back in 1990 my ex-wife and I bought two new cars, Mercury Cougar and Ford Escort, 3 months after buying the Escort, we hit a deer, after that, the car was always in the shop for one thing or another, when the ex and I split up, I kept the Cougar and left her the Escort, I drove that Cougar until 2000 when the digital dash started fucking up and I traded in for a 95 thunderbird, loved that car, and some dumbass wasn't paying any attention to the cars that was parked along the side and plowed into that Thunderbird.
back in 1994 I bought a new F-150, I still have that truck to this day, that truck has hardly given me any trouble at all, just last week I had to replace the original alternator on it, this truck when I bought it had only 5 miles on it, now 13 years later, it has 198,000 miles on it, and still running strong. I plan to drive that thing till the wheels off.
there has been some posts about the Gremlins, one of my brothers had one given to him years ago, those things were short on looks, but were a blast to drive though, same goes with the old Vega's and VW's, as well as the Pinto.
My first car was a red 1988 Chevy Specturm (4 doors).
That car was a piece of shit and after watching my wife drive her sister's hand-me-down 1986 Honda Civic Hackback until 1999 when it had 180K and was still running but just getting expensive to upkeep (and my buddy burn through 2 Fords in 6 years), I decided to never own an American car again.
Since then I have owned:
1994 Acura Integra (still running with about 170K on it)--black
1999 Rav4 -- green (Mrs. Lex wanted this and drives it)
2004 Honda Pilot - black ( I really wanted silver but they were on backorder)
