        My current car is a 2001 Nissan Altima with 239k miles on it. Gotta get the power steering looked at, but otherwise, it runs like a champ!

            Totaled it a week before Thanksgiving 2013.

            This got me thinking that I have lost track of the vehicles I have totaled.

            I think this is the right order:
            1971 Pontiac Lemans - My first Car (totaled prior to getting my license)
            1970 Dodge Coronet 440 - My Second Car
            196X Dodge work truck
            1985 Dodge K Car - Pushed into a guardrail, superficial damage, but it fried the computer.
            1981 Ford Mustang - Upside down in a ditch
            1981 Ford Capri (owned 2 weeks) - Telephone pole dropped on it (while I was sleeping).
            199X Ford Ranger - Deer
            199X Ford E150 Van - Blown motor
            2005 Honda Civic

            I think I am missing one, but i cannot recall it at the moment..

            Good lord, someone tackle me if they see me getting in a car with Jared, I don't want to die just yet.

              Didn't do the whole grill but the blacked out logo looked cool. Sadly I had to take the plasti dip off since it started to chip from rocks.

                          The only hospitaliztions have been other drivers that hit my car. The one time I hit someone (last accident in my civic), there were no injuries.

                            I have been relatively lucky ,myself. I was in 7 accidents between the time I was 16 and 20. Nobody ever needed so much as a doctor's visit... I think I had a target painted on my back for those years.

                              That is not a count of accidents. That is a count of totaled vehicles. Those numbers are not equal.

                                    Subaru WRX. Bought new in 2007, will probably be buried with it (hopefully at a ripe old age.)

                                        Eh, have a few cars. Currently have a Cadillac CTS, a Ford Ranger, and soon to join my menagerie, a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500.

                                        Thinking about getting a new daily driver to replace the CTS. Been eyeing up something stupid fast, but might have to give up and get me a Corvette. Maybe a CTS-V, wind up pulling a @JaredBusch.

                                          This type of thing is precisely why I have chosen to never own a motorcycle. I know myself well enough to know I would kill myself.
