I finally made a list of my favorite tri-fives

After many months of thinking about making such a list, I finally did it. As you'll see, it doesn't nearly include all 55-57 models, and in some cases, similar models are combined.

I wanted to make such a list for a couple of reasons. First, while I've been around tri-fives literally my whole life, I've become more and more obsessed with them in the past 2-3 years. As I've studied the different models more and more in recent years, I've noticed that my tastes have changed a little bit. For example, 3 years ago, you would not have seen a single '57 model on my list, and there wouldn't have been any sedans either ... not the case today.

Second, I want to save this list and revisit it from time to time to see how my tastes might change over the next 5, 10, 15+ years.
