I have GOT to get me a convertible!
So, my trusty steed is in the body shop after a valet parking attendant put a dent in it. You may remember my thread on it. Anyway, the hotel is paying for a rental car. My first car was a Ford Taurus :boring:. The front end wobbled at highway speed, so I took it in. My choices for a replacement: Ford Escape or Chrysler Sebring convertible. I took the convertible. :7 I really like it. Even in the heat of the afternoon, I like having the top down.

I think my mid-life crisis is occurring. :D

1. That's MrScorpio's ride as well, I believe.
I've had 3 verts in my life...two GT 'Stangs and a 450SL. I'll have another someday.

3. It's a pretty sweet ride.
Comfortable, nice-looking, easy to operate top. Something about a Mustang though... :dilemma:

2. As long as the convertible isn't red, your mid-life crisis hasn't
started yet.


This is pretty scary, but a mustang is the car of choice amongst the teens up here. Can you imagine? I would have to get for free to give them that car.

5. Man...I got a Datsun hatchback and was thrilled to have that.
Of course NOW I want the Mustang. ;)
