My Cars
I enjoy my cars and am proud of them, as any man should be. Neither would win any awards in their current states, but as of right now including all maintainance, fuel, and insurance I’ve paid less for these two cars than one would to buy even a base model Kia brand new while getting far more out of it.

As you can see, I love my Fords, especially when they’ve got a modular V8 under the hood and turning the rear wheels. I have a strong bias against front wheel drive because I just love the feeling of the rear end stepping out under throttle and then hooking up, thrusting the rest of the car forward.
