    First car was a Lancia Strato Matchbox car...Not enough headroom even though I was only about 3 feet tall at the time. The looks of this thing got me hooked on cars at an early age.

    First driveable car was an '88 Jeep Cherokee Laredo way back in the high school days. Had 2 10" Lanzar (sic?) subs in the back - which drove the neighbors crazy. This was a long time before the Pimp My Ride days...

    Parents gave me a '82 Subaru GL wagon that I never drove.
    Then I bought an '87 Jeep Grand Wagoneer with the very rare ASC power sunroof and vinyl top options.
