Learned to drive when 8 on a 3 speed lawn tractor. Took Driver's Ed at school when not quite 15-1/2 so did not have permit. Parents let me drive after go my permit, but already knew the rules of the road from Driver's Ed.

Didn't actually get a car until 17 because already had a network of friends I rode with. Saved my monies so I could get a nicer car. Ended up buying my brother's old Ford station wagon for $1 so could continue to save for a nicer car. 6 months later got a Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus. 383 slapstick etc of a Cuda, but looked like a basic Satellite esp the wheels. A factory sleeper.
