Hard to pick a least favorite car, they all had good an bad points
The Dodge Colt from my father. There’s always something magic about your first car, but my father was a cheapskate. Manual locks, manual windows, manual transmission. I’m sure he’d have bought one with a manual choke and crank starter if he could save a few bucks on it. Totalled in an accident at 250,000 miles
The Jeep Cherokee: Bought at 145,000 miles The first car I picked out, so there’s some nostalgia there. Had the American Motors I6, probably the best engine ever made. Moderately expensive to keep up. Still pretty basic but at least had an automatics transmission, and , but loved the way it drives. Finally got rid of it when the floopan rusted out at 250,000 miles, I think the engine would have gone another 250,000.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee. In many ways the perfect car. Still tough four wheel drive, but leather seats, rain sense wipers, electroluminescent gauges, power seat, power locks, power windows, sunroof. But got 17 miles a gallon and use premium fuel, and moreso was a maintenance nightmare. Besides needing a thousand dollars of this or that every other oil change, the Engine needed an upper rebuild at only 130,000 miles. then at only 180,000 miles the transmission started throwing scary sounding codes, but before I could have that rebuilt, the engine died due to rod nock. To the junkyard it went, and I swore to never buy an American made car ever again
The RAV-4, bought at 80,000 miles, What a let down coming from the Jeep. At least it’s a V6, but boring to drive, no sunroof, no rain sense wipers. But at least it runs and as it’s a Toyota I expect to get 250,000 miles out of it.
