My PhilosophyThose of us who commute or live outside major cities spend a great deal of our lives driving. Driving to work. Driving from work. Driving to the store. Driving for entertainment. Just driving. I have always thought that if I'm going to spend so much of my life doing something, I should do it in something I enjoy being in.
Life should be lived how you most enjoy, with one eye always on the future. - Me, just now, because depth. Who is the man behind the curtain?Lets start with what I am not. I am not an automotive expert, although I believe in learning and doing as much work as possible on my own vehicles. I am also not an expert media creator or presenter.
I am just a guy who likes cars and motorcycles and would rather have fun and interesting vehicles than follow status quo by buying a driving appliance SO I CAN BETTER DRINK MY LATTE AND TALK ON MY PHONE WHILE F@!##^*&@#(&$^!!!!........ I might also be prone to occasional rants. Vehicle Favorites/PreferencesI don't have specific preferences for most vehicles. The only vehicles I take issue with are vehicles made specifically worse with no specific benefit: see stance. I know there are differences of opinion, but I just don't care. Logic is logic.

A Short Vehicle History
I have had my fair share of junk vehicles. Every vehicle I have had I have had to work for and on. The short list of vehicles that I have liked or most people liked in no particular order would be:
The list goes on and on, but those really stand out as some of the most fun vehicles I have actually liked enough to own myself. As you can tell, I don't consider many new cars worth noting, although I do own some.
- 1990 300ZX - Killed by physics.
- 1985 300ZX - Killed by a cow.
- 1971 240Z Race Car - Because 295's on all corners, too low to get out a driveway, and shooting fire is just cool.
- 1973 240Z - Current SR20DET project or primary excuse should I ever go bankrupt.
- 1993 Toyota MR2 - I will have another SW20...
- 1985 RX-7 GSL-SE - Aggressively street ported on coils, again, shooting fire is cool.
- 2004 Black S2000 - Loved it, traded it on a BRZ.
- 2013 BRZ - Should never have traded an S2K for it. Only mentioned to explain why my black S2000 became a red S2000.
- 2005 Red S2000 - Redeemed myself by getting another.
- E36 BMW - Had to do the German thing.
- E34 BMW - Because why not after having a 3 series? Really liked the older look of this generation over my later ones.
- 67 Mustang - It's the family car.
- 91 CRX Si - Had to try one out.
- 2006 Ninja 636 Race Bike - Why not, it was fun.
- Kawasaki Z750S - Rode it over 2500 miles in one trip.
- 2011 Ninja 1000 - A great daily commuter.
- 2013 Ninja 636 - It's fun, but I'm going to go back to a liter bike... probably boosted.
The list goes on and on, but those really stand out as some of the most fun vehicles I have actually liked enough to own myself. As you can tell, I don't consider many new cars worth noting, although I do own some.
