PiSsEdSiLeNtBoB actually did get pulled over by a cop while driving in an area where bob was "not where he was suppose to be" (lost). When the cop asked bob if he had been drinking anything, bob grabbed the dr. pepper bottle and pointed at it. First ticket ever for da bob.

That's pretty righteous! bob must have been fairly angry at that incident.

Cool, I wish I still had my first car. a 2000 Focus zx3. But sadly, the ice claimed her as a prize.

Oh good. I was afraid I was going to be the only person like that in this thread.

Although I mostly use public transit, because the train stop is only a ten-minute walk and it's free in this area. But if I can't get somewhere by train, I go by bike.

If I need to go somewhere outside of bikeable distance, my partner has a veggie-mobile -- an 81 diesel mercedes that runs on 99% veggie oil. So <1% emissions. Plus we are vegan. Smug little bastards, we are :) yes.

My friend had a grand prix, they were pretty cool, but he broke it when he decided not to put oil in it...

Moved from a terrific 1987 black Mazda RX-7 which had air-conditioning and the rotary engine with 266,000 miles on it to a new, at the time, dark sea green1997 Ford Explorer 4-dr 4WD XLT with a couple of nice amenities. I still have it and will think about replacing it when the motor mileage sees 600K. It's taken 13 years to get to 241K so this truck may outlast me. Say what you might about the tyranny of sports utes to wildlife and small cars this Ford has been the best darn small rig I have ever owned. I can sleep in it. I can visit the Utah Canyonlands 4-wheel drive trails with it. With the exception of 2 catalytic converters that were stolen for their palladium plus normal wear and tear on tires and other parts everything is still factory. I could never do any of this hinterland tripping with the old 1972 COE twin-screw Kenworth semi I used to own during the early part of my working years.....talk about poor fuel mileage (3.5-4 mpg)...LOL

Tried to use the Mazda several times as a glorified sports ute on the trails but because of low ground clearance I kept hi-centering on certain road ruts and darn near burned out the clutch 1 time trying to sail up an elongated 30% grade near Abo Canyon in northern New Mexico back in 1996. Cool car! Hated to part with it but could no longer get cheap replacement parts out of junkyards by the mid-90's to keep it running.

yeah that seems to be a problem with all cars for some reason they just go bad if you dont change the oil or keep enough in it. XD

TO.OF That is indeed horrible gas mileage...

I hope the cars I get last as long as yours have. That's pretty sweet that you keep holding on to it.

#shockzune Oh dear. I hope you weren't at fault. How long ago did that happen?

Re: What do you drive?
 
Oh that was almost 4 years ago, and no I wasn't at fault. I was waiting for a green light when this drunk guy crashed into me at 80km/h... that would be approximately 50mph.

I only got a scratch on my wrist, the guy who drove the other car is still in a coma... Karma I guess.

Don't bother, cars are just a waste of money, time and sanity (up-keep is just annoying).

Stick to public transportation, that's what I've been using the last 3 years. It's good for the environment too.
