Man, at first I thought your car was the 'Stang and someone just sucked at picture taking

I got this when I was 15. It was my great aunt's car with nearly 42k original miles. It only had the 250 inline six, so it was better suited to be a truck than a car. I have a lot of good memories in that car....

A 1966 Country Squire? What's wrong with that? I'm not laughing. You could open the back as a tailgate or a door -- pretty handy for unloading or sitting around quaffing a couple of beers in the driveway.

Exactly what I did too, not to mention sleeping in the back a few times. On those oldies when you folded down the rear seat it was great.

What's wrong with that? "Hey baby, hop in! Lots of room in the back."
Having one of those in high school could be sweet. Think of what you wanted to do at that age in your first car. Then think of those same things in a Neon.

Red X there, bud, but might you be talking about a certain Fairlane wagon that threw BTUs sufficient to melt the tundra for miles around?

He said "through your lifetime" so I'm guessing he understands and doesn't think its all at once.
1, 2, and 3 I just parted with. I just keep upgrading. I actually have 2 cars right now, but I didn't show the other one. I have the 3l SE and SVT #135. I don't keep cars for very long... I get bored.
Oh... and I'm only 19. I haven't even had my license 2 years :laugh:

Yea I was pretty sure you didn't have 1,2 or 3 anymore as in your signature it names all of them and saying "former owner of"
As for being 19 and having 4 in a row. Bite me
my first car was a 92 Ford Tempo, it was a peach/pink color, but it didn't look like that when I first look at it at night. needless to say it was the right price and miles at the time.
anyway I drove it, then my brother, then my father until it was donated
my next car was a 95 Mystique LS
then a 99 Contour Se Sport
and then a 00 SVT Contour
I presently still have the last three ...
