More Kerry Car Troubles: 'Purple Heart 3' Vanity Plate, Outsourced SUV

Unlike most combat vets, Sen. John Kerry has never been shy over bragging about his wartime experience. But even we were surprised to hear that his 1985 Dodge is plastered with vanity plates that read "Purple Heart 3."

The Boston Herald's Howie Carr has done some research into the Kerry family's fleet of vehicles and has turned up some interesting details.

Apart from the Purple Heart plates, Carr has discovered that Kerry's wife, Teresa, is hiding another family SUV at their estate on Nantucket, in addition to the Chevy Surburban the Heinz Kerrys keep at their Idaho mansion.

And for this one, the would-be first family decided to outsource.

The plates on the British-made 1997 Land Rover Defender driven by the woman who wants to be America's next first lady read MOZMBQ - a reminder of the country Heinz Kerry recently lamented she wished she'd never left.

"I can't believe my family left Africa and came to this country," she griped to the New York Post's Cindy Adams two weeks ago. "I can't believe I ever even married an American."

The plates on Teresa's 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee read HZ 57, a reference to the company whose management has spent the last few months sending out letters to the media insisting it has nothing to do with her.

And it turns out there's another outsourced car in the Kerry family's vehicular portfolio. The stepson of the Democrats' man-of-the-people candidate tools around in a nifty 2002 Porsche 911
