Ive always bought my own cars in highschool.
Started out with a nice looking 85 bronco but i could never get it to run right and got 6mpg, then i traded my bronco for my dads 64 chrysler newport i drove that for a while then i wanted to repaint it so i parked it and bought a 1989 chevy 2500 inspected and driveable for 400$ it was the ugliest truck in the parking lot, had a no turn on red sign for the floor and i could fit my arm up into the cab corner:lmfao:, it was a 6.2 diesel and it broke the exhaust off so i ran it with the exhaust coming out right under the passenger seat it was LOUD. Truck still ran great when i sold it for 500$ a year later.
Now i bought my dads ex work car a 02 eclipse 4cyl 5 speed, he beat the snot out of it so im slowly fixing it up, but the main issue now is i think the pressure plate broke. So im driving my sisters vw cabrio for now. ::ghey3:
Ive always hated all the kids whos parents bought there cars for them because they never cared for there cars and beat the shit out of them, atleast ive always takin good care of my rides even if they were cheap.
Glad im out of highschool now though, but now i go to a college in a city where honda civics are EVERYWHERE!!!!!:rant:
