I have the only bicycle I know of with a remote garage door opener attached to it. One bay is for my 380, which is my daily driver, and one bay opens for my bike. Normally, at least during warmer weather, I do around 100 miles a week on the bike, but the past few years I've been too busy writing software to ride it.
If I get another powered vehicle, it'll likely be a recent (but not new) Jeep Wrangler.

Besides my 1983 280 SL I have a 1993 Honda Civic with 240,000 miles on it and a 2006 Honda Pilot with 20,000 miles. I also have the one thing (besides my wife) that all the neighborhood men covet......a 2000 Yamaha track drive snowblower. The jewel of my fleet.

My daily driver is my 1982 BMW 633CSi coupe. You just can't beat a BMW for handling. If the weather really sucks, I drive the '99 Ford Ranger XLT Sport.
My DD is a '97 Toyota Avalon with 250k on the clock.
The MIL drives a '95 Plymouth Voyager with 150k with freshly peeling paint that I can't pry from her clutches to get her something nicer (I currently have an experiment going with an '01 Mercury Sable LS with 103K that I can't sell because I got upside down too fast).
I also have my "Fred Sanford Edition" '88 Ford Ranger XLT that I swear I will replace if it ever fails the state emissions test.
But SWMBO...!
A 1995 Acura Integra LS 5 speed with 190k. She made me drive it to work yesterday to listen for a noise (of course, I didn't hear it). I was on my cell and I wondered why the car seemed so loud while I was trying to talk and I glanced at the speedo...
105 mph! I only had one hand on the wheel. If I had been stopped, they would have tasered me on the spot for general idiocy.
Being the redneck that I am, my DD is a 98 silverado with 180,000mi.The wife drives an 06 civic Si...talk about tight, I mean the Si, its a mini racer! Also in the fleet;
97 GMC Suburban..haul the boat and a crowd.
04 Accord V-6...Daughters car.
96 Grand Caravan ....Work vehicle....POS!
89 mustang GT....untagged toy,right now.
1970 Elcamino! ....The master plan! Getting ready to cone an SS!
1981 750 Custom Honda ...bought new.. still tagged.
and of course the 450SL....What am I doing with a Mercedes?
