| We all know how un-freaking-lucky I am when it comes to vehicles. Well, I am creating this page in an attempt to make peace with my car history and maybe they'll take pity on me and start treating me better!=) |
| My very first car was a 1971 VW Beetle. I worked my ass off as a car hop at Sonic to save up the money to buy a car and I finally got this one a couple weeks before turning 16. Well, I didn't get started in drivers ed until I was 17, so my bug sat in the drive-way at our house for over a year. After I was in drivers ed, mom took me to the |
| parking lot at UTA and tried to teach me how to drive a stick shift. Well, I couldn't get the hang of shifting and the whole clutch thing (too much for my brain to try to be processing at the same time), so I sold my precious bug to buy an automatic. |

| The automatic I bought was this 1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88. I paid like $1250 for it and let me tell you, it was worth the price. Don't get me wrong, it ran great for quite a while. But, eventually all the problems started happening. First the heater went out in the winter and in the summer the A/C went out. |
| Which is SO not a good thing with you live in Texas. And then eventually the transmission started going out and to get it going after a red light, I had to floor it. And then it'd still take a while to get it back up to speed. One day it finally gave up and blew a rod and the engine caught fire. That was, needless to say, the end of that car. |

| After my white car died, I got my brand new 2001 Kia Rio. Gawd, I LOVED that car! It was so little and silver and cute! |
| I was so freaking proud of that car. It drove like a dream, and I took it all over cause it wasn't a piece of crap like my previous car and I could get anywhere I wanted. But, after a couple months of ownership, on the way to work one morning it was hit by a shitty ass little 16 year old boy who couldn't drive. As you can see, it was totalled. |
