Still have my first car that I bought back in 1992, its a 1975 El Camino. Its just used if I need to haul gas cans or garbage, it has several hundred thousand miles on it, don't know exactly. My current vehicle is a 1999 Chevy Tahoe, have had it for about 5yrs now. Bought it with 48,000miles on it and it currently has 103,000miles. Had a S-10 ZR2 Pickup I bought new in 1998, put 17,000miles on it before trading it in on a new ZR2 Blazer in 2000, put 23,000miles before it was totalled in a accident.

Well... mine would be my first and only car.

I bought it with 19 miles on it. It has nearly 73,000 on it today. It's taken me through numerous US states plus a couple European countries.

It would be toss up between my first car and the one I have now. My first car was a Monte Carlo 1978 I think. It had 120,000 miles on it when I got it from my grandma and can't quite remeber the mileage when I gave it up. Everything was falling apart on that thing, except for the engine. That thing was such a good car as it would never leave me stranded, and seemed to keep on going and going. The vehicle I have now is a customed Dodge Ram Van. It has about 170,000 on it now. I have had it about 4 years and it also has been a great vehicle, never left me stranded either. I will hate to ever let her go but I know the day is coming soon, she is a 1994 and she is showing her age on the outside, I would love to have another custom van though, I love it!

My 1980 Honda Civic - we sold it in 1995, with 90,000 miles, no A/C and an 8 Track Player to boot!

We had so many calls on that car.....asked $500 and could have sold it easily for at least $800.
