First one they loaned me was a 1968 Pontiac executive in 1990. Thing was massive. Loved that car. Rather than work for minimum wage to buy a car (which would have been very difficult to do around football and track practice) I made money for a car by pimping out my female English bulldog. I sold her first pups and bought a '66 mustang. I sold her second litter and got a paint job for the car. In addition to being one hell of a damn good dog, Matilda made me around 5k with her fruitful womb.

When I passed my test back in '96, my parents had a green 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited waiting at my dad's office as a gift. Lots of good times in that car.

1993 GMC Jimmy. That thing was a tank! After I gave it up, my brother rear ended 3 different cars (twice with a trailer attached) and you would never be able to tell.

It was a 1976. I got it in 1982.

Dad SAID he bought it for mom - later, he admitted that he knew my mom would hate it/wind up as my chariot.

And mom did hate it - she couldn't handle the 5 speed (MAY have been 4, can't remember), a Mardi Gras cup full of coke (mom wasn't a coffee drinker - had to be a can Coke, in a Mardi Gras cup, with purchased ice/not icemaker ice), and a cigarette all at the same time on the 10 mile bridge between LaPlace and Kennah (brah), on her way to East Jeff Gen Hosp every morning, so, it was bequeathed to me as SOPHOMORE IN HIGH SCHOOL, YA HEARD?

Thought I was SO cool. Dad's of girls I dated THOUGHT they didn't like it......until every now and then, I'd pull up in what mom got after that little Z car....they definitely preferred the Z, cause here's ABOUT what she got....

Wasn't QUITE that whorey, but close.

Parents bought for me? SURRRRRRRE,right. If I wanted a car, they flat out told me to get a job and buy one myself.

First one was a 1960 galaxy ford. Was a tank and a rust bucket, but hey, 15 years old and mobile.

Mine had no engine, or transmission when I got it. Spent all my money making pizza, and a lot of time in junkyards on that car. Loved it.

Buy or give me one? Hahaha! My friend and I split the cost of $250 and bought an Austin Healey 3000. It was ragged but so cool. First one I bought on my own was a 1971 BMW 2002. Great little car

1973 Chevy C10 pickup with no motor or transmission I used money I'd saved from working to put way more big block than any 15 year old should have in it and proceeded to have my license suspended 3 months later due to to many tickets
