HOW MANY CARS/TRUCKS DO YOU OWN?
I grew up in a house where we only owned one car - my father had a company car occasionally before he owned the business so that helped, but there were no extras around. Today, everybody seems to have multiple cars around - winter trucks/suv's, summer convertibles, commuter, weekend & especially collector cars. I'm looking for a car for my son, but my ex-wife currently has two cars
 so there's no reason for me to hurry with that.How many cars/trucks do you have in your household? 8 collector cars, 2 pickup trucks & one suv.

One SUV, 1 pickup, two daily cars, one collector car--two in the garage. The cop down the street doesn't like my 73 Firebird because she's old and ugly (and so is the Firebird).

An SUV for me, a minivan for the wife and my 67 Firebird. My youngest daughter will start preschool next year and I hope to get a newer crew cab pickup with the savings from daycare costs. My oldest daughter will be driving in 2 years so I may save the SUV for her.

Two Buicks, a Thunderbird, a Silverado, a Jeep, a street bike and as of last Saturday a '69 Firebird. The Jeep and Firebird aren't currently registered, but all my stuff runs and moves under it's own power. Seven, not too bad for just myself =P

I only have a few now:
I have two 64 (LeMans/GTO) type vehicles. My original convertible and a 64 Lemans hardtop chassis car. I have a 2001 Ranger Super Cab (in perfect shape) but will probably at some point do the Extreme 4x4 routine on it. The toys being mentioned: I have a "last year" Windstar (which is an outstanding vehicle for hauling college stuff back and forth to school for my daughter and 4 people). I have a 2010 Ranger regular cab short that my son drives and lastly I have a new Escape flex-fuel vehicle with a sport towing package (so we don't have to use two vehicles) to haul 4 people up north with our summer crap.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
