Your insurance company must love you.

Also.

The lowered dually in the background of the smart car picture. Please god tell me you own that. Either way, we need more pictures of it.

Those are some excellent cars. I have always had a thing for the Elise. Such a beautiful car.

This is only my opinion, and nothing more. I dig all of your cars, the hauler, the rat rod truck...all of it. They are awesome, and very tasteful. My opinion on your choppers, however, is a different story. I'll just leave it at that.

I'm not much of a chopper fan either, and his are no exception. I do however love that CB cafe bike and the Buell! And all of those cars, all awesome.

I think that buell is hideous, but the power that it makes is phoenominal.
That cafe racer is absolutely gorgeous.

Do you rotate through them often? Why do you have so many (Besides they look like fun)?

Yeah, USAA treats me really nicely.

And the dually - oh, *that* old thing?? Just your average slammed big block dually on shaved 22.5 semi-truck Alcoas with 22's squeezed on. My old shop truck. I traded it and another car for a nice SRT-10 "Viper Truck", and then swapped that for something else.

Buy the Cafe. Its got low compression. I say it needs a rebuild, others say it may be as simple as adjusting the valves. I have no time to mess with it.

Agreed, Buells look weird. Buy the Cafe, I seriously am tired of moving it around.

Hey now, what's next? My kids are ugly?!?
Different strokes for different folks I guess. I was a sportbike guy my whole life until I rode a rented Harley Road King around Maui for a few days. Harleys are fun in a whole different way, and choppers are the Harleyest of Harleys. I love 'em.

Honestly, it's a sickness, albeit one which I'm fortunate to be able to indulge in.

LOL! My first thought was to answer "**** Star", but figured I would just be pitching underhand to you pack of savages, with inevitable tangents about gay ****, Pony ****, and so on.

This place never disappoints!

So you want disappointing gay ****?

Seriously nice cars. I've been itching for an old block of Detroit iron recently. Your pictures are making it worse.

I click on the picture of the dually, and it's just a thumbnail.

I seriously love that thing man. Out of all of everything, that is the most badass.
