All right I love this contest! Here is the current fleet.

Here is my daily driver. 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser

Here is my 2005 Pontiac GTO. I just sold her two months ago though. It was a great car, and fast as hell! This car got me in trouble when it was just standing still. It was a blast to own but wasn't practical to keep around.

This thing is the reason all of my neighbors hate me! 1970 Miller Meteor Cadillac Hearse. 500 cubic inch motor with straight pipes. This thing is loud enough to wake the dead. This thing is such a blast to drive though!!!! The looks you get are just comical!!

Then this is my pride and joy right here. Let me introduce you to The Purple Palace. This is an art bus that my friend and I own together. We build her every year for the Burning Man Festival in Gerlach, NV. She is 117 feet long, 64 feet tall, and weighs in at over 100,000 pounds. We load up around 130 people at a time and drive around the playa all week long.

Here is everyone loaded up on the Palace taking a tour of some of the incredible art of Burning Man

Well, my car is nothing special, but I love my bike. These were taken with my phone (as most of my pics are), so they are not the clearest.

This is my 1980 Harley FXEF Fat Bob (Shovelhead). It has ~15k original miles on it and I definitely love to ride it. The funniest part is, I don't usually ride with other Harley riders. I ride with my buddy who has a Honda CBR600. We're quite a sight. :laugh: And yes...that is a kick start you can see close up in the second picture. :) Some people are a little astonished by that.

These mainly spend there time in dry storage and i just go to a few shows in them throughout the year so i might do 1k miles between them.

SirPluto: I used to drive a '73 Cadillac hearse, black. Only a 475 CID in that year. I think the weirdest looks I got were when the starter gave out in a 7/11 parking lot, so I ended up putting in a new one right there once I found one!

Lol, I had to replace the starter in mine as well. Mine was a wal-mart parking lot though. lol. Ya gotta love the old caddys though. 3 bolts and that starter comes right out! I think thats the fastest I have ever fixed a car in my life. lol. The hearse does amazingly well in snow too!! It was my winter car for the longest time. Now its just my "lets go out and screw with some people" car.

Loving that 68 Cam, i love muscle cars but in the Uk i'd need a lottery win to run one:facepalm: at the moment were at £6.30 (about $10.00) a gallon for petrol and diesel is about £6.50 luckily my little Citroen van does about 65 mpg so i use that more than my cars or bike.
Anyway its been really nice over here so heres a couple more of the Ghia as i have been out in it yesterday

My first car was a 68 Ghia. My dad bought it when we lived in Germany. He drove it after we got back to the States, and gave it to me when I got my driver's license. I loved that car! My second car was a 68 Camaro after I married my ex. My dad bought it for me, but ex sort of took it over (he loved muscle cars). So then, I bought a new Camaro for myself.

So, gas if $10 a gallon where you live? Wow! I thought $4.00 (what I'm paying) was high.
