87 Ford Taurus, 4 banger. Baby blue with the headliner literally turning to dust. I sold it with 87K on it and the fucker broke down on the way home. Poor chick. Buyer beware.

A crummy old subaru station wagon I bought with my McDonald's pay savings when I was 16 that choked out blue smoke and backfired when I parked it. What a piece of shit.

I had a car Datsun with a bad headliner that came unglued and kept falling down on my head. Fuck that was annoying.

I've been lucky I guess. I've never had a mechanically bad car. I've owned imports from Asia, Europe and Russia as well as most domestics.
Probably the car that I would label as worst would be this one

only because of the gas heater that gave me constant grief.

1964 Oldsmobile Jetstar 88 with a cracked block. I pushed it more miles than I drove it, and it was heavy.

Grandfather gave me his 1968 Buick Skylark. It was the only used car he had ever bought. It would leave you stranded in a heart beat. I spent more time working on it than riding in it.

1990 Dodge Caravan. Started to blow smoke from the engine at 70,000. Only every once in a while. It saved it up. Got me through the last emission control check. Then waited until it was time to register again and "let him blow" and traded it in.

A friend owned a Volkswagen Rabbit diesel wagon. Going up hill someone would have to jump out and push.

I'm on my third Grand Caravan. Had to get a fuel filter changed in one of them. It was the only time any of them ever went into a shop. Last one had just under a quarter million miles on it. No shit. They have a customer for life with me.

My son drove a van full of teenagers in my '96 Grand Caravan from IL to FL. When he got home, the front driver's side wheel broke off in the driveway.

Who you allow to ride in your vehicles is your business and I won't judge you for it.
