Who else has at least driven...

...EVERY Monte Carlo generation? I've driven at least one MC of each generation, though I've only owned 5 of 6 generations....

Those generations being...

Gen 1 = 1970-72
Gen 2 = 1973-77
Gen 3 = 1978-80
Gen 4 = 1981-88
Gen 5 = 1995-99
Gen 6 = 2000-present

I currently own (thus driven)...
Gen 1 ... 1972 MC
Gen 2 ... 1976 MC Landau
Gen 3 ... 1979 MC Landau
Gen 4 ... 1981 MC SC
Gen 4 ... 1987 MC LS

I have owned (thus driven)...
Gen 4 ... 1988 MC LS
Gen 6 ... 2000 LS

My parents currently have (and, yes, I have driven)...
Gen 5 ... 1997 LS

...and, I have driven an '07 model as well.

So ... anyone else at least DRIVEN every Monte Carlo generation? I know my parents and sister have [tho, my parents have only owned 2nd, 4th and 5th gen MCs, while my sister has owned no MCs]....

This post made me realize something that I hadn't thought about. Although I've owned a gazillion cars (and have driven and/or rode ina gazillion more), my 06 SS is the only Monte Carlo (of any year) I've ever sat in! Weird.

I never have, but my girlfriend uncle has owned one from every gen. Still owns a 87 that is pretty built.

I'm going to say less than 5. I've never even scene the 1st Gen in person. Closest is an Overhaulin' episode.

I'd say yes, given how closely related they are.....
