How many cars in how many years?

on my 3rd car and first motorcycle since 1998...

first car - 89 hyundai excel - engine overheated at 127000 miles - i loved that car - it had to be donated, too much to fix the car. It overheated due to the electrical fan stopped working...(blew a fuse or something).

second car - 94 toyota tercel - died 137000 miles, blew a piston rod due to mal functioning injector - injector wasnt firing on time, and hence oil and gas mixed and caused the engine to seize and then when i started it, it blew a rod..

third car - 2000 ford focus - so far running goooD!
 
On my 3rd car since '96.
First car was a '79 Chrysler LeBaron which lasted until the tranny died (thanks to years of my cousin revving it in neutral and slamming it into drive to roast the tires before I got it).
Second was an '84 Dodge Ramcharger, which lasted until it was ~150k miles and started having a lot of random problems, at which point I bought my current car, a '99 Chrysler 300M.
