I would say my 91 k1500 Im the second owner I got it in 99 with 110,*** miles on it and as it sits today it has 230,*** miles on it.And I use it for a truck I haul firewood every year, gravel for the driveway, etc.She isnt as pretty as she use to be but I would still drive it anywhere.

1986 Buick lesabre

and the bestest (lol) I have ever owned was a 1993 escort Gt ( factory equiped with the Mazda 1.8 dohc engine) the car run for over 300,000 miles and was still running perfect when I sold it .. The only money I ever spent on that car was for the clutch replacement 3 times and the timing belt 2 times.. That car was a freeking beast... am still in the market for one of those .. must be in good shape though NO RUST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ill have to hunt them down,its been 5 years since I had it.They look real good when done up right.Mine was white with maroon interior the chrome wires set it off.Just make sure you put a alarm on it,mine got stolen and it was too damn easy for them to get it.

I already know that. I've had two cars stolen, including my 1st Box Chevy. I got it back after it was wrapped around a light pole. I put steering column locks on everything now, at least.
Yeah I got mine back it was sitting on its axels in the city tow lot then I when to take off after throwing some steel wheels on it and drive shaft was missing......................I couldent even be mad though cuz my dumb *ss had been out drunk all nite and left the damn steering wheel on :oops:

I bought a rusty 1977 Plymouth Fury for $250 years ago. Had it for 2 years and towed a 12x8 enclosed trailer 3300 miles and made a trip to Boise and back. 30 below weather, always started and never quit. Finally it had an electrical gremlin and I sent it to the crusher. It was such a great car I took a final picture of it (don't know where the photo went)

Best car I ever owned was a 1996 Buick Skylark. Ran great, great in the snow, good on gas (4 cyl). Someone decided to pull out right in front of me one night on the way home from work and it was totalled. Ended up replacing it with a 2001 Malibu and that was the biggest POS I ever had (as far as new cars are concerned, my 1984 Plymouth Turismo I had in school holds the record for the all around biggest POS ever lol). My second choice would be the 1987 Cadillac Brougham. It had some electrical issues, was terrible on gas, fairly gutless, and needed a lot of maintenance, but I LOVED driving that car. I think if gas prices had stayed low, and it didn't have the issues it had, I would still be driving it today lol!

I had a 68 Volvo 122S a few decades ago and that thing was cheap on gas, easy to fix and went to every ski hill within a 100 miles with it packed with friends. In the summer it went to every camp ground within 100 miles packed with friends and beer. We had to keep finding new camp grounds cause when we left they told us not to come back.. :oops: That was the best car I think I have owned

Hard to pick just one! My best cars are associated with memories. My '85 SS and '72 Caprice coupe were 2 of my favorite cars.
