Let's talk cars
#11
The best car you ever had... I like my '91 Chevy Blazer 4wd pretty good. I put 320,000 on it, then some dude ran a red light and creamed it in an intersection.


The worst car... I bought a '79 Ford Pinto from my sister for like $200 just to use for a semester in college. That was about as long as it lasted.

Your first car... a 1980 Ford Fiesta a bought from my parents when I was in the Army. It lasted about 8 years with 150,000 miles. Tiny, but not a bad car. Great mileage.

Brand loyalty... none.

The cars your parents had when you were growing up... '65 Ford Fairlane Station Wagon with a 350. '74 Ford Maverick. A couple of Renault 8's from the early '70's. The aforementioned crappy Pinto and the Fiesta.

Car stories... too many to mention.

The rode trip I took in my... '04 Honda Civic Hybrid with my dad through Navajo country. I had some contract work up there with the tribe and he went along with me. I always appreciated that time we had together, especially now that he has passed.

I learned to drive in a... Ford Fiesta

I would never drive a... Yugo.

My first brand new car... Ford Fiesta.

My funniest car story... loading three of us into an MG convertible on a Sunday night in the winter on a beer run that took us from Virginia Beach to North Carolina riding on fumes. We never did get the beer (everything was dry around there on a Sunday). We ended up parked in front of some old gas station in the backwoods of North Carolina waiting for it to open the next morning and wondering how we would make it back in time for formation. After about an hour of major discomfort, we decided to roll the dice and see if we had enough gas to get back. We did. Valuable lessons learned.
