yep, wouldn’t take too much work to get this thing looking good and far more presentable as a “$22,500" used car, which begs the question: why didn’t he/she? correct answer: cuz the seller’s lazy. and if they’re that lazy, what else didn’t get the attention it deserved over the past 20 years?

Here’s the thing: this is a fun / pleasure vehicle for someone; not a means of transportation. To me that means we are truely in the eyes of the beholder regarding what is and is not desirable. While the manual checks so many boxes for me that interior doesn’t quite.

As history would have it, on this day 9, of January in the year of two thousand and nineteen, this first ever recommendation to purchase a Chrysler Crossfire was made. And so it is written, let the future generations honor this day, for Chrsyler may soon be lost.

My niece had one. One of the pros she listed for it, no one ever asks you to help them move.

From an exterior styling standpoint, the Merc has aged MUCH better. 

If I am spendingn that kind of money for an aged Karmann built convertible, I’ll pay the extra grand to get the better interior and an SRT badge.

I WANT! It’s fud-it bucks for a low-mileage convertible Merc.

I saw this title and flashed back to two drives for me. I had left work to go to my doctor for a 5 PM Friday appointment that they told me I needed to come for. They told me to bring my parents too since I was just 19. Then in the office they told me I had cancer. I insisted on being the one to drive my car back home.…

Hello from a fellow thyroid cancer survivor! I almost rear-ended someone due to slower reaction times while I was withdrawn from hormones prior to RAI treatment. I didn’t drive again until that treatment was done.

Can I plug the annual Thyroid Cancer Survivors conference in Chicago this year http://thyca.org/support/co…

Good luck to you and your dad. Something that is forgotten all too often in our discussions of illness (be it cancer or depression or anything else) is the stress and strain that is put on the caregivers. I really hope you’re doing something for yourself as you and your family face this down. Enjoying those little…

Erin,

Man, I hate to worry you (especially with little ones at home) but...I actually had a biopsy on my thyroid years before they found my cancer that came back benign, because it was a rarer form of the disease. I had follicular thyroid cancer with poorly differentiate cells so the cells that were biopsied looked like…

Wow.....this hits home.

Being told you have the easy cancer over and over again definitely makes you feel guilty to even complain about what you are going through. Just writing this piece was the first bit of validation I’ve had in a while. There is no harder or easier when it comes to cancer. There’s just hard. It’s awesome that she’s…

Really! My endo’s opinion was that thyrogen wasn’t as good as full-on withdrawal for imaging purposes. Also, thyrogen is still not covered by many insurance companies yet, including the one we have here at GMG. The three infusions would have ended up costing me upwards of 10k.

Congratulations from a fellow cancer conqueror! I’m approaching 10 years cancer-free (lymphoma). Same age range you’re in when I got mine too. Probably the hardest year of my life & recovering from chemo & radiation treatments took another year or so. But I’m still here! Ten years from now, you will be too. Sometimes…

My life partner and soon-to-be-mother of my child had thyroid cancer. It was devastating to see her devolve from a regular marathon runner to barely able to walk a hundred yards without stopping to catch her breath.

Good luck to your daughter! Taking things slow sucks, but it’s so important. And she should definitely feel empowered to throat punch the next person who says she has an easy cancer.

What a well written view into the world of a cancer survivor. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. My daughter was recently diagnosed with Lymphoma... another of the “good” cancers if you have to have one. Robbing time is a perfect description of the treatments, side effects and just experience. We’re…

You and Your Fiance’ stay strong =), and don’t let anyone tell you you got the ‘easy’ cancer, because that’s like saying you’re running an ‘easy’ Ironman. Glad your back on the horse(power), taking your (auto)mobility back one day at a time!

You are awesome and thanks for sharing something so personal, and for helping…
