What was your favorite car?

Since we're on a car theme today...

What was your "favorite" car? No criteria for what determines a favorite. Could be a POS that you had in high school, but it was your first car, and you had a lot of memories. Could be your first brand-new car. Could be your current one because it's the newest and has the most gadgets and features...

I still love my pickup. I have carried so many things in that. Over a ton of stones, actual sections of airplane wings, furniture, brush, Christmas trees, etc. I have a plow, so when it snows, I just play in the snow for a while in the heated truck. I've been on the beach with it. I've owned it longer than any other vehicle.

Re: What was your favorite car?

my 1989 honda civic. it was already "old" when i bought it, but it was the first car i bought all by myself. no one helped me purchase it in any way. i took such good care of that car. it was so good to me and it was amazing on gas.

sadly, my XH sold it from under me to buy himself a sports car. what an ass.

my current car is pretty cool, too.

My current car. Audi, fully loaded. Traded in my "mom" car for something sporty yet practical. I'd always owned sports cars pre kids and lost a little bit of myself when I drove SUVs because we had little ones. Now that they are older, this car allows me to be mom but also get back that piece of me that I feel I gave up for so many years.

What was your favorite car?

My current car- '16 Chevy Volt. It's a plugin so I can go as many as 50-60 miles on electric only and if it's not charged, it still gets about 38-40mpg. I have gone over 1000 miles on one tank of gas and one tank has never cost me more than $14 because it has a small tank. It also has heated seats, heated steering wheel, and i can program artists or songs so whenever it's playing, it alerts me to which station it's on.

2006 Pontiac G6. Loved that car. It was the 1st new car I had ever had. Great to drive but not at all suitable for kids/family life.

What was your favorite car?

When I was in my early 20s I drove a 95 Corolla and treated that thing like a benz. It was my second car I owned and a huge upgrade from my first car (a 92 Corolla but in terrible condition). I took it to the carwash weekly. I was also that jerk who would take up 2 spots so no one would park next to me!! Yes I was that obnoxious! When I traded it in about 5 or so years later I was crushed. The car was still in great condition but I wanted an upgrade.

The very first car I owned. A 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse in Cayene Red. I absolutely LOVED that car. It was only a 4-cylinder and couldn't get out of it's own way getting on the highway, but I didn't care. It was my baby.

I loved my Mini Cooper convertible. Would still have it but it just wasn't realistic for a family.

My current car. I have a '09 Grand Cherokee. Big enough to hold all of our stuff, good in bad weather, and I don't feel like I'm too high off the ground.

Re: What was your favorite car?

Chat Icon I miss my 2008 Chevy Trailblazer SS every day. I loved the way it looked, the rims, the horsepower, the interior... everything. Gas guzzler but best car ever. DH was hit head-on in it by a woman going the wrong way when she cut someone off. He was totally ok... the car was a tank.

Re: What was your favorite car?

I like my current car (BMW 1 series) because it reminds me of another car I had (VW GTI).

It's also manual because I hate driving automatic. What's the point of driving automatic?
