F150 ‘16 supercab longbed! V8
My first (in 1974) was a '69 Chevy Chevelle Malibu. A 2 door with the vinyl hard top. $340.
The automatic shifter knob was missing, so I customized it with a wooden one. And added an 8-track player!

First new car was '80 Toyota Celica lift back. 5 speed manual. I had mostly driven manual trucks and older cars, that were clunky shifters. Two minutes on a test drive with the Celica and it was so sweet. $7500.
