theskooterguy 1 year 11 months ago Posts: 419	What was your first car you bought & drove? Mine is a ocean blue 2011 Ford Focus 2 door hatchback. It is very easy to drive as it has power steering, automatic transmission, cruise control and high-beam switch controlled by foot. It also has a CD/MP3/iPod player, rear independent suspension, reversing camera and a trailer towing hitch! I even hung my Oshawott mini talking plush on the rear view mirror and there's even an Oshawott keyring mascot on my car keys!

bassman21 1 year 11 months ago Posts: 4553	Lucky you My first was a 1987 Nissan Hardbody pick-up. It had power nothing! No power door locks, no power windows, no power steering.......no cruise control. It had a key alarm with a air siren. It was such a luxury when I got my next car.....a 2000 Ford Taurus. Simple things like key-less entry and power steering was such a big deal to me.

Simple things like key-less entry and power steering was such a big deal to me. And I had my first breakdown today! I was driving to the local car wash and an under-inflated rear tyre on the kerb side blew out! So with the help of a neighbour, he lifted the car with the provided jack while I took the wheel off and put the spare on, which was a temporary type. After the car was washed, I drove as carefully as possible to the nearest tyre & service centre to have the blown tyre replaced.

Derk 1 year 11 months ago Posts: 1471	My first car was a 1997 Chevy Blazer. Words can't probably describe what a pile of junk it was. The transmission went out countless times, one speaker worked (and it was busted), bends all in it, etc. I was proud to have it, but looking back, I put more money into it than it was actually worth.

eddstarr88 1 year 11 months ago Posts: 6887	My first car was a 1971 Mercury Marquis Brougham. I bought it from an elderly woman that said it was too much for her to handle on small neighborhood streets. That car had the full list of options including the high-compression 429-4bbl CJ V8 engine, requiring the highest octane fuel I could find while filling up twice or three times a week. That Merc was a lightening-fast bordello on wheels.

Was a high end car back in the day too. Although pretty much all the inside functions cease to operate correctly, mechanically the car is great.
