: crash - from below post this was yesterday- no one really hurt that i know of - I had a seatbelt on so i am sore now.
First: 93 Ford Escort, bright green. Automatic transmission, 4 cylinders, power moon/sun roof, manual windows, AM/FM/cassette player.
I loved that car, which I dubbed Little Car. It was my mom's, who drove it back and forth to Trenton from 93 - 97, when she gave it to me. It had almost 100,000 miles on it when I got it, and I brought it well over that until I gave it to my brother in 2000. I thought it would die very quickly after that, but it survived until earlier this year. If I'd known it'd have survived that long, I'd have kept it!
Current: 96 Ford Contour, black. Automatic trans, 6 cylinders, power windows, AM/FM/cassette.
Well, it's grown on me, but I'll never love it the way I did Little Car. It doesn't have a name. I bought it from a girl I worked with 2 jobs ago. Got into an accident with it within a week of getting it on the road, so it's had a gaping hole in the bumper ever since. It doesn't have much of a personality.
Best car I ever rode in: 66 powder blue convertible Mustang. Belonged to the cousin of a friend of mine. Dear God, it was BEAUTIFUL. Unfortunately, he lost it on some ice on an overpass, bent the frame and totalled it. I nearly wept.
Car I want at the moment: Chrysler PT Cruiser. I just like 'em.
