Red face My name is Eight and I知 a Caraholic

Hello my name is EightCostsMoney and I’m a Caraholic. I think I need to get some help. I’m 32 years old and had 21 cars and 4 motorcycles. Wow, I just sat down and counted them all. My wife thinks I’m crazy but at least I don’t go through women like that. I’m happily married to my only wife. Here is the list of cars and bikes I’ve owned. This does not include the cars my wife has and had. Some time I had two cars but in most cases I had these one at a time.

Cars

1. 1984 Pontiac Trans AM - wreaked
2. 1989 Nissan 300ZX - wreaked
3.1989 Toyota Supra - traded
4. 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS - traded
5.1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX – sold
6. 1992 Toyota Tercel - sold
7. 1995 Pontiac Firebird - traded
8. 1989 Pontiac Grand AM - sold
9. 1967 Ford Thunderbird - sold
10. 1966 Ford Mustang – sold
11. 1998 Toyota Tacoma - traded
12. 1966 Ford Mustang GT - sold
13. 2005 Ford Mustang – Lemon (Ford gave me a new Fusion)
14. 2005 Ford Fusion - traded
15.2007 Scion TC - traded
16. 2009 Toyota Tundra - sold
17.2001 Toyota Mr2 Spyder - traded
18. 2005 Mazda 3 - traded
19. 1997 Miata STO – traded
20. 2003 350Z - traded
21. 2004 Mazda RX-8

Motorcycles

1. 1997 Honda Nighthawk 750 - sold
2. 2008 – Kawasaki Ninja 650 R - traded
3. 2009 – Harley Davidson 883 - sold
4.2009- Kawasaki Concourse 14 - sold

Yep, I need help. Do note the RX-8 is where I have stopped…for now. Anyone else
