I have only owned one car and it is the very exciting 1998 Nissan Maxima GLE.  I did, however, drive the glorious ‘78 Buick LeSabre and somethingoranother 1980? BMW.

The Buick was a freaking tank and I didn’t like driving it; in fact, I hardly drove until I bought my own car and had to drive to and from Rexburg.

The Bimmer remains the only manual transmission car I have ever successfully driven.  I believe it had the loosest, most forgiving clutch know to man.  I actually really enjoyed driving it, but I tended to stall, and that was stressful.  Then my parents gave it to my brother and that was then end of my fun.

My Nissan?  Well, I really like it.  It does what I tell it to do when I want it to.  It floats on the highway and likes to go fast.  I like its sound system, I like the leather interior, and I like the convenient placement of all the buttons.  It is a good car and I like to drive it.

As for car repairs, I don’t do any of them.  In fact, the only way I know where anything is is because of the nice pictures the Japanese engineers put in my car.  I don’t even think I’ve taken it to get inspected alone; Dad is a terrible (or very good) enabler.  I figure I have the brains to watch the miles and take it to Jiffy Lube if I’m ever off on my own.
