Bought an 86 excel for $700 back in 91, good little car and for under $1000 couldn’t complain, new alternator was $50 rebuilt and I could put it in myself in 15 minutes. Ah the days of simple cars.

I drink your milkshake type of mining?

Agent Gerard: “I don’t care!!”

Yes, we have a very stupid country (speaking as a Canadian)

A car has become an appliance and like appliances people don’t want any drama with their cars, When you are used to driving, having a car in the shop constantly or breaking down is a pain when we have so much on our schedule. The Wonder Bread of automobiles works great for the majority of the population.

I just hope Car 2 Cops doesn’t have an annoying theme song.

Nothing wrong with this, maybe it’s time to help those that need a cheap car again? How many have been thrown into long term high interest loans for a basic car? Now that the used car market is unaffordable and there are some (usually underpaid front line workers that cannot afford new cars) that have no choice but…

sand gets everywhere..
