My first car was a 1984 Renault Alliance. It was a great little car.

My very first truck was my 1990 Ranger. It was a great little truck. I put almost 100,000 miles on it in college. My dad and I rebuilt the motor in it after I had it for about 2 years and I would still be driving it if it had not been in an accident.

i dont have any pics of it but my first vehicle was a 1984 ford club wagon. It had a two foot extension and was a twelve seater but all of the seats were takin out except the front two. I had a 351 windsor in it and got 8 mpg. all my friends from high school used to call it the melestabus. i still have it sitting in the back yard its just been a storage unit for years now. and it still starts too it just has rod knock from hell.

Default Re: What was your first car?

okay so technically the first car i owned was a dodge dakota, EXACTLY like this one minus the side decals i had on mine. (see attached)


but anyways in order of driven for majority of time.
2001 i think it was...

car was a fun car to drive for a 16 year old...i flipped it over oops

owned this one offically so...(attached picture)
had that for about 2 years, thing had lots of badluck with outside damage! kids vanadalizing it, egged, side mirrors broke off with a bat (or something) and then the kicker. this guy was driving down my street and his front pass wheel came off his car, tire rolled, hit the curb, hit the fence, snapped it back and hit my trucks door -_- big ass dent. guy put tire back on and took off, my sister didnt call the cops or anything DAFUQ????? anyways sold it for 1500 dollars

i needed a car that was better on gas because i was living on my own and my sister got kicked out of the house so i got her car haha drove that for awhile (and then after i got my ranger, she came back and bought it off my parents)


wayy faster than my nissan altima lol drove that for awhile, rear ended someone on the freeway i will fight anyone on this, it was not really my fault! some guy 3 lanes ahead managed to flip his truck while driving...dafuq. and then ofc everyone flipped out and slammed on their brakes, i was justttttt moving over and bang i was too close and i rear ended him, drove it home with a bent hood haha

anyways after that, my parents said, maybe its time to get you a truck (2 weeks after the accident) and i said fuckkkk yeahhhhh! 2 weeks later i got my ranger

i have never owned it and i drive it when i dont have my dd to drive or when it needs to be driven to be kept alive (no one else will drive it but me lol) my sister owned this one for awhile while i had my dakota, she had way more power, sometimes i wish i had her truck but in reality in terms of reliabilty my truck was wayyyy better, handled wayy better and everything actually worked on it! haha anyways not my pic but same thing and it has pitted american racing rims on it


currently a sitting duck, i fried the battery wires, replaced them and we dont know why it wont start, fucking pos insultation shorted the ground -_-

annd.....thats my story!

First car was a 97 Dodge Avenger, it was a pretty cool car; gutless, but sweet none the less. The interior was perfect. It was totaled for me.

Then I got a '97 K1500 ext.cab 350. That was a fun truck. I can't remember how many bent rims and ditches that thing ended up in. Took it to HS drags, kicked a couple BMW's, broke out against a shelby. Only body damage was where my sister hit it in the driveway (that is now fixed) and where i backed over a rope that was attached to the bed.

My true first car was a '94 Suburban 4x4, loaded with every option you could get back then. I only drove that for a few weeks before I got my 2000 4.0 4x4 Ranger, back in 2010. She's been my baby since then, and hopefully will be for quite a while longer.
