1966 Dodge pickup (first vehicle)
1965 Chrysler 300
1970 (I think) Plymouth Sattelite
early-70's ex-cop car (don't remember model)
1975 (I think) Chrysler Newport
I got each and every one of these vehicles for under $300, and drove each one of them until they just wouldn't go anymore (average about 1-2 years each). Some ended their lives in demolition derbies. Somewhere in the 80's I also went through a 1973 Firebird, a late 70's Volvo 264, and some kind of little VW wagon. These were all sub-$300 cars, too.
I then drove a $500 1978 Ford LTD all through college. I even lived in it for awhile. That LTD was, by far, the best car I have ever owned. Sorry, Mopar! That car finally died in the desert on a cross-country trip. I traded the husk for the tow into town.
After college, I owned:
1978 Cordoba
1980 or 81 K-car of some kind
1985 (I think) LeBaron convertible
These cars were all total and complete junk. They had unbelievable electrical problems, crappy paint, and just overall extreme poor quality. I wound up selling each one to a junkyard for peanuts. I vowed to never own another Chrysler product.
I then drove a 1987 Volvo wagon for about 5 years. I actually managed to sell that car in running condition!
I then drove my one and only new car--a 1993 Chevy Cavalier convertible--for 10 years until it was so weather-beaten it was an eyesore. I gave it to my down-and-out brother-in-law.
Now I am in a 1993 Dodge Dakota. I have owned it for a couple of weeks now, and I feel that I should have stuck to my vows. It has unbelievable electrical problems, crappy paint, and overall poor quality (should I have been surprised?). And this vehicle was well-maintained! Oh well...it was cheap, it will tow my boat, and I hope it will run for 3-5 years until I can afford a Chevy Silverado. I joined this board to help it live for that 3-5 years.

I just love the Satellite Sebring. My brother's girlfriend in 1975 had a 73 and I couldnt wait to get to drive it. Sadly they broke up before I got my license. Nowadays, I always look longingly at them when I see them at cruz nites.
By the way, in our family, we always had Chryslers (except for a brief period in the 80's - Damn you Toyota!)
Ours was: 1964 Dodge 440 (with a 318 go figure), A 1969 Dodge Polara Station Wagon Land Yacht, a 1969 Chrysler Newport with a honkin 383 in it. That last one became mine for college where I put it in the ground (too old and too costly). Later on, I got a Dodge Colt (I know, I know, its not really a Chrysler). Then I got Hondas, about 4 of them but I made up for it with my 1937 Pontiac (did I say Pontiac? I sold it about a month ago) BUT MY FAVORITE BY FAR IS MY 1998 DAK - love you baby!

Just my 98 Dakota. Dodge trucks outshine the competition by far in my opinion. For cars, I'm a die hard pontiac guy.

Before anyone tries to correct me by claiming Roadrunner should be one word, it was spelled out as two words on the rear panel of the later F-body (Volare style) models. So for you purists, I think Demon and I have both listed our 'runners correctly for their years.
Models listed with the Rallye package have 150 mph speedos, among other goodies.
Corronet 440 is a model also, I'll fess up it didn't actually have a 440 motor; but the Road Runner did (not original, of course)
Lead, follow, or get out of the way
