1967 Dodge Coronet 440 wagon. YES, it had a Hemi.


1971 Gremlin X. Don't ask.


1976 Chevy Van. TRICKED OUT interior. Stolen, found on fire in a field near Flint, Michigan.


1971 Mustang II. 4 speed. GOD I loved that car. I should have kept it.


1980 Datsun 310. Say what you want, I hated that piece of shit. It committed seppuku.


1980 Datsun 210. Also a piece of shit. I killed it.


1984 Subaru GL Wagon. 4 head gaskets starting 5000 miles after the warranty expired. I gave it away to someone who killed it.


1991 Ford Escort Wagon. Overall, the best car I've ever owned. 250,000 miles with no majors. Gave it to my oldest, who killed it.


1990 Dodge Grand Caravan. Last Car my late Father owned. I bought it from Mom, and it lasted until 2002. Donated.


1997 Saturn SL2. A hot little car. LOVED IT. Gave it to the next son, he still drives it.


1997 Saturn SL1. Not as fast or responsive as the SL2, but VERY reliable. Uses oil, but gets 40 mpg no matter how I beat it.

1. wow, a Gremlin AND a Mustang II?
those are two of the top 10 "worst" cars ever made.

Personally, I love the Gremlin. Nothing screamed 70's like a Gremlin.

2. That Mustang!
It had the only seats I have ever been comfortable in for a long haul.

That, and the 4 speed shifter was placed PERFECTLY.

Funny how all the REAL bad luck I've had have been Japanese made cars, actually MADE in Japan.
