A 1967 Dodge Dart. Dark blue. Drove it for three years. It was a tank! I was rear-ended by a big truck with a camper and got only a one-inch dent on the trunk lid. I was hit hard enough to throw my glasses from my face to the back deck. It finally gave up the ghost and I moved to a 1971 Toyota Corolla.

Scott is going to take Evan to look at a 98 Mustang this morning.

I'm not sure about putting him in a Mustang as his first car but he has enough $ saved to buy it if it is in good shape.

Had to giggle at him because he has been dead set on buying a truck...but boys and sports cars. (Insert the missing purple eye roll smilie here!)

I had a piss green 4 door 1972 or 1973 Chevy Nova with white hardtop.

This damn car hated me. I drove home one day while it humped the road the whole way at 20 miles an hour. I couldn't stop at stop signs or it would just die. And then I would have to sit there for about 10 minutes before I could get it started again. And no, it wasn't stick shift. Thank God I could take very lonely back roads to get home and no traffic to deal with. (and thank God it was before dark when all the serial killers come out and look for idiots sitting on the side of the road in piss green Novas.)

I get home and I stormed in and yelled at my dad to come out and drive this car! something is terribly wrong! He goes out, jumps in it and it zooms down the road like a dream. Didn't do it again.
