Your first car?
Posted: Thu Jul 09, 2009 9:16 pm
So for those of you who are old enough to drive and have owned a car at least once in your life, what was your very first car like?
I can still remember my first car. It was a 1994 Geo Metro, it was green and had two doors, manual transmission, 3 Cylender Engine. I loved that car, it was my gift for Graduating highschool.
Great gas milage and everything.
But, like any car, I ran into a lot of problems with it. Like, I think the altenator or something when bad on it, I can't remember. All I remember was it wouldn't charge the battery. It started getting rusty and started leaning toward an oil burner.
I just saw a car on the Craig's list that looks just like it, and it reminded me of it. I know you have to be careful when shopping the Craig's list though.
I sold it, and was given a '92 Geo Tracker for getting my own Car Insurance, since I started off on my parent's car insurance. That was fun too, but once again ran into a lot of problems.
I ended up selling that and buying my currant car off my stepfather. So I've had three cars in my short life time. I need a new one because my currant car has a lot of problems.
Currantly I've got a 2000 Chevy metro. This one's significant to me as well because I passed my driving test in that car.
Yeah, I kind of been stuck in the Geo Metro line havn't I?
So as I look for a new car since the one I've got has so many problems, I like to reflect back on the first two vehecles I've had. Having a car is kind of like having a horse, but when it gets old you set them out to pasture so to speak. You get attached to them, at least I do. Sometimes it even feels like that car you have has a soul of it's own. Ok, so my car is no herbie or KITT, but it's got a lot of memories into it.
So, let's talk about your first car or even cars that have had some meaning to you!
