LIST the cars you've owned & give a 1-word descriptor ONLY
Maybe it's just me but I find it interesting reading about what other Forum members have owned. Some of you guys have had really cool cars.
Since we already have "first car" and "first new car" threads, it seems that now an "all cars" thread is in order. But to keep it interesting & a little more fun, here are the "rules":[ul][*] You are allowed a ONE word descriptor after each list item. Choose carefully.
[*] "POS" will be considered one word. An engine size, like "427" or "360" might be a suitable descriptor to explain the fun factor for a vehicle. "Q11.2" would mean 11.2 sec. in the quarter. Be creative!
[*] A list item shall consist of the year/make/model/sub-model.
[*] A car that you've driven, or one that was your parent's or your girlfriend's, is not a car you've owned. If married, your wife's car does count though.
[*] These rules only apply to your initial post. If someone asks you about a car in your list - have at it.
[*] Can you tell I have too much time on my hands?
[/ul]
In order:
76 MGB - FUN
81 Plymouth Reliant - NECESSARY
87 Suzuki Samurai Convertible - RELIABLE
91 Chevy Caprice Wagon - BOAT
94 Chevy Caprice - TORQUER
92 Ford Probe - GIVEN
[ADDED]: PROBE, I forgot. DUH.

RE: LIST the cars you've owned & give a 1-word descriptor ONLY
i got mine for free because one of my dads customers (he owns a shop) bought a new caddy, and his olds was in EXCELLENT shape, but it had 185k on it...it was maroon, and it was massive...i could seat 7 people in it...and it had enough room in the trunk, that i could fit 4 hockey bags! it drove it one summer with a hole torn through the radiator, and i would have to stop every few miles and put some water in it...it would get so hot that it would stall at lights, but it always started up...i never put a single cent into it, and it lasted about three years, with me and several of my roommates using it regularly.....and with abotu 250k on it, it hit a parked minivan while going about 40mph....it literally folded the minivan in half, and the only reason that i couldnt drive it home was because the RF fender was pinned to the tire...im not a GM guy, but that olds took a beating worse than any vehicle that ive ever seen...we would drive it from campus to my parents house (about 45 minutes) with the temperature gauge PAST the red...
..with no oil!

1996 Olds Ciera-JUNK
1997 Dodge Intrepid-trustworthy
Are you sure you don't want to know some of the cars I've driven and have not owned? I had a relative that had a good chunk of money for a while. The Intrepid has currently 131,XXX miles and gets around 27-29 combo of city and highway 32-36 pure highway driving, thanks to 90% gas and 10% Ethanol from MFA Oil and a K&N air filter. It has good acceleration. Have taught a few V6 Mustang and F-car owners a lesson.
