    its been about 3 1/2 - 4 moths now since I`ve even seen my poor old mav so insted of riding in it I`ve been riding in a 93 grand am gt ,it looks better dosen`t need worked on as much has, more power, gets more miles to the gallon of gas, handels better, stops sooner ,has ac ,power windows, power locks , and you can hear the radio over the wind but I hate it and love and miss my poor little ugly poor hanling poor braking slow maverick that has no ac and always needs worked on so what wrong with me :D

    For me I think its because I 'm older and grew up with these cars. So it's like hanging on to your youth.

    The newer cars are nice and all but if it quits on the side of the road all you can do is call AAA, Most of the time you can jury rig an old car to get you home. Been there done that. Russ
