HaHa, laugh it up you jokers! It was the cheapest new car we could find (that I felt was safe and would be able to find parts for, unlike the Chevy Aveo). Didn't want something nice and fancy, just wanted something to drive into the ground that got good gas milage. While I would have much rather bought an '05 convertable Mustang GT, that just didn't make as much sense for what I am going to use it for.


Anybody want a '98 Grand Am, 164K miles, needs transmission work?

I'm with you. I'm not buying a nice car until my kids are grown or learn to stop being pigs. :lol: I'll be driving my crap Escort until it dies, but it is good on the gas mileage. :yay:

And fuel just went up ten cents since yesterday. Expected to rise to $2.50 per gallon within weeks. :ohwell:

This is a QT. Correct color or should be look for stealth black?
That's the color. The website let me change it before I saved the picture. I figured you all should be properly warned what to look out for. Huntr will be the one driving it, after all. :wink:
 
Countdown to door ding begins now....

When we bought the Pontiac, it got it's first door ding the same day we picked it up. Parked out away from everything else in the parking lot, went in to Trak Auto to get something, came out and there was a POS fullsize van parked right next to it. Gave us a nice ding in the passenger side door.
When we bought my truck, got the first scuff of the rear bumper when the idiot kid behind me made his manual transmission car "jump" and jumped it into my rear bumper. That was the day after I picked it up. I got a little scuff mark, he had a dent.

How long until the Focus gets its first "battle scar"?

Drove it to work today. Cruised along nicely at 70-80 MPH.

Someone rear-ended me two weeks after I bought my Accord. I still had temp tags on it at the time. :ohwell:

Congrats on your new car!

We paid off both of ours this past fall. It's nice to not have car payments for a change.
