My first car way back in 1981 was a 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger.  Needless to say, this one tugs at the heartstrings.  Gorgeous example.

I want this! Too bad the tow home would cost a fortune since I don't have a truck anymore.

Well if that address in the ad is correct I could push it home!
Except the wife would kill me if I have another non-running POS in the fleet.

Who wouldn't like a convertible?  Saw this...

Thought you guys would like it.  Hell I think I'd like it.  My wife still hates them...such a shame...it'd fit in the garage (with everything else).

She hates chick cars...Mini is high on her list of dis-likeables as well.  She's a truck girl. Give her a Raptor, or hell a 5.0 Mustang with a stick...a 911 with a whale-tail...a new Vette even...and she'll be cool with it.

I pointed out a new Corolla today in the city, the one with the nice 18's, all shiny black, sharp looking car I thought.  Great on gas great on reliability great on everything and hell it's smokin'! (does this mean I'm getting...old!!??  :o :P)

...she:  :hurl: "that bubble thingy? Yuck!" (I was heartbroken...I love the new Corolla  :'( - sedan or hatch - except the stupid iPad on the dash - she even shi# on the Golf I pointed out...why!? Why does she hate me!!??  I mean cool cars?).

Apparently this looks stupid too - there's no rubber! Those wheels look stupid. Way too big for the car. 


Gasp...!!!  :o  >:(  :banghead: :surrend: :fall:

Old POS rusty base Golf drives by..."you like those, right? It's a Golf, you said you like those."  She doesn't get it...
