How did you come to get your first car? Buy it with dad or something? First car is were most of us experience freedom for the first time.
I was pretty emotional with my first car. Had some adventures like it was stolen twice and damaged in a hail storm (second car was damaged in a hail storm too) I had some adventures with it and it was for me a reliable car. Given the history and the fact it was reliable it was an emotional experience replacing it.
