For a while I was in the Mopar or No Car club:

1973 Plymouth Satillite - first car. Got with 70K and sold with 175K. Pulled and rebuilt the engine myself more for fun than necessity.

1973 Dodge Dart - Bought for 1st wife (she took it with her when we split). Great car but it proved that low mileage is actually worse than high mileage.

1967 Dodge Monaco - my toy which I still have With the 383 Magnum it passes everything but a gas station.

1987 Chrysler 5th Ave. - best and most reliable car I've had to-date. Got it with 95K; sold with 250K. Only major repair I did was to replace the timing chain at 230K. Never burned or leaked any oil!!

1996 Chrysler LHS - seemed like a good car for the 8 months I had it. Certainly did its job when another drive ran a red light and T-boned me -- I walked away without a scratch.

1987 560SEL - Fun car and easy to work on. It had 200K on it (100K on engine) when I got it. The only thing I'd do differently next time would be to get the diesel.
