i'm an official member of the honda club now
had to empty out my old car of everything i wanted to keep...it sucked...i had that car for 6 years...i remember the date i made my last payment of $141.14 (November 14, 2000)...i hated driving, but i still spent some of the best times of my life in that car...went to vegas, and california, and everything in between...ran over random trash cans while drunk...passed out in it twice...drove around lake hefner at night during the densest fog i've ever seen with my head lights off...felt my first girl up in it...went to my first school dance in it...drove away from highschool forever in it...used it as a getaway car for random acts of fraternal vandalism...the heater was broken, the air conditioner blew out leaves and dirt instead of cold air, the window roller upper fell off, the front fender was bent in from casey's fat ass sitting on it misaligning it and causing my door to constantly be bending it making an awful noise,the trunk leaked, the hood had knuckle prints indented in it from where someone hit it, the bumper was cracked from when tyson ran into it in the parking lot, and there was a cigarette burn in the passenger side seat where i always hid my boogers, the door lock didn't work, it was filled with two trash bags of trash, stank of cat piss cigarettes and mildew, it was rusty, and i always had flats...always thought it was falling apart, and i drove it into the ground, but the only real problem was some factory flaw with the timing belt arrangement causing it to consistently break before it was due
wanted to put my old gear shifter in my new car, but it won't unscrew, so i had to settle for my old cigarette lighter (that also didn't work unless you held it in place and turned it, making the connection)...i feel dirty turning my back on my old car, and tomorrow, i'm going to have the scrap yard take it away and strip it of anything that is still functional...think i'm going to spend the money i get from stripping and desecrating it on booze and have a little fairwell party
doesn't matter what special features this new car has, it's not the same...it's not mine...it doesn't even handle as well, and i'm going to get tired of listening to my dissent tape over and over again...still, i'm very appreciative of my parents bailing me out like this...i'd be screwed otherwise...i'm glad my mom got an 05 accord instead of getting me something else too
