My wife drives nicer though, but we aren't counting stuff we buy for others are we? <grin>
Sailboats! I've had 3. 2 racing dinghies and a(n experimental) sailing canoe. I let others own (and pay for) the big stuff. I have no way of measuring my "boat years". Sailing, designing and building boats was the dream of my younger years, then focus in life, then derailed by my head injury. As I lived through watching that love ebb recede out of reach, my solace was the bicycle.
For me, cars were tools. First a VW bus to pursue my dream across the country, then 3 Toyotas, first two used.
