What Did You Learn to Drive On?
 
1 Attachment(s)
I learned to drive on my parents' Mercury Marquis station wagon with a big mo fo V8. Could burn rubber for a solid city block - and did. Parallel parking was a biotch tho taking the DMV exam. On rare occasion I was allowed to drive it out on dates where mostly we just drove around and got high. I could haul half the senior class at one time so was a popular party designated (somewhat) driver. A tree in our front yard fell on this beauty one morning and that was the end of that. What did you learn on?

1972 Datsun 510 with a 4MT. Did my road test in that car.

I guess I "learned" on my dad's 2003 Toyota Highlander (auto, so not much to learn I guess)? I know I drove around A LOT illegally with only an expired permit.
But I did most of my driving on my 2001 Toyota Avalon, averaged about 50k miles a year, tires lasted 15k with rotations (BFGs rated at 60k, LOL) and brake pads lasted 25k miles because of my Brembo rotors, lol

1970 Duece-and-a-quarter w/455cid engine (7.5 freaking liters!) and a 1973 Chevy Impala w/350cid engine (5.7L). The Impala was Dad's company car, so I was only allowed to chauffeur him around in it. The 225 was a great party wagon - could fit 8-9 ppl in there if you didn't mind getting cozy.

Toyota Corolla sr5. So cheap I put home audio equipment in the backseat. I put yellow lights and sawed off the exhaust.
Looks like this but pearl brown to describe it the best.
