Here's a list of the cars that I've owned since 1996 (since I was 16)

'82 Chevy C-10 Pickup....aka Rumble guts. Pictyure this one in red, and about 20x the rust. It was a typical first vehicle. 4.0L inline 6. 3 on the tree. I would have to go to the gas station, put oil in it, and check the gas. Looking back, it would have been a fun project truck, but we sold it for $100.

1985 VW GTI I loved this car. I was sad to see her go. 5 spd, quick little car. I was driving out to Newark, and I lost oil pressure. Shop wanted $2k to fix it. The car wasn't worth that much, so we sold her for $200. Someone fixed her, and I still see her driving around town. I miss taht car. She had personality.

1991 Ford Probe This was a decent car. I beat the snot out of it, and it kept on ticking. The only problem with this car was the automatic tranny. It had the 3.0L V6. SERIOUS torque. I had this car for almost a year and a half, before I rear-ended some woman up in Webster. estimated $3k damage (that never got fixed). I drove it for another year ro so, then traded it in on my current vehicle.

1995 Nissan Pathfinder This ismy current vehicle, and I'm rather fond of it. I'm over 130,000 miles, and still going strong. 4wd, 5 spd. The only down side is the gas mileage (averaging around 17.5mpg in the summer). I've got another year and a half to pay on it. Still trying to decide what I'll do with it then. Currently, I need to fix a gas leak in teh back end. We'll go from there.

My probe had some serious bottom end torque. Top end sucked though.

The car was really good in the snow. Had to pull the ebrake to get it to fish tail. A little too much torque for the shitty tires I had on it though.
