Simple questions: When/Where was the first time you drove? What did you drive? For me: August 1988, Holsopple PA 1979 Blazer (2-tone red/white) While I was visiting my Aunt Thelma and Uncle Glen for a couple weeks, my Uncle Glen (who died 10 years later, the day the loan for my 1976 Monte Carlo was approved) took me with to do some errands. On the way back, instead of pulling into their driveway, he turned into the grassy field across the street, parked the Blazer and asked me if I wanted to drive. Naturally, I did. After that, my parents allowed me to move their '81 MC SC (now mine) out of the garage whenever we took that car.

When/Where was the first time you drove?
I was 15, just got my permit. It was outside Tamaqua, PA on old Route 209.
What did you drive?
S10 that Mom used to have. For the record I made her too nervous so I gave up on driving til a friend helped me learn at age 19, lol.

Hmm, 14 when I took off in Moms S-10. Then her *choke* Onmi and 15 driving a 5 speed Omni my brother had. When I finally got a license at 16 I was driving my 78 Monte. I miss that car.
FWIW, I have a clean driving record, too.

not that much really. it was a beast on the fuel. i think maybe 8mpg on its best day. but it would go through any mud hole you threw it at and i did alot of playing around near our pond after it rained since it would pool by it before it ran down into it leaving the perfect mud hole.
