re: Car you drove in high school

Late 80s mercury grand marquis, but it was my parents, so I only drove it when they'd let me use it. I didn't own a car until after college.

79 Monte Carlo
Maroon

1987 Jeep Comanche 4x4. Purchased in 2004
4 speed manual transmission.

Still own it and its still running today. Been doing a lot of offroad upgrades to it lately.

Blue Ford Escort 4 door. With 12's in the back.

1991 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight.

95 dodge dakota

6 disc cd player under the passenger seat

Whatever farm truck we had at the time. It was either a Chevy or GMC 4 x 4.
I started driving pick up trucks when I was 12.

a Schwinn

1981 Z-28 Camaro. Bought it used in 1984 from a dealer on Airline next to Don Carter. Even with a 350, it only had 190 HP (less than a stock Camry today). I could barely spin the tires if I power braked it. Found out when I tried to sell it, they had rolled the odometer back. The T-tops leaked from day 1 and I drilled in holes in the floor board of the back seat to "solve" the issue. As a junior in high school, I ripped off the muffler and half the dual exhaust taking a speed bump in a Panama City Beach hotel parking lot at 50 mph. Rigged it up with a coat hanger for the ride back to BR. I left it that way after I realized it was loud as frick and every time I hit a pothole at night, sparks would fly. I pretended I was the villain who raced Travolta in the Grease movie.

I had no sense, but I learned a valuable lesson. Chicks dig dumb and loud.
