radix@lemmy.worldto Cars - For Car Enthusiasts@lemmy.world•What was the worst car you've ever owned?English4·7 months agoMy first car was a rusty 72 Pinto. Objectively bad, but there’s a freedom associated with a total shitbox as a 16yo that I’ve never had since.
Later had a mid-80s Cutlass Ciera. It already had an engine replaced by the time I got it, and that engine ran fine, unlike literally anything else in/on that car.
Briefly had a 77 F250. Also on a replacement engine, but this motor didn’t last long. That beast only got like 9 MPG, so it wasn’t worth fixing.
The 99 Jetta was fine for a few years, but when things started breaking, they broke in bunches. Finally a mechanic told me there was nothing he could do, so I had to scrap it.
Amber and Silver alerts were made for the most vulnerable, helpless, weakest members of society that need constant care and attention.
