    I learned to drive in a 1965 Dodge Dart. Handed down from my grandfather. The first car I bought was a 1960 Ford Fairlane...fins, hand chock...no radio...like driving a tank. Drove it from Illinois to Arizona and for 3 years in Arizona. Sold it for more than I paid....

    First new car I bought was a Mustang..and although I hd never driven one...I bought a stick shift as it was $212 (a lot of money!!!) cheaper.

    I learned....

    Ah brings back memories...the first car I owned was a 64 plymouth valiant...the driver door didn't work, it had push botton transmission, what a car. It cost me $150.

    The very first time I got behind the wheel was in my dad's late 70's model Cadillac. It was out in the country and I got stuck across the road blocking both lanes and a car was like a mile down the road and I began to panic and cry. My dad laughed. Ohh, the memories.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I had a few learner cars too. The primary vehicle was an '89 Chevy Suburban. The actual car that I took my drivers test in was a '92 Toyota Camry. My first actual car was a '89 Ford Escort and that was my introduction to driving stick shifts. I still prefer to drive a manual, bust sadly own two automatics.
