Default 11 years and 10 days later....

This is the time it took me to buy a new car and I mean BRAND NEW, something I've never had before with 4 wheels.

Last Monday night I picked up the car I've been drooling over for the past year and a half.

Here is what I was driving. I still have it in case anyone in my family needs a spare car.


Because of this, you can't drive with the windows down or you get some major fumes.


Here is what I'm driving now!!


No rust




Excuse my attire. I just got done cleaning.

Congrats! I've been driving the same car for 11 years also, and it was the family car since 94. Those Toyotas last forever!

Is that your yard? Its huge!

Ah, the old Probe. The best car that Mazda ever made. I had a 1st generation Probe and the damn thing was near indestructible like a Terminator.

Actually when I bought the car I worked at Morton Salt so you aren't too far off.

Yes, that is just the front yard. We have about 2 acres, 1 in the front and 1 in the back.

I had an 89 back in 95-98, then traded it for this one (it's a 95) since too many things started to go wrong with it.
