*At some point in his life his father died driving some kind of vehicle, according to a line in his Halo: Reach Firefight dialogue, the line being "Hey hey! My father had one these! ...it's how he died." As with any other vehicle line, this can be heard entering any vehicle, so it is unclear what his father actually owned, though it is doubtful it was Covenant.
