lipstick, eyelash, rouge, perfume, & plucking facial hairs, all while driving?
#488 of 554 at least somewhat OT... by explorerx4 Jul 27, 2009 (3:27 pm)
i would keep the acura. if it gets a bit bunged up, you won't feel so bad. high school parking lot can be good place to collect scrapes and dents. my kid went to a movie the other night, next town over. bad news, someone keyed the rear fender. good news, it's our 7 year old explorer, and it has seen worse since the kids have been driving it for the last 3 years.

Replying to: explorerx4 (Jul 27, 2009 3:27 pm) Daughter #2 is officially licensed. At least for now she is technically sharing two cars with me - the 04 Ody and my 99 Celica. In reality this means she's driving the Ody. She views the Celica as my car. Isn't ready to have anything happen while driving this valuable piece of machinery. I've tried to explain that it cost less than $7K and was an Ebay special but what the heck.   I'm happy to have her in the Ody. Good safe vehicle and nothing that all the kids say "Wow! I want ot ride in that!" Replies to this message: explorerx4 (Jul 29, 2009 5:41 pm)

Replying to: fezo (Jul 29, 2009 4:46 pm) the more drivers, the more miles driven, the more often maintenance needs to be done. what a pain.

Replying to: explorerx4 (Jul 27, 2009 3:27 pm) "...if it gets a bit bunged up..."   I sold my Chrysler to my son last week. Already it looks like a dumpster for a fast food restaurant (including a milkshake thrown on the window).   Even if your kid is an angel, it doesn't mean her friends are.
