2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Quad Cab LT Fully loaded.

My LT was the last year before they split it into the LT1 / LT2 / LT3 designations. I guess to make people feel they are getting "more".

One day I'll get a better picture of her. Her name is Xena, because she carries the stature of a princess (and yes she gets upset if not treated right) but she's tough as nails and holds her own on the street. She can work when she's asked to.

I have a 2005 Dogde Grand Caravan SXT with the Sto N Go seats. It's a nice van, but the electric door on one side keeps breaking.

2007 RED VW GTI - What an amazing car!

My VW Owner Facts:
-I'm not into hip-hop
-I'm not a Nazi
-I'm not a "liberal" or a "conservative", I'm a patriotic USA citizen that votes for a candidate because of what they do, not what they say
-An American sold me the VW from an American-owned dealership where an American works on it
-Sorry for the rant

I have a list of cages

95 Eagle Talon TSI AWD was my daily driver, I did the 97 body conversion to it. Many other mods done to it. Bigger Turbo, different fuel system, trans mods, big FMIC with hard pipes.

01 Nissan Frontier crew cab mostly stock. just a little bigger tire combo

97 Subaru Legacy AWD, mostly driven by my wife. I drive it time to time

The toys

1980 Jeep CJ-7 ground up build. Powered by a 1969 Pontiac 400ci with a Muncie SM420 & a Rockwell T-case, Dana 44 rears, spring over full flex suspension.

1971 Pontiac LeMans 62K original miles car with no rust at all. I did a complete color change to 70 Judge orbit orange and a black interior. Drive line was changer to a 1969 SJ Grand Prix 428 4 bolt engine and a Chevelle 12 posi traction rear.

Wow being a mechanic is bad. I have an addiction to owning to many vehicles

Just the bike. If I need a car I have to use the wife's. I sold my van a few months ago because I just didn't use it. Yes we are a one car two bike family.
