VH1: What was your first car? Ludacris: Aw, man, you don’t want to know about my first car! I was in high school – it was an ’86 Plymouth Reliant, one of those box cars. I bought it from my teacher. What made it so bad was the paint job. When you do a wax job and leave the wax on there for too long, it permanently messes up the paint on the car. But I didn’t care because it was my first car. I just didn’t want to ride the cheese anymore – we called the school bus “the cheese.” I didn’t care what it looked like as long as I had wheels and speakers in the trunk. That’s what we liked doing in the South. We love getting big speakers. As long as our sound system is cool, the car can be completely messed up! [Watch Clip] VH1: Were you the guy who would drive around and pick up all your pals? L: Everybody was trying to get a ride! If you don’t jump on the bus, you're in a cooler category - because the day you’re not on the bus, everybody’s like, “Damn! Where’s what-his-name? He must have got a ride with somebody. Lucky him!” In the car, we’d blast “Summertime” by Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince on our way to school. We'd even in the wintertime, because at that point you’re just waiting for the summer to come.
