Did your parents get you a car? Or did you buy your own? If you got one, was it used or new?

Crimson and Clover · 09-02-2003, 07:10 PM

I didnt get a car till after I graduated. I payed for it myself and it is old 1988 Honda CRX

mcgwirefan · 09-02-2003, 07:15 PM

No, no car for me in high school. I got to use one of my parents then and in college when I was home. I didn't get one until I got a job.

Brian Damage · 09-02-2003, 07:22 PM

I had to borrow my parents car during high school

Mijada · 09-02-2003, 07:28 PM

Heck No! My parents hardly paid for anything. I didn't get my first car until I was 22 years old. My father made good money but he always lived under the philosophy "If you work and pay for things yourself you will appreciate them more". Us kids had to buy our own cars and pay for our own college education. If my dad saw that I was working hard and really trying to save up for something he would occasionally give me a hand and help me financially, but for the most part everything I have I bought myself.

In grade 12 I think it was, my parents gave me a car. They bought my mom a new one so I just got her old one which isn't too bad...it get's me around.

¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ · 09-02-2003, 07:35 PM

No. I didnt get my license until 2 days before I graduated anyways. When I got it, I used my Dads truck (

) and said to save up $$ because Ill be buying my own car. Meh, a year later he buys me one and says I dont have to pay him back.

Small Wonderian · 09-02-2003, 07:44 PM

I got my car as one of my graduation presents. It's a 1991 Chevrolet Beretta.

jsizzle · 09-02-2003, 07:52 PM

I bought my own car with a little loan from my uncle,I got it my 11th grade year,and it was a Mazda 626

~LadyJess~ · 09-02-2003, 08:01 PM

I share my car with my grandma. For the most part though, she only uses it from 11-3 on Saturday's so it's pretty much mine anyway. So I've had a car ever since I've had my license.

Krystal Lake · 09-02-2003, 08:07 PM

Not while I was in high school.

I got a '63 MG Midget on my 18th birthday.
