1985 Toyota 4x4 truck. <-- Reason there is an 87 4Runner in my garage now.

I beat the living snot out of that truck. Went wheeling EVERY week and weekend, floated her down a river, rescued five Fords and seven Chevys, towed 12,000 of cinderblock to the dumps in her. At 460,000 miles she finally....was stolen!!! :mad2: :mad2:

Truck was found in Oakland, Ca, used in a drug move. Sad. Insurance paid me off.

can I ask if you got what you thought was fair for your truck form the insurance company? I thought maybe you could have gotten it returned to you after having it for so long.

Mine was a 93 Bonneville. Went through an engine and a transmision in that thing. It was good for me and then by brother used it until another engine blew. then we got rid of it. My parents had a newer one and it blew an engine too! dont know whats up with those cars

Oddly enough, i bought my first car, and was given the second.
first car was a 99 chevy malibu, rims, exhaust and a system and i was happy.. til the motor blew. something about a gasket that goes bad or some crap.:mad2:
then i was given an 03 Trailblazer which i loved, and then got sold so pops could have a bigger truck. :mad2:
after an integra and a zx2, i finally made my way back to my chevrolets and bought my tahoe.

sad part being, im 18, 19 in a week. so 5 cars in 3 years.. yea... lol

My First car was a 1994 Chevy Suburban. At first i had to share it with my twin brother... but then he got screwed out of it and given my mom's Purple ford Taurus... Loved that truck but traded it in for a 05 GMC Canyon.... Good truck until i totaled it:(... so then i bought my 2003 Tahoe Z71... Love that thing... Sorta weird how things happen because i told my brother that he would love my tahoe so much that he would want one..... couple months later i was following him down the highway while he pulled his friends trailer that was way too big for his Canyon... he hit black ice, fished tailed out of control and slammed into the concrete divider head on... the trailer was jackknifed blocking the left lane with his truck facing the opposite direction.. then some jerk off in an explorer hit his truck and T boned the trailer... needless to say his truck was totaled along with the trailer and most of the stuff inside it.... but he liked my Tahoe so much he bought a 2003 Yukon Denali....

My first vehicle was a black '98 z71 with a 6" susp lift and 33" tires. That bitch was bad and the lift was yellow...(tacky now) but when I had the truck it was the ****. I was the only one in hs with a lifted truck and plus I'ma bitch. My brother was trying to sell if for the longest and it just became my daily driver (bought it for 8)... until one tragic night I went camping with some friends and totalled the poor baby at the river. I'll be honest I wasn't the best driver, I had just gotten used to driving SUVs or even trucks. But now I wish I still had that beast just because I'm not scared to drive a truck and would tear some **** up. Recently went to the GMFS Meet in Bryan, Tx and there was a '98 all grey z71 doin all kinds of crazy ****. Made me really sad :(
Even though there were all kinds of nice ass trucks, the grey chevy was my fav!

Yep, so RIP to my first ride.

First car given to me was an 88 Lincoln town car. Leaked oil and was a piece. But had a lot of good times with it. Got totaled twice and insurance paid for it. Then used the money to get my first car wich was a 88 blondo 2. Rebuilt it from top to bottom and again got totaled by a drunk driver.

I'm not afraid to say it. A 1993 Ford escort wagon. It was green and I could haul a ton of stuff in it. After I totaled it I got a 1993 Subaru Legacy. I may not have looked cool in either one but a least I wasn't walking.:winner_third_h4h:

My first car was a 93' camaro v6 auto. I wanted the v8 standard that was also at the dealer ship for about the same price my parents would not get me the v8 I love speed and got a heavy foot the car cost 3400 I do believe but my brothers first car was a 95 mustang v8 gt convertible I asked why did he get the v8 convertible when I wasn't even allowed to get anything unless it was hard top their reason was they know I would drive crazy and insurance would be cheaper for a hard top but then my insurance still cost more than his lol but I loved that car then ended up with a 97 eclipse that I had completely custom lowered and bodykited and sold to get a all stock Tahoe that now is tricked out

The first car that I called my own (though still really my parents car) was a 1972 Mazda RX-2 sedan. It had a pretty good top speed for the time (when "double the double-nickle" was difficult to do). The first car that was really mine was a 1977? Saab 99 sedan, and the first car purchased was a 1986? Isuzu Trooper II 2-dr. There have been a lot of cars since.

MY first car was a 1976 Chevy Vega, metal flake grey, chrome trim, ss scoop hood (factory), bullet hole rims, tinted windows, two 10 inch subs and amp (nothing major, I don't even remember what type it was, I think it was a pioneer). I love that little car, for what it was it was a blast to drive.
