Default Had to let Her go

Well, last night was a sad night for me, I sold my car. I called a guy that bought my last car on Sunday and told him I was kind of in a bind and thinking about getting rid of my car, would he be interested? Well sure enough, he showed up with cash and man I needed to do it. Now Christmas and Insurance will be paid for, no problem, but it broke my heart to see him drive it away. So, I guess I'll give it a short while and start looking again for a sweet deal. I could probably find something now, but I only have about 5K to play with, and that probably won't buy me another clean 2nd Gen. So, if anyone sees a sweet deal, let me know. Just had to vent.

That's something I've pondered occasionally over the last 36 yrs., but fortunately have always found another solution. Really sorry you had to let her go. I can imagine how much that had to hurt!

Yea, that's too funny. A snowbird comes home to Portland for the summer and wins the race at PIR! Not too many like Herschel left!

They would have had to pry my cold, dead fingers from the steering wheel. Thats a nice car. I believe I would have gotten rid of the camper behind it first.
