My First Car

Oh wow - that must be pretty exciting for the boys! Since I stayed at home for college (and I paid for college myself, but in those days we could), my parents got me a car on July 4th (because the deals were there that day) after I graduated high school. I didn't really have a say in what I wanted - I didn't really know or care anyway . . . but it was a hatchback Nissan Sentra which was fine with me.

I gave up trying to learn how to drive because i am a nervous person when i am already at the road driving . Thus , i never get to own a car even when i am already working and can afford to buy even the second hand one . Now , i let my husband do the driving of our car .

@sishy7 First it was a Maruthi Zen car(Diesel),Then it was Ford Ikon. Again Ford Fiesta. I have decided no more Ford.I think it is costly to maintain .

Mustangs are cute cars. Good choice! My roommate got a red one as a gift. Good luck to your sons. We gave them ours and bought newer ones for ourselves.

A Ford Mustang? I bet you were the coolest bird on the block.

What a wonderful first car you had! Was it red?

Hum...well, why not sell your Ford Mustang? Then, use the money for buying a brand new car. It is one good way I think for you not to remember your ex-boyfriend anymore.

It was a lovely to car to have no matter the reason.

That is really not a good reason to pick a car, but honestly, I have heard worse reasons for buying something... at least the Mustang was a good car for gas mileage, the body is built tight with little or no rattles and they are made to run virtually forever as long as you take good care of them. (Believe me, you could have done much worse!) You know I sell computers as well as cell phones... I was helping a lady pick out her first computer that she bought, herself... I kept asking her all the questions I am supposed to ask to help guide the person to the pc that would be just right for her... She dutifully answered every question I ask, but didn't budge one inch away from the shiny red Dell that was the worst computer she could have chosen.... I kept trying to show her the light gray laptop that had all the features she was asking for, the memory she needed and the speed to play the games she loved... She kept stroking the finish on the red Dell... I pointed out that it only had 2 GB RAM, only had 160 GB built in memory, did not have a fast enough video card for World of Warcraft.... She insisted the red Dell was perfect for her needs... I sold her the red Dell... I did remind her that she had 15 days to return it and buy the one she would be happier with, but I swear she wasn't listening to me... SMH!

I drive our Innova car but now, I am a commuter in tricycles here in my place.

I had a Mustang for awhile. Not one of the cool old ones though.

wow..u had a lovely choice...Ford Mustang,i have only seen it in pictures.do u still own it?

Maybe this same thing wasn't that stupid then. Emotions have it's own reason to be mad: p

I havent had a car yet. how I wish I could buy a Car this year haha! But that is really impossible! Maybe in the future i can buy that one

Oh love Mustangs, always have. Now my son at 16 is a car nut and we go to car shows to see the most beautiful jazzed up ones.

people have all sorts of reasons for choosing a car. Do you still have the Mustang?

I learnt driving but don't drive , I decided I couldn't manage the traffic.Guess am inept at this

Back in the day having mustang was everyone dream car.

Sharp car. I just had to get rid of what was my first car. Ow.

When we buy something for the first time it becomes memory of lifetime
