I'm a bit jealous of these people's daddy buying them a car. Even though my first car was my Sister's family wagon that I bought for $1.00, I still had to pay $300 to get the transmission fixed before I got home in it from Rolla, MO. That seemed like a lot of money in 1976.

When I got my second car, the 71 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus hot rod my Dad helped me deal with the car salesman, but it was all my money.

My brother Bob complained that Mom and Dad bought me that Satellite. So I told him I would help him just like Dad helped me with my first car. He got all excited. Had him give me $1.00 and I handed him the keys to the 68 Ford Station wagon. Told him he was getting a better deal because when I got it I had to fix the transmission and he only needed to put a power steering pump in it. He never fixed it. Can't imagine driving a big huge car like that without the power steering working.
