1975 Buick Apollo that my brother and I shared. The choke was bad and stuck all the time so if it was damp outside, I had to stick a screw driver in the choke to start it. Everybody laughed. It finally died and while in college my dad got me a ...
1976 Cutlass Supreme. Not a bad car, at least I had one! Most didn't wen I was a sophomore (1984/85). The floor on the passenger side rusted out while I had people sitting there and the heat from the catalytic converter started the carpet on fire while we were on a mini-road trip. That was pretty funny. Eventually the transmission went and dad got me a ...
1977 Buick Regal. By far the best car I've ever had. V8/350, while quite a gas hog (probably 9 mpg), gas was cheap then (less than $1). Powerful, solid, ugly color (lime green), but ran great. For some reason, when I graduated from college, I wanted a new car and got a brand new...
1988 Cavalier. Also a good car. Great gas mileage, but going from a V8 to one of the earlier 4L engines was a trip. Had to turn off the A/C if I had to pass someone! I drove it hard, til 1994 when I had my first child and couldn't hardly get a car seat in the back seat, so I got a used...
1991 Transport. It was fairly solid mechanically, had definitely been in a front end collision at some point. It was nice when I had to haul all the baby stuff everywhere. The A/C went in '99 and I can't live without A/C. The ex (who I was still married to at the time) thought we shouldn't put any money into it. So I bought a ...
New 1999 Cavalier. The car I drive today. It's had some issues lately, we'll see how long it lasts. It has 81,000 miles on it now and I hope it lasts another 3 or 4 years, but it's getting iffy. We'll see.
Every car I've had drove to at least 130,000 and I want this one to as well.
