Your First Car


Recommended Posts

1989 Ford F-150

Pros:

Two gas tanks

One helluva of an off road truck, Drove it in some swamp land and at some points the water and mud got up to the bottom of the door even with my 4in lift. Never got stuck (Y) I still have it just for playing around with.

It was my first car and was great fun to drive :D

Cons

No AC

Wipers got hit by a tree branch and were never the same :pinch:

No front bumper- Well a modded POS

No tailgate

When I first got it the passenger door worked, but one day the handle got stuck and could not close I had to tie it shut. When I got home I took the whole thing apart and got it to close, but then it got stuck again and I could not get it back open, it ****ed me off so much that I jerked the inside handle and broke it in half. :wacko:

No inside paneling for driver side door, just the frame ?you don?t want to know w:whistle:tle: Since it was just the frame for the door, the driver side window was being held up by a 2x4 piece and leaked in the rai:p :p

I will take some pictures and stick them up tomorrow

1992 Chevrolet Cavalier RS

My parents got it used (after being totalled and fixed) and gave it to me when I got my license. Since we got it, it has had numerous new parts put in (probably more than the car was worth) including a new CD player and speakers :D. We sold it a couple of months ago and I'm now looking for a new car. If you know of any, don't post them here, visit my thread at https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=270106.

98 Chevy Malibu

I still have it. It was my dads car and then he gave it to me as a graduation present. His replacement was a 2004 Grand Prix..******. I havent had the best of luck with this car so once I hit 100,000 (if I even get there...) I am going to replace it hopefully with either a Mitsubshi Lancer or Audi A4.

Ha-ha. Good luck with that! My parents have a 1998 Chevy Malibu and it's in the shop nearly every month.

    • Amazon Deal: These AMD RX 9070 XT GPUs are very good offers by Sayan Sen Following the release of AMD's new RX 9070 GRE last week for $549 (our review), AMD currently has a couple of great deals on the more powerful 9070 XT wherein the GPU is on sale for $650. We already covered the Gigabyte Gaming model a couple of days ago which is still live at that price. Aside from that, the white ICE variant is also at the same price (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is interesting to note considering white cards are generally more expensive as they come with a premium attached. Similar to the Gaming model, the ICE card too employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The tech specs of the card are given in the table below: Specification Value Boost Clock Up to 3060 MHz (Reference Card: 2970 MHz) Game Clock Up to 2520 MHz (Reference Card: 2400 MHz) Stream Processors 4096 Memory Size 16 GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Bus Width 256-bit PCI Express Interface PCI Express 5.0 Max Resolution 7680 × 4320 Maximum Displays Supported 4 Display Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Card Dimensions 288 × 132 × 56 mm (L × W × H) (2.7 slot) Recommended Power Supply 750 W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin PCIe Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon™ RX 9070 XT Gaming OC ICE 16G Graphics Card (GV-R907XGAMINGOCICE-16GD): $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $750) If your budget is lower, check this Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti 8GB deal out for only $330 wherein you get the latest James Bond game free. This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified. This is a first-party seller link (at the time of article publishing); ensure that you also purchase from a first-party seller link only.

    • What about it? The old MV2 version will not work.
    • Wow, this is some Iran, Cuba, China, Russia, North Korea-level citizen surveillance right there, the UK's government has gone totally mad. Power trip indeed, their politicians are totally out of control about this issue. They're starting to cross limits I wouldn't have imagined, to be honest. British people, fight this, your privacy and freedoms are in danger. Vote this government out of power.
