Personal Narrative: My Experience With My Car

I can remember how excited I was when I bought my very own first car. I spent hours and hours fixing up my car exactly how I wanted it. I waited a very long time to buy my own car. I worked for hours and hours, saving money to buy a good running car. I did not want to buy a cheap car. I wanted to buy one I know would last and didn’t have anything more than minor mechanical problems, if any. I knew if I bought one of the streets it was bound to come with something needing to be repaired or replaced. Having proper maintenance done to the car was also my way of guaranteeing my car would at least run okay for a little while. My first car was a 2002 Hyundai Sonata featured with 19’ black rims, with clean interior and dark tinted windows. The sound system was in great condition and for it to be stock, had a really nice bang to it. I absolutely loved my car, It felt so nice and I

The most outstanding moment of my life so far is when i got my first car.It was a cool March morning in Pensacola Florida.I had my drivers test at eight thirty in the morning at the DMV on W street.As i got to the DMV ,we checked in for my appointment we had made.Soon the instructor came out and told me it was my turn.As nervous but as ready as i could be,i followed him out to my car.After he checked to make sure all safety requirement were checked,i began my test.All i could remember was what my parents had told me.¨If you pass your drivers test you will get a car.¨.When i finished my test,i had only missed 9 points.So i went back into the DMV and took my picture for my license.On my way back home my mom said ¨we have something for you.¨.As

During our first run Taylor and I noticed that the car was turning way to the left. So in order to fix this we started our car as far to the right of the track as possible. After our first trials we realized that we needed to fix our string. We needed to cut the string we had attached off of our car and make a new one. When we made a new one me made it a little bit longer than the car and only hot glued it to the hook, not to the frame. Our new string had a loop in the end of it so we could put that on the toothpick. So now we understood that the toothpick did have a real purpose and we couldn’t glue the string to the mousetrap. After we made these changes we ran our car three more times.

After racing our dragsters I came up with a few modifications that would increase the speed of my car. First off, I could have sanded it better and made it a true shell car by making the shape more curved. Secondly, I could have hollowed out the bottom in order to reduce the car’s overall weight. Thirdly, I could have made the car smaller length wise in another attempt to decrease the overall weight. Finally, fourthly, I could have given the car a sleeker and smoother paint job to reduce

The sheen of a freshly waxed paint job, the purrs of a well-oiled engine, how the wind feels in your face as you roll the window down for some fresh air. They make everything about the car seem perfect and polished, ready to own the road.

I had three expectations when I bought my first car. I needed a car that was well built, low cost, and simple to maintain. I expected the car would have no problems, so it can haul me to my next duty station after Navy basic training. The A/C, stereo, and the engine would all perform flawlessly. The only expense I would have would be fuel. I had saved money for months to purchase this car. At the car lot a jet-black, old-school American

Although I love the classes and extracurricular activities that I am in, between an extremely rigorous course load at school, a high leadership position in Boy Scouts, and music practice most days, I can often get consumed by stress and responsibilities. Working on the Chevy gives me a means of escape from all of these responsibilities. When my work is done at the end of a long day, I can go into the garage, put on some light music, and throw myself headfirst into whatever project it is that I am tackling. This gives me time to relax, and it takes my mind off all of the things that I have going on in life. Put simply, working on this car is my means of relieving

Although the rear styling changes for 1957 makes the car instantly recognizable, Chevrolet also changed the front styling as well. One of the most noticeable changes is the removal of the heavy chrome hood ornament. In 1957 they used two separate bullet style hood ornaments that looked like a pair of machine guns pointing out of the bonnet.

It seems like my parents think that modifying my car depreciates the value of it. Sometimes it feels like we have a family mediation to always talk me out of it. They think that I want to do it wantonly, but I have my reasons. The thought of not personalizing my car seems like a repugnance to me because of my certain set of goals in life that many people do not understand. My mom really has no place to make erroneous statements about my creation and how modifying it will make its value lower. The way I brought this car back to life consecrated it to my eyes. It has already made me have many adversaries and people who just want to race. People try to gibe me into joining them at night to race, but I really do not want to bother with their

Automobiles over time have significantly improved over time. The design, safety, engineering and more. These all give us comfort and make us feel relaxed. These days 90%+ of the new cars come with Cruise control. That didn't come standard in the Ford Model-T, the first motor powered Car in US. The Model-T didn't have enough power to even go faster than 30 mph. These days the speed limit on the highway is 55 or more. The Mobile-T didn't come with any of the features that the cars have now. Lets see how this car changing revolution began

The suspensions are able to adjust height damp and how stiff you want it to be. With suspension you are to get out of the corner faster which helps reduce time when getting time on your lap. The bigger brake that was installed on the car was great with the bigger brakes will be able to brake later into the corners. The bigger brakes let you cut time down, every second it cuts off the time on the lap is better than the last. New tires that were installed is efficient it kept up with the new upgrades and cutting time off every lap. The tires for the car were 225/45/16 by Toyo Proxes TQ. Bigger wheels on the track car can save you time with the new tires. The wheels of choice would be sixteen by eight with high offset. Having a bigger engine may help with the horsepower but it can also throw your weight distribution off. The Miata for example, has perfect weight distribution that is 50/50, but some people like to have big v8s in the front that can throw your weight off. So the next best thing is to have a higher compression. With the build like this it can take up to 3 to months, this kind of build you can spend up to three thousand or more depending on what you do. Most people preferences are the turbo or supercharger kit that requires increasingly amount of speed for a car. Building a track car there is some disadvantages for some people which is spend long nights in the garage

Classic car owners face a lot of tough decisions. As an example, should they restore an automobile or leave it in original condition. With the rising value of preservation class vehicles, these decisions become critical. A 200-year-old silver plate is worth more in original condition. In fact, it's respected for the gentle signs of aging.

One of the most important events that happened in my life was just recently, and that was buying my second car. This thought process was in the making for quite a while, considering that I was getting tired of taking my silver Hyundai Elantra in the garage every four months for repairs. For that reason, it made sense that it was time for a new car or a used one, I did not care which all I cared about was that it had to be a manual transmission. In addition, the fact that I outright hate going car shopping, I put it off and off until this past January. Since my mom had surgery that month, she was home and could go car shopping for me, well searching on the computer shopping. Since she was doing that, I did not have to worry about it and she knew what I wanted for a car.
