Oh Fer Cryin' Out Loud: What Was Your First Vehicle?

  • Dawn · 2 years ago
    Mine was an 87 Buick Skyhawk with a sunroof. I loved that car. Till it died.

    Oh Monica you really took me for a drive down memory lane. My first car was actaully a 69 Ford Mustang Mach1! Swwweeet. Until.... I got pregnant. The cool ass cherry car had to go and get this.... we had to get ... I am so ashamed... a Ford Pinto Wagon! AUGH!!!!!!!!! I know you are laughing.


    Yep, kids are lucky now. Except for the gas prices. We paid $2.78 the other day but that was using our frequent buyers card at a grocery store we shop at. It is averaging $2.99.



    Remember when gas was like a buck? Holy crap!



    Have a great weekend, Mon.

    Sweeeeeeeet! That is the word for that car. Oh my that must have been fun. Funny thing, I had a Camaro IROC then, I got pregnant and out came a '78 Pinto again. LOL rather, I had the kid but had to get a more um, well... a car that would fit a carseat without it sliding sideways in the bucket seats!



    Ah the days of cheaper gasoline...........

    Mine was a 1972 Toyota Corona. No one ever wanted to ride with me which was ok because it meant I saved on gas :)

    Hi Sara!


    Thank you so much for sharing! Okay, one of my great friends had this car and it was one of the funnest in high school! Seriously, she had an absolute blast in it - no doubt.



    As for saving gas, you got the better side of it all! I remember my poor friends having to take everyone everywhere... seems to me no one offered $$$ for the trips either. ;)



    Thank you so much for sharing and I like your blogs!!



    Hope you visit again,

    I wanted a Mach1 as my first car but instead got the family van and then a 4 door stickshift which I subsequently lost when I left home a few months later, my first car I bought was an 82 Firebird, too bad I didn't keep that one, I guess they are rare now and worth alot of money :) And somewhere between the 4 door stickshift and the firebird I had a pinto, a mini-truck and a motorcyle...memories

    Julie!


    Funny you and I had some cars in common. Except the motorycycle. ;)



    It's funny how cars can be memories eh? I had the mini truck too. Oh that was fun! I got it stuck on a curb. Seriously. LOL

    All of you really are fast car kind of people :) My father bought me a jeep instead. He said he do not want to see me speeding and getting caught by the police. Instead he would rather see me climbing on rocks with my jeep.
  • Monica Ford · 1 year ago
    :) Running from the cops isn't so fun eh? :)
