What kinds of vehicles did you learn how to drive in?

I started learning at age 17 in 2006. At home, it was my parents' 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan. That thing was a total nightmare for someone learning how to drive, with its poor rear visibility and crappy handling. For Driver's Ed class at school, it was a Ford Taurus which was way better for a learner.

I learned with cars and only learned to parallel park with a massive pick up truck on city streets. My dad told me while I had my permit, “If you can park this easily, it’s yours for the weekend.”

@MellyMel22 I had to learn how to parallel park when I got my first car several years ago. It's tricky because sometimes it looks like you have enough space to just park without any problems. I miscalculate just about every time, lmao.

@SubstantialKick I get it, I know many people who hate it. My assigned space is actually a parallel parking space. It’s great when people park over my lines 😡

@MellyMel22 I wish my subdivision had assigned parking 😂.
