It sounds like a lot, but it's not my primary car.<BR/>Frumpunk- The most fun car I ever had an experience with was an old bright yellow Chevy station wagon our dorm councilor owned. He'd stuff us all in it and take us to play pool, go to movies, anything the Rosh Yeshiva would have had apoplexy if he ever found out. One Motzie Shabos, we had 16 teens crammed in and we got pulled over. Believe it or not, the Officer just wanted to let us know we had a broken tail light! Let's hear it for American cars.

It had been sitting outside someones house for half a decade and was once blue but by the time I got it was simply rust. It had no muffler, and we spraypainted the inside and tires blue and red. Definitely a unique car. American cars just seem to have character. Most of my driving was done in my parents 2001 Camry (The same color as yours even) but my favorite cars were American, such as the 1994 Chevy station wagon. I've never had a car like it, the seats were like massive leather recliners, and it had a V8. Sadly, it got stolen, along with my Sony Xplode stereo.<BR/><BR/>My 3rd favorite car was a Volvo 940, it was a 1988 I think. Slow as hell, but built like a tank. All black leather interior, I guess it was originally a luxury car.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3353533543996420432.post-54347850208307114582008-09-16T10:02:00.000-04:002008-09-16T10:02:00.000-04:00Damn - I was using the wrong login!Anyway - Japane...Damn - I was using the wrong login!<BR/><BR/>Anyway - <BR/><BR/>Japanese cars rule!<BR/><BR/>LOZ - PA is great great place to break down, IF you're gonna break down......although, we don't have Chavayrim!<BR/><BR/>:-)Tr8erGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14277587667715295954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3353533543996420432.post-37754813045869368422008-09-16T10:00:00.000-04:002008-09-16T10:00:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Curly Girl Studioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13195352123271608097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3353533543996420432.post-77135047874833066042008-09-15T23:28:00.000-04:002008-09-15T23:28:00.000-04:00how many miles on the new car?i had a problem with...how many miles on the new car?<BR/><BR/>i had a problem with my car stalling out for no apparent reason. a few hours later it would be fine. we got stuck twice in pennsylvania. once on erev shavuot and once on erev shabbat. of course the mechanic said it's one of those things he can't diagnose unless he sees it when it stalls. he replaced some of the likely culprits. and then yesterday, as i was parking . . .<BR/><BR/>i hate when a car is in this state. it's one thing if you now what is wrong and how to predict when it will stall. but like this i'm afraid to drive anywhere. certainly not to PALion of Zionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10342299133387602141noreply@blogger.com
