Default Just Wondering!

Same thing I have done since Thanksgiving.....nothing! It sits in my garage covered up until we have a 60+ at least degree day. Sometimes I get crazy and wonder why I'm paying for something I'm not using! Anybody else feel the same?

I signal the bitch to pull the **** over. i get out. And the bitch says i was in her lane. How the **** am i gonna be in your lane when i didn't have room to move to the right because the sidewalk was on my right. And you had hella room to move all the way to the left back in your lane! DUMB BITCH

I know how you feel. this morning this old man in his cadillac just changed into my lane so he could make the exit and pancaked me between his car and the metal railings. I had nowhere to go. I honked him he just raised his hands up in the air. I slowed down and was just microseconds away from hitting either his car or the railings.

I feel the same way too especially i'm paying near $400/month for it.

I've had the car for over 15 months and i only have 4700 miles so far. that means i only drive 300 miles a month. not worth for paying that much money every month and drive so little.

Sorry to hear and see the damage. Make sure you make her insurance pay for EVERYthing.

I've owned the car for about 7 months and I have 400 miles on her The smile and rush I get whenever I DO drive her though, makes the amount paid worthwhile. Also whenever I give her a wash and detail and I get to caress the car's curves... makes it worthwhile. It's an "escape" for me... escape from work, from stress, and everyday monotonous activities. Even though it's low miles, makes it all the more rewarding to look forward to.

I got you beat regarding the miles put on. I bought mine 16 months ago with just under 12K and now it has just over 13K. The good news is that it's still like brand new. You may have me in the financing dept though....I'm paying "only" $285 per month. Is it money well spent??? I'll let you know when I'm cruising with the top down when it's 70 degrees outside! Right now????? Hard to answer!
