Yes for a long time after the accident I was a bit more paranoid. I was not the cause of the accident, you just never know what kind of crazies are out there on the roads with you.

I don't do any of the repairs but my hubby and dad do a lot of repairs on all of our vehicles. I like that they can repair them too, saves us a lot of money when something goes wrong.

Yep I hear that red cars get pulled over more than any other color. I have owned a red car for a long time and (knock on wood) I don't get pulled over. I don't even notice the police looking at my car any different.

Wow, that sounds like a lot of work – Where can I get a grinding machine? I do have a grinder (or should say hubby does). I’m thinking this might not be a do-it-myself type of job. Makes me pretty mad because I wipe the gas off the car but I must have missed some. I’ve never had a vehicle...

You know I never even thought about insurance rates for the added vehicle. Thanks for the tip! I know my insurance will go up because I will have a young driver on it again. Slow is good, you are right on with that one. I wasn’t thinking too big though- I want her to be able to park it and...

Not me, if I was going to buy something with my refund it would be new furniture. I can see how some people would buy cars though with their refund money. A lot of people I know pay off their credit cards with their refunds.

What is a good starter car for a 16 year old? My daughter thinks I’m buying her a Mustang (it’s her favorite too) for her 16th birthday- she is out of her mind. What do you think would be a good starter car? I am thinking some old car that has a lot of miles but runs well. A good used car...

Wow, glad I don't know her! Some people are certainly crazy! I bet he cheated on her or something and she thought, I'll teach him. Wonder if Carrie Underwood's song and video had anything to do with it.

Oh my lord, now that is way too funny! Barf off but no paint either. Tell me he did not use a little soap and water? What a goof ball. I never have puked on my car before, what are you supposed to use to get it off when it's frozen?

I had a glass company fill a hole for me last year. I did not want to try it myself, I did not want to spend the money and then not do it right. It worked well, for the record- it did not chip or run anymore on the window. Good luck if you do it on your own!

What is in your trunk? My trunk is pretty empty (needs to be so I can get goodies in it when I shop). I do have a pair of jumper cables, spare tire, jack, tire iron, etc. in the trunk. In the winter I toss in a blanket, coats, extra gloves and cat litter. The cat litter is in case I get...

Spray them with a glass cleaner and then try to scrape them off. Another thing that works well is vinegar. Mix hot water and vinegar together and spray it on the stickers. Something in the vinegar loosens up the glue and you can wipe them right off.

I see so many Bigger vehicles on the road these days, I don’t know how people can afford to drive them. My car is pretty good with gas mileage so I know the bigger trucks and hummers can’t be. Gas is so expensive these days! Do you own a big vehicle? I just can’t imagine the gas bill each week.

Oh what a sad day! I hate it when I have to retire a car. Hey think of it this way, you had it for how long and it was a good car right? So the car had a good life... man now it sounds like I'm talking about a person.

When did he fill up? It could be bad gas? Or it could be the fuel line - hole in it. Did he take it to the shop or is he going to try to fix it himself? Sounds like it something to do with gas though, if it runs and then jumps.
