2. My last car was a Geo Prizm, before that a Toyota Corolla. . .
kissin' cousins in more ways than (the Geo being the joint venture between GM and Toyota)

They take a lickin' and keep on tickin'.

P.S. My current car is also a Toyota Corolla.

3. cars
my first car was a 1976 chevy nova that i inherited from my parents. it lasted until 1990 with over 200k miles before the engine went. drove great up until it died suddenly. (no a/c installed in the car, AM only radio)

next car was a 1990 plymouth sundance. sold it last summer after 13 years and 140K.


now drive a 1997 hyundai accent. bought it for $2500 with only 56k miles on it. with strictly highway driving i can get 35+ MPG. with mixed driving it gets around 27 MPG. runs great for a little car. although i sometimes feel that if i roll down only one window and a strong breeze comes by, i feel like my car is going to act like a whiffle ball. LOL

peace
david

5. well, my 1990 Prizm passed last month . . .
and with flying colors . . . car still runs great, but the body is starting to show its age . . . I'll just keep driving it until one of us falls apart . . . damn thing will probably outlive me . . .
