Here she is. I'm old but she was cool.
This isn't the actual car but it's exactly the same except mine didn't have spinner hubcaps

78 Mercury Marquis station wagon. Beggars could not be choosers. Still good for hauling folks to Skaggs.

Senior year, upgraded to 81 Buick Riviera. Front-wheel drive cruiser. More popular with co-eds than the station wagon. Very good stereo system until the smash-and-grabber got to it. Trunk space good for hauling scuba gear.

G6 year: 1990 Ford Explorer. Four doors, four wheel drive, useful for scuba gear as well as towing a boat. Served me well in BCS, then in many other places.

I drove my parents crazy.

1964 Chevy stepside
inline 6 cylinder
3 on the the tree
No A/C
No power steering

Not necessarily in that order.

Started with
Toyota (which I bought in Oregon and had no AC…rough in the summer)
And end with my Jeep!

'68 Mustang

'67 Camaro. 327 automatic. Wish I still had that baby but sold it when I went into the Army.

2003 Toyota Camry

Didn't have a car, but I had a twin engine airplane!

Class of '04
91' F-150 and a Kona Hahhana 18 speed

1996 Toyota Avalon then a 2003 Dodge 1500 Single Cab V6 5 Speed... no car payments back then were nice

Schwin 10 speed - I rode that bike everywhere. I borrowed my room mates Dodge Dart when I went on dates. I moved to Aston and walked everywhere from there. I looked for the bike and someone had taken it.

'68 Pontiac Firebird !

I was from Waco, so I usually went Hwy 6, but every now and then took the route to Caldwell-Cameron-Robinson-Waco. Several nice long stretches of road with great visibility. Got it up to 140 mph on one of those trips, then had to back off, a little scary.

Loved that car, but hell to work on (no room under the hood, had A/C). Had to use Jack Stands to get to the back spark plugs ! And of course, no trunk.... Still, it was one sweet car !

86 Monte Carlo Super Sport. Maroon.

1975 Bronco, pretty much like this one.

1991 Nissan Hardbody PU ; standard transmission; power nothing. Regular cab. Maroon. Drove it from sophomore year in 1992 until my 2nd year of residency in Nashville in 2003. Was approaching 200,000 miles at the time. Replaced the first clutch but otherwise regular maintenance only. Very reliable 4cyl engine.

Then bought a 2001 gmc sierra 1500 work truck pkg; love v8 engines now

A bike from academy.

A used $5 bike from a garage sale.
It did the job eventhough it was a girl's bike.
If anyone asked, I would just say it was my sister's bike that I borrowed.

1980 Toyota Celica ST

'71 240Z with a Chevy 327 installed. After too many breakdowns, '86 Audi 4000S second half of college.

I'll ask her if I ever get to heaven where she is

A POS Buick!

Funny, hauling to Skaggs ... I worked there through my years!

My family had one of those Vega's in the 70's, but I don't think it was alive by 1980 when I went to College Station

Green 1995 Dakota SLT. 318 cubic inches of acceptable power.

Honda Nighthawk 650cc (bought it off a Zip my fish year)
Had trouble starting it, so I had to get several buddies to help me jump start it
Would leave it at the Dixie Chicken almost every weekend (beer intake) and then walk back (stagger) to the Quad
Sunday would normally be laundry and walking back to the Chicken to pick her up
