My favorite car of all time was my '84 VW Scirocco, that I paid $900 for. I bought it in Fairfax, VA and it took me to my job in Brentwood, MD every day, as well as...
-Eastern Shore, I think Easton, MD -Baltimore, Annapolis, and DC quite a few times -NYC -St. Johnsbury, VT (actually one Xmas I went home to Pittsburgh, ended up driving around in Ohio for a bit, came back to DC area, picked up some friends in Baltimore, some more in NYC, drove on through to VT, then turned around and came back, dropped one guy off in Annandale, VA, then came back to Glen Burnie to drop off my friend's dog, then finally back home to Silver Spring where I was living at the time. All within a stretch of a week. Only issue was a windshield that cracked the morning we left for Baltimore-NYC-Vermont, probably from the cold.) -Pittsburgh, PA -Dearborn, MI -Fayetteville, NC (I think? don't recall if we took my car or hers) -some place in Ohio where I bought some Studebaker parts while I was living in Dearborn
Good driving will make the roads saferGo read this article on how teenagers had many accidents, and how they suggested that driver education could be improved. I am fairly knowledgeable about safe driving...
and a LOT of places in between.
I sold the car for about $600 after putting about 60K miles on it (and a lot of work into it - it was in better shape when I sold it than when I bought it.) I am truly a dumbbutt.
