I Own 11 Cars Because I'm an Idiot.

I've owned almost 60 cars in my life and I currently own 11. Because I'm an idiot. It's never a good idea to own this many cars. Today, let's talk about it. We'll go over everything in my fleet of misfit vehicles, which cars I like, which ones are terrible. Which ones I'll keep, and which ones were colossal mistakes. Come join me!

Are all my decisions terrible? What was your worst car purchase? What was your best?

If you don’t love it, get rid of it. Life is too short to spent time being owned by a car you don’t love.

My late cousin owned 20 to 30+ vintage cars - we never knew for sure.
He parked them in various locations around his city and would regularly move them so he wouldn't get tickets.
After he died his family didn't know where many of them were.

I TOLD YOU the overheating could be ignition related on the Probe. Lol. The whole top of my lower coolant fill blew off from a failing coil and overheat, the plastic tank was also old. Get some Ebay headers for $120 bucks, a high flow cat and off the shelf the rest. 2" with a resonator in there somewhere, and it will sound exotic.

LONG LIVE THE PROBE! Glad to see it back.

Glad to see the Probe is still around. I had many nightmares with those vacuum lines and chambers under the intake manifold back in the day.

Keep also the Altima and wrap it with "Big Altima Energy" vinyl and keep it for a while. Love the Nova and the Scion.

Really stoked to see the Probe is going to make it. Don't change the color! My cousin had an XB iin what he called burnt penny. Loved the thing. Got run off the road into (I think) a fire hydrant - that's the story, reality might be another matter. Replaced it with another, some kind of lime green, and mourned the loss. He's the kind of guy who will wear an olive khaki shirt with epulets - paired with an ascot. But, San Francisco, so....

If I see a 2005 Nissan Altima I stay out of the way. Almost got ran off the road by one today!

Great fleet update. Looking forward to seeing the full Chaser video!

As always, I love your Nova Twin Cam. My first car was a plain Jane AE82 Corolla sedan.

[nolarobert]

I enjoyed seeing the menagerie of vehicles and getting the latest information on them. I have to admit it really warmed my heart to see that the Probe was running again because it is my favorite out of your collection. I remember when I used to see a number of them on the road and just how cool they looked. I hope the exhaust situation is resolved and that the Probe has a long and glorious life with you.

Having just watched your “cars suck” video from a year ago, I wondered where it’d lead to, and I found out, lol. I’m car-free and _loving_ it! Good luck, man.

[RetroCarsForever]

Maybe make the Fox into a lawn ornament...It sounds like all you really like about it is the styling anyways, and hey, it's already growing some plants!

[TofersCarTales]

Still jealous of the Probe. Awesome video as always!

[flyaustin]

As someone who’s first car was a 2000 Nissan Altima, I resent your comment about how the pervious generation Altima wasn’t all that great 😅 that was one of the most trouble free, comfortable cars I ever had and did amazing well in some harsh winter conditions. But it’s always great to see a fleet update and hear what some plans are going forward, definitely looking forward to seeing that in depth review of the chaser too!

[brianthompson]

Love seeing the Probe! My first car was 94 Probe GT, traded it in for my first Mustang GT. Still miss that probe, probably the reason why I still have the mustang after 19 years.

[Wolfekun]

Like others have already said, I too am so happy to see the Probe back! I thought for sure it was toast, but I’m stoked that you were able to fix it - hopefully it’ll behave itself from now on!

[Yourmission]

What you spoke was pure truth brother! Everyone online “oh I made so much selling this, it was great!” While simultaneously neglecting the fact they own a fleet of other cars that have not, nor will not ever make them a profit, much like a gambler who wins a 100k jackpot after they spent 20 years gambling 500k away. Because of your honest words and cool video, consider this little buttercup subscribed!

[TeksTherapy]

Excited about the Resurrected Ford PROBE GT updates 😎👍

[chloemackinly]

The second gen Ford probe is, in my opinion, the most underrated car of all time. I absolutely love how it's a JDM pony car for people who can't afford a real JDM. I'd give anything for a right-hand drive RWD Probe to have been made

[bigmac]

Glad to hear the probes back in good order, hope you do something so unique with it !
