@johnbishop Love your story, John. I had two cars that I loved. My first ever car was a beautiful new, Castillian Bronze 1970 Firebird. I loved that car but then the gas crunch struck. I was working for a consulting company and had to drive a long distance daily to get to work. The gas stations were only allowing customers to get $2.00 worth of gas a day! So I was spending a lot of time in gas stations and traded the car in for a Mercury Capri that I never really liked.
My second car love was actually the car I had before my current one. It was an Acura two-door coupe. I loved that car. The seats were the most comfortable car seats I ever sat in. I kept it for a number of years until it started having things go wrong with it. Coincidentally my husband got rid of his SUV and we really needed one for our trips to Maine, so I made the sacrifice and got one. I have always hated it, but we needed it. I am more than ready for a new car again.

In between the Capri and the Acura I had four Volvos, three of which got totaled! I felt jinxed which was why I didn't get another Volvo.

I pretty much do love computers too but so does my husband, also an ex-computer person, so he keeps us up to date on them.
