It took 39 years...

Postby black francis » Sun Nov 08, 2015 3:18 am

...but tonight I purchased my first brand, brand new car. My cars in order:

- used Chevrolet Corsica
- obviously used 1968 Mustang
- Nissan 240SX
- Ford Focus
- Toyota Tercel
- Nissan Frontier

Argh! I tell lies! I forgot the Ford Focus was purchased brand new. False alarm. Still it's a weird feeling not having my truck. She was a good and faithful steed for a decade. RIP T-Rex.

That is a fine looking vehicle Mr Francis, you decided not to go for the version with the sticking out windows? :lol:

Yeah after twelve years with the truck I was like "it's always made that noise, right?" or "making right turns has always been this difficult, right?"

It's gonna be nice being able to unclench a little bit having a new and hopefully super reliable car. Plus my gas mileage just doubled.

That was the deluxe package. I can only afford so many sticking out windows.

Can we not edit posts anymore? I wanted to fix the picture of the car. Image was too large. Here's the full thing. My coworkers told me they'd make a real Mexican out of me and for the first time in my life I'm looking for rims.

To be fair I'm only half Mexican which also means I have car insurance.

It doesn't have to be good to be enjoyable.

I wish. Unfortunately there isn't so you have to hear about me. Which is my favorite topic BTW.
