Oppo, I have a problem. I already own more vehicles than I realistically have space for but I'm pretty sure I want another. Right now I own 5 cars, all purchased in the last year but I think I'm going to make that 6 soon. Lets run through them shall we...
First off we have my current DD that
!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
a 2013 Ford Focus ST. Absolutely fantastic little car, in less than 6 months I've put almost 12,000 miles on it.
Then there is my old DD, my 2001 Jeep Cherokee !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! while he finishes his LS/280z swap. This car has a clear path, in August I'm driving it to Michigan to sell to a friend who needs cheap reliable wheels.
Then there is the Doge Lemons car which is !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and lives at Harris Hill Road right now. Much racecar. Bad tires. Wow.
There is the most recent acquisition (which I technically only half own) !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
And this week I should finally, finally be taking delivery of the 1992 track prepped Miata I traded my !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .
But now I have a new obsession: I want an old step side Chevy. I blame Roadkill for this:
Now I don't really want (or need) a Muscle truck but now I have a burning desire for a '70s stepside. This wouldn't be an issue if I actually had some land or something but I live in smallish house in central Austin with two roommates. It has a two car garage but that is reserved for the Willys, soon the miata and my roommates canoe project. I could probably get away with keeping it in the driveway since we do have a lot of street parking... And it would be useful to have a truck again for hauling stuff and towing the doge short distances....
Lets fire up the craigslist machine!
Oooo this one looks good
He's only asking $3500 and says he's negotiable on price. Me gusta.
This one has more potential but is more of a project...which I don't think I have time for...
Or there's this one

Gah! So many vehicles I want to own. It is late and I am rambling but right now I'm becoming obsessed with the idea of getting a stepside, whats one more vehicle right? I can handle it... I can quit anytime I want!

It's because you currently have a pickup truck and need to satisfy your username.

I hear you.
I currently own an Alfa 156 2.5l V6, a Jaguar XJ40 4.0 5-speed, a Triumph Spitfire project, a Lada Niva and a BMW E36 325i (not including the Fiat X1/9 and another XJ40 that were crushed by a tree, currently awaiting parting out).
I'm constantly on eBay looking at cars I want, and there's a hell of a list.
Currently, I want these:
-Alfa GTV6
-Alfa Alfetta
-Alfa 6
-Alfa 75
-Alfa Montreal
-Alfa 159 SportWagon
-MGB GT V8
-Triumph TR6
-Triumph TR8
-Triumph Stag
-Triumph Toledo (with a Sprint engine)
-Triumph GT6 (with a Sprint engine)
-Jaguar XJS V12
-Maserati Biturbo (one of the early ones with the oily bits from a later car)
-Rover SD1
-Rover P6
-Another Fiat X1/9
-Lancia Beta HPE
-Lancia Fulvia
-Chevrolet Corvair
-Oldsmobile Toronado
-Matra Murena
-Fiat Dino
-Peugeot 404
-Citroen BX
-Reliant Scimitar
Not all of them I need concurrently, but I'd like to have a good percentage :)

Wow. I don't have such a clearly defined list. I've been thinking lately about the concept of an Automotive bucket list, not just a set of cars I want but the cars that are realistically attainable and that if I died tomorrow I would be disappointed I never owned. There are plenty of cars I would like to own and would buy if I came across the right deal but that wouldn't make the bucket list.

Damn you people with storage room. I've currently got my Sonic, and my 66 F100 is parked 600 miles away in my parent's garage since I don't have one.

I'm a bit jealous. I don't even think I can afford a 2nd car until I get my first one paid off.
