Here is the story of my first car
I'll never forget when I got my first car. Getting home
from school and seeing it in the drive way, getting in it and starting it, then
realizing I don't know how to drive it...
My first car was a 2003 Honda Accord with a V-tec engine.
Black four door with leather seats and a sunroof. It was beyond what I imaged
my first car to be. Oh and how could I forget it came with low profile rims, I
thought it was so cool. The one thing I was
forgetting, it was a manual transmission
something I had no idea how to drive. It was a nice summer day and I couldn't
even take my first car out for a drive around the block. If that wasn't bad
enough I had my friends messaging me to come pick them up or drive them to school
and all I could do was say "sorry dude, I don't know how to drive my car".
I spent hours on hours in a parking lot by my house teaching myself how to
drive a manual car. I got so frustrated with it I wanted to just resell it for
an automatic. Even when I got comfortable enough to drive it on the streets I
still would stall it, leaving me frustrated and embarrassed. At the end of the
day I'll never regret learning how to drive stick on my first car. It is a
skill I could use later in life and now I'm able to drive any car I get into. I
wish I could say I still have that car but let's be real, I drove that car to
the junk yard. Taking it to high RPM's and not taking care of it, my first car
only lasted me 3 years. My first car was a huge learning experience for me and
something I will always remember.
What's the story of your first car? Do you still own your
first car?
