| GM has been around for generations. There are tens of millions of GM vehicles on the road around the world, way more than from any other manufacturer. Hundreds of thousands of people living today have either worked for GM, or for its dealers and suppliers. The purpose of this discussion is to share your memories and experiences, including photos, regarding this company and its vehicles. For example, tell us about the vacations you took in GM cars. Maybe yiu currently own a GM vehicle. | |

My father was so proud to buy this car for my mother - she had only ever gotten used cars before. We had it for about 12 years. I distinctly remember driving in it from NY to Florida on a family vacation with the floor under our feet in the back seat so loaded up with stuff that it was essentially one flat bed for my brother and I to sleep and play on throughout the ride. We wore our lap belts most of the time, but not always back then. I also remember a hole eventually formed in the floor in front of the front passenger seat. It was about the size of a deck of cards. You could see the ground and we used to joke that it could eventually become like the Flintstones' car. Thanks for the opportunity to share. What are your memories?

 1968 Buick Special Deluxe 6-passenger station wagon finished in striking Teal Blue Mist and Arctic White">. It featured a 350 V-8 w/2 bbl carb rated at 230 hp mated to a Super Turbine 300 automatic with column shift. I bought it for the princely sum of $650 in 1981 about two months after I turned 16. It was still running in December 1992. It was the car that earned my unconditional respect and praise for the awesome Buick automobile!
