My first ride was a Black '86 Nissan king cab 4x4 with 32's. It was a surprisingly capable 4x... Maybe not flex wise but that thing was great in mud, sand and on hill runs.

My 1st car was a black '72 Impala with 5 spoke rocket wheels.

Then I bought a rusted out chevy vega and put a sweet small block in it. Talk about a sleeper! I embarrassed many a mustang and camaro.....

My 1st 4x4 was an '82 Toyota pickup.......

My first car would technically be my 1972 EL Camino. It's been in the family since new and was handed down to me when I was 14.

This is an old pic, looks a bit different now.



My Dad and I had a project truck too, so I had them both at the same time. I learned to drive a stick in this truck.

"Ol' Blue" My old 1977 Ford F-100

Got a lotta responses pretty quick, also- I want that Mercedes! Saw my old XJ a few days ago, it's new owner took the time and money to convert it into a 4x4, she had plenty of mud on her... was so glad to see my first Jeep happy.

My first vehicle was a 1986 Cherokee Pioneer with shiny black interior & a 4 banger engine. Traded it in for my current XJ. I paid $1800 for it & got $1100 in trade, even tho it had bad lifters or something else that sounded horrible under the hood. Not bad.
