My Chain of vehicle ownership:
My chain:
-My first, of course, 62 Beaumont Acadian (same as Chevy Nova).
rebuilt it in High School but sold it for a...
-74 Pontiac Astre junked...
-76 VW Rabbit to commute to College... did a bunch to it including an engine replacement, got a good job and traded it for a new...
-84 Hyundia Pony (I know, what was I thinking????) drove it across country twice, it saw me through my moving stage, traded it for something fun...
-84 Honda Prelude, Loved driving it, went all over the Western US with my BF and future Wife, I killed it, when it sold it had 400K on the clock...
-86 Ford LTD, it was a beater but we just bought the house and a baby was on the way... piece of TOTAL JUNK, I did so much to it...
-89 Mazda 323, needed something cheap on gas with 4 drs for the baby... drove it for 13yrs and it was still running fine at 387K when I sold it...
-82 Olds Cutlass when we needed a second car and we moved into a larger house, as the family expanded again, I liked it, was reliable and floated on the highway like a waterbed...
-94 Plymouth Voyager--- family hauler. Not a great vehicle, I was always doing something to it....
-97 Toyota Corolla (still parked out front)replaced the Mazda, which my dad passed to me when he moved from the old house... Fantastic car! its been everywhere and all my kids have learned to drive in it! It's now College transport.
We moved again, therefore, my Wife needed a car, and with the dogs etc we bought a...
-2004 Mitsbishi Lancer Sportback (station wagon) Great car! (still parked out front)
-99 Chevy Suburban which replaced the Voyager so I could tow my boat. A huge piece of junk! Sold it for my...
-98 4Runner! MY BABY! Need I say more!
-89 Mazda 626.... bought this as my oldest sons' first car--- he paid me back the $500 over the year and We've been keeping it on the road--- the last repair was a starter just before Christmas--- great experience for him to get his hands dirty and achieve clarity on car ownership.... I love the Pick N' Pull!
