I can't get a Drivers License due to medical reasons.

So where's the "I don't have a car you insensitive clod" option ?

Hehe... well, lets see. Around the time the warranty was going to expire, my oil pan gasket leaked. Consequently, I'm not sure how long I drove without oil (there was none in it, or the filter when I had it changed). Within another couple of years, it died (aka, stalled and wouldn't start). Something to do with the distributor rotor. The answer from Honda: "It can go anytime after 80K miles and there's no way to know when". Nothing mentioned in the maintenance section of the manual.

a 2002 Toyota Tundra

A very nice truck, I might add. Best out of all the trucks I've owned.

After the Tundra's paid off... here comes the 'vette

Since I'm at college, there isn't much room (or money) for me to park my car. So, it's sitting at home waiting until my brother turns 16.

It, btw, is a 1998 Pontiac Sunfire Coupe. Black, sunroof, spoiler, and a lot of crap in the backseat that was left there by others in my family. I swear, my mom and sister don't know how to keep a clean car.

A classic: Toyota Estima, built in 1992 or thereabouts. I paid the equivalent of 2000 USD for that two years ago, the very first time I spent that much money on a car.

Enough room to swing a few cats, but not much fun anymore since the air conditioning broke down last summer. Replacing it would be far too expensive, it'll have to go before the temperatures rise above 30 degrees again...
