A '80-something, Ford something that I inherited from my dad. It had cigarette ashes piled 6 inches deep in the ashtray, no airconditioning, no heat, power nothing (except steering), the fabric on the ceiling was coming down and brushed the top of my head and the yellow foam stuff would get in my hair, the gas gauge didn't work, and every 6 weeks it had to go in the shop. Finally, one day, the breaks went out completely, six weeks after it had come out of the shop. For breaks, which the mechanic had put on backwards and my stepdad had to fix. This is a true tale.

Well, I have owned the following:
Currently :
99 Dodge Ram
01 Jeep Liberty
71 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia
Previously:
99 Chevy S10 (totalled)
87 Toyota Corolla (blew up engine on interstate)
76 Plymouth Volare (frame gave way)
74 GMC Sierra step-side (was really my Dad's)
The worst? The Volare. It almost killed me one day while I was driving. The accelerator got stuck and had to shut the engine down on a hill. Scared the crap out of me. In the car's defense, it had that slant six engine which was a dream to work on.

KIA!!!! By a landslide! 97 or 98 (don't recall now). Had power issues. Dealer ripped the dash out, couldn't find anything. Problem went away, but then came back. Car's computer developed issues -- looked up symptoms and codes on the internet, but dealer couldn't find the problem. Blew a tire and discovered the size is non-standard -- had to call all over town at 10 pm to find a tire that would fit. I hated that car!!
It looked pretty and was cheap, but cost a fortune in repairs. Looks aren't everything!

My first was an 87 aro-star. My second was a 1998 ford windstar. It was complete trash. I had problems from day one with the engine losing water and the dealer was no help at all nor was ford motor company. Their toll free number gave me an online site to go to buy mechanic self help books on a car I brought with under 20,000 miles. This car (windstar) cost be over 4 grand in repairs in 4 years (2500 ) on the engine alone. No one wanted or knew how to work on this (including the dealers mechanics.
My last ford for life. let them go under as they deserve it. they are ruiening what was once a great company and I think General Motors is right behind them in service, reliability, and plain bad engineering.

i'm no longer going to lie i'm a bf3 participant and that i must assert i'm no longer keen on CoD yet i do have a appreciate for it BF3 calls for approach no longer only claymores and it fairly works perfect in case you set up your own squad and as for campers all you want to do is a million flank them 2 blowup the construction there in or 3 get honestly one of you squad to kill them however the game is hard on new gamers the first few guns are ineffective it isn't any longer until eventually you get into the better ranks that you start up doing away with entire squads yet once you get accustom to it the game receives a lot more effective and air gadgets are not easy to carry close and the floor gadgets are sturdy once you've a gunner and keep shifting

Ha ha, mine was a 1992 ford tempo, the engine only had 4 cylinders and it had a rusted mufler, cracked windsheild, missing hubcaps, no airconditioner, and those annoying door mounted seatbelts that would rattle and buzz every time the door opened. The thing I hated most about it is when the power windows would malfunction, which only seemed to happen when it was raining, also the driver side window didn't work, ( Yeah, people would give me strange looks and laugh at me when I went to a drive-thru and had to open my door to take my order.)
At least it never broke down on me though.

A used '79 Honda Prelude...but that was probably due to the previous owner, not because it was a bad car at the start.
