just got back from the DMV.  finally got my license. I can go places on my own.

Congrats :D! Lucky bastard I still have to go through driving school.
Do you have a car yet?

yeah a 1993 Saturn station wagon.  all I have to do is wait to get me on the insurance.

Saturn station  wagon?  I've got a Dreamcast pick-up. :)

I might be getting a old monte carlo |D. But if not my mom is getting a new car and i will have to share that and beat up van with her :(. God do i love that beat up van though it is the best passenger vehicle i have ridden in but to drive it is another story.

i love my crappy wagon, but i have to share it with my older bor.

[smiley=laugh.gif]

i dont think that i will ever forget that first car i had.  white chevy celebrity.  something about those first cars that are just beaters, they have some character to them.
... lost my virginity in that car ;)

ah yes, driving is cool. congrats dude and drive responsibly.

holy crap, I just realized I've been driving for 20 years. anyway, my first ride was a 1975 Mustang that I bought for $100 bucks. whata pile. I oughta post some pics of that thing.

Before cars, there were bicycles.  They were good for losing weight.

But now I drive an RX7. Rotary powered pocket rocket. Her subtle song serenades my as I drive, until I put my foot down and release her magnum opus of delight.





I drive too much.

one of my friends drives a 1993 or 1994 (I don't remember) RX7but I refuse to drive with him.  he's one crazy ass driver he goes 90 MPH on average.

well, i just talked to the insurance company.  they won't put me on the policy till Monday.

if your parents are the listed as the owners of the car and you are listed as a "partime" driver the insurance is cheaper.

that's what were gonna try to do, but my mom's are at the beach and we need to go fill out some crap and we need my mom's signature.

now before you guys start with the "you're so lucky my parents never bought me a car"  i should point out that my mom didn't buy it for me, its her old car.  she bought a new one so now i get to use her old one and i have to share it with my older brother.  I also have to pay for my own gas and insurance.

I get 1,000 bucks (total) from my mom and stepdad but thats only because he was stupid enough to gove his son money for a car and now he has to do it for me my bro and his other 2 daughters
Thank god we dont all live in the same house i would probably be in prison for 3 counts of murder...  
:shooting::ar15s: :sniper:

my mom wont give me any money to pay for a car, she wont even lone me any.

My mom isnt even going to get let me get a car probably unless if i can get my unlce to talk her into it. She wants to get a new one like i said earlier, but she does need one. It'll probably be a pickup, cars are mostly useless for our family.

I drive a '94 Toyota Corolla.  It's no sports car, but to me a car is a car...  As long as it's reliable and safe, I don't really need much else.

I'm finally on the insurance now, so I got to go driving today.   so I turned in a few applications for Fred Mayer, Little Cancers, and Hollywood video.  tomorrow putting in applications, at game stop, and game crazy.  

i gotta call around to find a driving school tomarrow.

Ok, so I feel like having a bit of fun in this thread, and being a little bit of a jackass while I am at it.  
Here are the cars that I have had the pleasure of driving.  And mind you I am only 19.

My car.  Which is really my grandmother's car, but she rarely drives it.  
2000 Pontiac Bonneville

(sorry no pics of this one either.)

i will get to drive a 1996 work van(moms), a 2000 work truck(dads), and a 2003 Ford pick up(stepdads)which is the nicest. But like i said this old monte carlo might be coming my way |D.

Depending on which year you are talking, that monte carlo will have a lot of get up and go, and should be a fairly fun car, depending on condition.   Have fun wth it, but only when you cant hurt other people.

i can fix up the car with my uncles there gearheads/greasemonkeys
one of dragraces at lebanon and the other one used to

damn it.  I just backed into someone's mail box today while I was looking for my where my new job is.  lucky for me I didn't do much damage.  I broke a my brake light, so I have to go in tomorrow and get that replaced.  the they guy wasn't pissed that I hit his mail box though (only because I set it back up, and went and told him that I hit it).

that sucks, also were are you working now?

congrats dude. I must admin I'm jealous of you lil bastards...lol I still don't own a car, have been driving for 8 years now, and the newest car my family has ever owned is a 92 (my dad is a cheap bastard). I drive the family ghetto cruiser but it's pimped out with Mario floor mats, steering wheel cover, and fuzzy dice.

are they like fuzzy pac man dice?
i wish i could remember where i saw thoughs

Yes they are! I have a full set of Pac-Man car stuff as well. I also have 1-up dice.

sweet i want my car to have shit like that in it

I think every car needs to have shit like that in it!

When I was in NJ there were these idiotic kids that enter in those car pimpage competitions. The ones that put neons and crap everywhere, ever see the type? Anyway... This car they had at the pool hall has an Xbox and a PS2 in it. On top of that they have monitors in the side windows so you can see the action. Still I think that's taking matters a bit too far. If you put gas in it and it gets you from point A to point B there's nothing wrong with it.

but its even better if you can look cool while doing it
if i had any game system in my car though i wouldnt get anywhere though

Exactly why having one in a vehicle is too much. Aside from that there was a minivan on the highway that had a tv in it. Even though it had tinted windows at night it -was- distracting for other drivers.

My Corolla is a 1990 model with over 100k miles on it and I still average about 30 mpg. Best basic transportation I've ever had.

good gas milage is more important than looks
gas is way to expensive

It's over $2 a gallon here! What's gas prices like where you guys are?

my car is just got up to 200,000 miles today.

did you take a picture of it like on the car commercials?

I filled up today for $1.86 for regular here in Cincinnati.  I think it was $2.06 for premium. But this was at Shell, and they tend to have higher prices.  I think gas could be had for about 5c cheaper at other places; but you run the risk of an octane change.

Oh the whole, gas seems to be cheaper here than in most parts of the country.  I remember talking to some poeple from Maryland saying that gas was over $3.00 a gallon through the winter.  Ouch!

were at 1.87 here but it bounces a few cents from station to station
