What is the biggest POS car you ever owned (spin-off thread)

Triumph TR7

1985 Toyota Cressida

Comfy arse soft cloth seats and sweet moonroof, but still a ugly piece in 2004

2001 Grand Marquis

1987 BMW 325is..purchased it used when I was in college and it gave me nothing but problems. Traded that SOB in for an Acura and never looked back.

I’ve got a ‘14 model with 141k on it.

Zero issues, did tires and brakes around 90k, change the oil every 8-9k.

I don’t beat it up.

The shifter is crappy, there’s a recall for it but I don’t want the “fixed” version.

Lexus for Mrs. Füt and Honda Accords for the little Feats means I don’t have any first-hand knowledge of what a lemon is.

1976 Toyota Pickup Truck, from ~1992 to ~1996 at LSU.

Acquired it when my roommate got his second DWI. Call from jail was "can you bail me out for $500?". My response was "my Tercel died, you don't need your truck, its mine if I bail you out".

Couple years later I broke the drive shaft on a push-start. A friend helped me make a new one out of steel pipe and the existing u-joints.

If anyone parked like an a-hole at CEBA in those years, and got your precious Maxima or new truck dented, that was me enforcing parking decency, with my blue parking enforcer.

1978 304 V8 CJ-7 (purchased in 84?)
Crap broke on that thing all the time. Of course I ragged it..The one that broke that had me laughing was the bell-housing broke where the clutch bracket attached. I mean come on..I had to start the car in first gear to get home. I had for 3 years.

Edit: I forgot to add that I could start it without a key. This was common with Jeeps. All you had to do was with the steering wheel locked just move it back and forth and turn the ignition. I proved that on many Jeeps.

1992 Nissan pickup
2007 Nissan Altima (the wife's)

2001 BMW 528. Little things broke on that car constantly. I had it less than a year and got rid of it

Isuzu Impulse, would start using any key
