Story Weekend: First Car
You may have earned the money to buy it, or it may have been your parents', or you may have stolen it. Whatever! One way or another, most of us have feelings about our first car. I'd love to hear yours.
If you're new to Story Weekend, here's how it works: I pick a theme and you share something from your life that relates to that theme, however you interpret it. Thanks to all of you who've been contributing. As always, there are a few "rules":
▪ The story must be true.
▪ Try to keep it under 100 words. Embrace the challenge! That's about six or seven lines in the comment form. I want others to read your story, and most people tend to skip if it's too long. I know how tough it is to "write tight" but I hope you'll accept this as a challenge.
▪ Avoid offensive language.
Have a good weekend, everyone!

My first car was green - don't even know the model. I paid it for myself. I loved the independence it gave me and it allowed me to work more hours. I loved driving fast with the windows down and the music up.
My first car was a metallic blue Volkswagon Hatchback. It drove like a new car even though it was far from it but I loved it and the freedom it gave me. I had that car for 4 years before I got a brand new 1980 Monte Carlo. My Volkswagon would start with out even turning the key in the ignition!! Loved that car. Loved going all over town with the music on singing to my favorite singers ... the good times!! :)
My first car was a 1979 Metallic Green Mustang. I loved that car. The down payment was a college graduation present but I made the payments. Took me to my first job.
