Post your first car and do you miss anything about it?

I was just thinking about my first car. Had it for 7 years through highschool and college. It was so destroyed by the end and was always broken down, but damn do I still have a soft spot for that things. Best times of my life in that ride.

Post a pic of your first car and is there anything you actually miss about it even when driving your Camaro?

Mine: 1994 Chrysler Lebaron GTC. 141hp I live in western PA but man do I miss having a convertible, even if only in use for a few months! This car was a huge teaching tool, EVERYTHING broke on it but I sure learned a lot

This was on her death bed. Someone rear ended me and pushed me into a truck. Smashed up front, ripping top, cheap tint faded purple, dents...I'd still love it some days haha.

im searching my external hard drive now.

My first car was my dads old 89 f*** bronco 2 xlt. I bought it off of him when i was 15. $500.

Since that was my dads car and he passed away back in 2005 I miss everything about it. I actually had 3 cars at one time and my buddy needed a suv so I sold it to him. Well when he enlisted he sold it :(

Did it just bleep out FORD?

Mine was a 1992 3/4 Ton Chevy Cheyenne white long-bed 4x4. Most reliable truck ever.

EDIT: It looked like the pic below, but single cab and without all the weird crap... just plain jane

This was my first car:



Mine was gold, instead of copper, but it had the same trim level. I added a couple things like a tonneau cover for the tailgate, stainless nerf step up bars, and window tint.

I miss two things:

4wd for the winter
hauling capacity


But to be honest, I could've kept it instead of buying new wheels for the Camaro, but I didn't want to deal with its upkeep and park it in the driveway indefinitely. I don't really miss it. Yes I had all my "firsts" in that car, but I never wanted a gold pickup truck to begin with and never really felt that attached to it.

Wow! My second car was a '93 Blazer... blue, 4-door LT... and its' demise looked eerily similar to yours.

However, for me, it was Satan's truck, possessed by the devil. It was so reliable until my mom gave it to me. Then it was in the shop every other week for 9 months, with periodic wrecks in between. Dad said it had bad Karma-- I didn't have any more ugly wrecks or bad vehicle issues after I got rid of it, either.

98 Ford Explorer Limited. Was a work truck before it was given to me by my grandfather. Looked pretty bad on the inside and outside but it was always super reliable even with over 260,000 miles on it. All I had to do were oil changes, new spark plugs and I think new ac joints. New 100 percent sure on the last part. This is my only picture on this computer. Love bugs after a trip to the beach.
