Wow... memories of first car... 1986 Buick Somerset. If you ever buy a car from the desert and take it to Canada without rustproofing it, in 10 years you will have what I had... a rusty piece of junk. I really didn't like that car... had a torque converter lockup problem so I couldn't drive it very far when it was warm out (which was pretty much 5 months out of the year).
Second car was a 1983 Suburban, then a 1985 F-150 (another piece of junk), then a 1979 Trans Am, then a 1990 Lincoln Mark VII (totalled and gone), then a 1972 Lemans (still have it and it has lasted longer than all of my previous cars combined), and finally a 2002 Saturn SC2 ("economy" car). I go through cars rather quickly... they tend to die or be pieces of junk.
