Obviously I'm a bit older than you but I had three identical first cars because two of them were basically bought to be parts cars after I wrecked the first one.
I'm not really counting cars that belonged to spouses or significant others in the dozens of cars I've owned either (despite using an ex girlfriend's car as the example of the one that "I" had stolen).
But yeah, there's been a number of times over the years that I've personally owned multiple vehicles... Sometimes as many as 3 or 4 at a time (not including motorcycles and mopeds that I've owned).
Honestly, I can't even imagine what it would be like having only owned two cars in my whole life.
Typically, 5 years or so is about the longest I've owned any individual vehicle.
Easy, just think back to when you were driving your second car ;)
What typically prompts you to buy a new car?
For me, it's always been that I "need" a car for commuting, so I've looked for something reliable and efficient (I put "need" in quotes because technically, the bus routes in my city could have gotten me to work without a car. Turning a 20 minute drive into a 90 minute bus ride isn't super palatable, though).
I bought my first car used and my second car new around the time Cash for Clunkers was affecting the used car market.
