On what kind of car did you learn to drive?

Logan, we both learned on huge station wagons! Mine was a 1965 ford country squire wagon. How would you like to buy gas for these two today?

Gosh, David, you are bringing back memories! My sister's first car was a green Ford wagon! It was my dad's old company car and he bought it for $1000 and gave it to her. She ended up with the Chevrolet, though, when he bought a new car for my mom. My dad was a toughie and gave both us $1000 towards a car when we were seniors in college. She took the $1000 car. I took the $1000 gift and paid him back the rest, after I graduated, for a 1975 Dodge Omni that he bought for me when I was working an internship after my junior year in college.

I don't remember how bad the gas mileage was on our station wagons, but I'm sure it was no worse than putting gas in our Ford Expedition that we have now. Thank goodness that thing stays parked most of the time these days. We'd sell it if we could, but there is no market for a 2002 gas guzzler like it is, right now. My husband paid $500 for a Ford Ranger pickup truck last year and he drives it all of the time these days. He loves it!

A red Ford Falcon, not sure about the age. 1970 when I got my license so the car was probably 1967-1968.
It was my mom's car. I got to drive it to school on occassion when she wasnt using it for the day. Mostly, I rode the yellow school bus. I loved it when my best girlfriend got her own car.
