My first car was a 1994 Toyota Camry which I got from my sister, who got it from our cousin, who got it from her boyfriend, who has bought it used.

Second car was a 1993 Jeep Wrangler YJ. Lots of fun off road, terrible on road, no airbags, no seatbelts. The thing was a death trap.

Third car was a 2000 Jeep Wrangler TJ. Just as much fun off road as the YJ, but safe on road too. Loved that jeep, sold it for $4,000 when the frame rotted out. Used the money to buy my current Ranger.


I had those three vehicles all in 6 months.

I don't have any picts but the first vehicle I owned sort of was my Dad's old 92 F-150 with a 300 straight 6 in it. Truck had like 165,000 when I got the keys and had 250ish when I got rid of it for my first vehicle I ever paid for - drum roll - 93 Ranger: reg cab, 2.3, 5 spd, 2wd. I got it out of high school was a one owner (guy was like 90) and it had 90,000.

When I got rid of it had 264,000 miles.

1969 Chevelle SS 396. It sat for 8 years and needed restoration. I got it when I was 15. I bought a few books and got to work. Rebuilt the engine, threw in a Crane Fireball cam, Holley 850 spreadbore, and a Holley tarantula intake on it. Went through the 4 speed and re-built the rear end. Brakes, new gas tank, shocks, bushings, paint, and had the chrome and interior re-done. It was ready to roll when I got my DL. Had it until the 2nd year of my first marriage. My now ex-wife totaled it.
