    I didn't get a car until I was in college, but I bought it all on my own with a portion of it financed. I also paid for the gas and insurance that came with it. Prior to buying the car, I worked where my mom worked, so she would pick me up and drop me off at school on the days that I worked and I saved up every penny!

    My very first car was a hunk of junk. My aunt sold it to my mom for $1, and it lasted me a few months. Oh my gosh I loved that purple car! I paid for maintenance and gas, my parents paid for insurance. I was 19 or 20.

    My second car was financed. I put a few thousand down, and my mom co-signed the loan. I paid gas and was responsible for all maintenance but my parents paid the insurance. I had this car for a few years.

    My third car I bought myself. I paid my own insurance, eventually married DH and we combined policies.

    My husband and I recently traded that vehicle in and bought out SUV.
