    Wow do you guys keep a list handy?

    I remember the cars in the context of other memories, like going on a vacation or what we were driving when we were taking the kids to school.

    A couple of the cars were passed down to my daughters when they went to college.

    I'm still driving the 2017 Promaster City which has 248,000 miles on it and my wife has a '23 Chevy Traverse, both white.

    My favorites looking back were the red '60 DeSoto, the white '63 Olds 98, the blue '72 Cutlass, and my first car the black '60 Corvair.

    To cg21 in reference to your keeping a list handy. Yes I do. I have a spread sheet that I started before computers were available for home use. When I got Microsoft office I transferred that hand written spread sheet to Excel. I have kept a record of obviously year, make, model and color as well as date of purchase, date of sale, miles at purchase and miles when sold.

    When I met the person I would eventually marry, I was lucky to find that she loved cars as much as I did. We figured that since we enjoyed new cars, even considering the loss of value when you sign the papers, we didn't care and in the 25 years that we were married we purchased 26 new cars and 2 used, one of which we turned into a very successful SCCA racer. Unfortunately since her passing I have only purchased a few cars. It isn't the same but every now and then something caught my eye, like my Jag F-Type that I just had to have,
