Vehicles:
- 08/27/25: This page is currently under heavy maintenance. Expect lots of broken images as I am meticulously making pixel art for each vehicle.
- I really love all methods of transportation. From kick scooters and motorcycles to old trolleys and jet skis. Pixel art below are recreations of actual vehicles I own or have owned before with correct details down to the color, ride height, and aftermarket parts.
Current Fleet:
- 2009 Yamaha Vino XC50 (50cc)
- I originally bought this for my mother in law so she had a way to get to church. She never rode it because it was "too cold" outside. Now it's my favorite vehicle, go figure! I like it because it's easy to hop on and go. If I want to go to the store down the street I just hop on and take off. There's also a decent amount of storage underneath the seat and a hook in front of the seat to hang grocery bags from. Super convenient!
- 1988 Mazda B2200
- It's carbureted so the fuel economy isn't great, but it's a manual transmission so it's easy to work on and parts are relatively inexpensive. It's also rear wheel drive so it sucks in the snow. However, it makes a great cheap vehicle for hauling things around. My wife and I wanted something we could carry all of our camping gear in when we go on camping trips together.
- 2021 Toyota Corolla Hybrid
- Our family car and what my wife drives to work every day. It's great on gas and costs around $35 to fill the whole tank. We only have to add gas 1-2 times per month. This car is front while drive and surprisingly does a very good job in the snow despite how low it sits.
- 2013 Honda CB1100 (1100cc)
- This was (and still is) my dream motorcycle. I've always loved the 1970's Honda bikes. In the early 2010's Honda decided to bring back the 1970's bikes complete with the steel frames and all. This is everything the CB750 Four and CB400 Four could ever dream of, but modernized with fuel injection and ABS. It feels like sitting on a couch and the engine purrs going down the road. No windscreen makes it a dealbreaker on the highways, but on country roads it's a dream.
- 2014 Honda Grom (125cc)
- I got this bike when they were very first announced. I had always loved the Honda mini motos that were in Japan like the original Monkey. The Grom is just pure fun and is easy to maintain. The light weightedness of it makes it super nimble and easy to throw around. Sometimes I take it out in the snow as I can easily put both feet on the ground and skate around through the slippery sections of the road.
- 2011 Honda CBR250R (250cc)
- My very first bike purchased as soon as I turned 21. I have taken this one across the United States multiple times - including up to Canada! I can't see myself ever selling this one. I feel like the 250cc single cylinder engine Honda used here is absolutely perfect in every way. It's a shame that they replaced it with the 300cc engine in the US. Japan is still making the 250cc engine and uses it in the CRF250L as well.
Previously Owned:
- 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cierra
- This was my very first car and I absolutely loved it! It's also the only automatic transmission car I've ever owned. I could take it over curbs, park close to everyone else, leave it overnight anywhere and never have to worry about it. This car got me through my final years of high school and halfway through college. Eventually it met its demise when the engine block cracked going North up Highway 101 on my way to class. The very first day of college that I ever missed - and I had a proper excuse!
- 1987 Nissan 300ZX (Z31)
- Such an incredible and overlooked vehicle. This thing had T-Tops and the most 80's interior aesthetics imaginable. I always felt like Robocop was near with the way the dashboard looks. I bought this car before getting any motorcycles. I eventually sold it because it just sat there and didn't get the love it deserved. I had a racing clutch installed in this car and it always felt like the front 2 wheels were going to come off the ground. This car in my opinion is worlds ahead of its successors (the Z32 and 350z).
- 2008 Nissan 350Z (Nismo)
- Initially this was my dream car since I was a kid. This car was kind of a pain in the ass and gave me some disain for Nissan in general. Always having reliability issues and everything on the car was super expensive to repair. Even the tires themselves had little tiny sensors that would fail and throw an error on the dash. They cost around $400 to replace. This car was okay to drive, but was very low centered and mostly set up for drifting. I also didn't like the attention and was afraid to park it anywhere in fear of it getting damaged.
- 2002 Mazda Miata (NB)
- Hands down the best car I've ever owned or driven. The most fun, the easiest to work on, the most aftermarket parts available. This car is literally the Thinkpad of cars. It feels like an oversized go-kart in the best way possible. You feel like you're playing Mario Kart in real life when you drive this thing. Light, nimble, and can be flicked around with ease. Perfect weight distribution too!
Vehicles I Admire, but Wouldn't Own:
- 1975 Honda CB400 Four (400cc)
- This was my original dream motorcycle before the announcement of the CB1100. I had every intention of getting my greasy paws on one, but with the fuel injection, ABS, reliability of new vs. used, and larger displacement of the CB1100 - I've never looked back. It's still a vehicle I very much admire.
- 1994 Honda CBR250RR (250cc)
- Absolutely nuts! This motorcycle sounds like the old school Formula 1 cars as it revs up over 10,000 RPM. Super impractical for a dailer driver, but I would sure love to ride one. Maintanance and upkeep would scare me away.
- 1993 Autozam AZ-1
- Super cool. The tiniest street legal sports car. They're super impractical, but seem like they would be a blast to drive.
- 1992 Suzuki Cappuccino
- This is like a minified version of the Mazda Miata.
