A, T, V

1987 Sterling 825sl - not a good car. the electrical gremlins ran rampant in that car
1989 Toyota Corolla All-trac sedan - this car was a mountain goat, couldn't get stuck in snow. Most reliable car I ever had
1995 Volvo 850 - 13.5 years of trouble-free service
1997 Toyota 4-runner
2000 Volvo V40 - thing ate headlight bulbs for dinner. my first turbo
2005 Acura MDX - just said goodbye to old reliable
2009 Acura TSX - super fun to drive - except in the snow
2013 Volvo S60 T5 AWD - solid with a decent performance
2015.5 Volvo XC60 - my last chance to get another inline-5 turbocharged vehicle.

now....... 2005 MDX just replaced by used 2015 X5 35x drive.

I got hooked on BMW as a teenager thanks to mom and dad.

First car was a 15 yr old Toyota, but BMW had my heart captured even before then.

For me, years of VW/Audi. Had a good run with the brand; however, change, can be a good thing.
