Oh, where oh where do I begin to let my mind wander?

First off, I've always said if I won the lottery, I'd buy six of the same exact model of S10. Set one up for mudding, one for drag racing, one for MPG cruising, lowered show truck, etc.

Past few years, I've been contemplating a late-90s Camaro with the six speed, 2.2L S10 engine, LRRs and 3.23 rear end. Granted, hills would suck, but if you lived in North Dakota or some other flat wasteland, you could shoot for very impressive numbers.

A Pontiac Fiero with the 3.8L Supercharged V6 Pontiac/Buick mill would be incredibly fun. And dangerous. And fun.

Then there are all the different variations of reverse trikes in my mind. Typical motorcycle rear with VW beam, electric motorcycle rear with VW beam, salvage Honda Fit front drive, electric FWD.... I can never pick a "greatest option" when my mind goes to that arena.
