I traded the 7 foot Meyers plow they were going to put on it for a set of rims and tires.

74 Bronco

As you can see, everything I have ever owned (Except for the Yota)has had some Ford influence
All right....another early Bronco fan....even the right year.

Your still lucky. I never won anything like that.
You sure that was a good deal? I know pplw/Jeeps and whatnot that make a lot o' money plowing snow. And dem plows ain't cheap. I used to work for a Jeep dealer (in the mid-late '80's) and we used to install the suckers. My boss used to love plowing snow.

They said the same thing Richard, but I had access to my Dad's 78 Powerwagon with an 8' Fisher on itand 3 of our singlescrewDump trucks had 12 foot plows and the twin screw had a 13 ' V plow. I made a lot of money plowing needless to say, but I didn't want to tear up the new Bronco LOL.
