Taurus for Us!

My first car was a 1993 Mercury Sable wagon that I bought from [livejournal.com profile] equusmaximus about 8 years ago. I called him Remy and he needed a lot of repairs love, but he gave me the confidence and practice I needed to get my driver's licence. Really, if you can drive a giant station wagon, you can almost drive anything. Remy had peeling paint and I actually got a bumper sticker that said "This is not an abandoned car." My husband loved driving Remy in the winter because he was so bouncy and we lent him out to friends who needed a big ride. I regret that we never got to IKEA with him :-D. I hated that people thought Remy was gutless just because he looked like an old beater. That old engine could really move and I enjoyed speeding (just a little) down the country back road. Remy had lots of problems though - such as a finicky electrical system - and the sad decision was made to give Remy to the Kidney Foundation. Really miss him - but I imagine he's been reincarnated into something better.
