But it's your car reflected in the center of it :D

I was like, "Oh, I just have to tell people when they have something on thier face, I can't pay attention otherwise." She kind of laughed and said, "You're going to be saying that alot today." I looked at her like she was a total fucking freak, then my brain finally decided to go, "cross/black smugde=ash + Wednesday= Ash Wednesday:Catholic"

I got all beat red and said "oh, OOooH, yah kinda forgot what day it was."
Ouch. I'm sorry. :D

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't remember until I went to CB for breakfast and they mentioned their fish special. :oops:

Yes. :?

Not as ridiculously new as it was in October when someone whacked it in the parking lot (hit and run), but still quite new. :P

Though I guess interpretations may vary. While it's only been around for 6 months, I've put in excess of 2,000 miles on it for each of those months. That's actually yet another reason I feel bad about seeing it hit - I overwork it enough as is. :(

Also, yesterday was its half-birthday. It should have been a day of festive celebration, not trying to track down errant insurance agents. :shock:

YAAAAAY! Toyotans unite!

Also, Camrys are amazing cars. I actually tried to convince my parents to sell me their old Camry as my first car way back in the way-back-when, but they said they needed at least one reliable car. (Their other car was a Ford [di]Sable, which had cost them enough in repairs and maintenance over the years that they could easily have bought another Toyota with the money.)

How old *is* your Camry? I know of at least two people in my area who drive Camrys dating from 1985 (or earlier) which are still in fine condition, so I've come to the conclusion that cute, spirited Japanese cars age on a completely different time scale than sketchy American ones. :D

My car appreciates the sympathies, and sends back lots of love to its big cousin. 8) :wink:

The lineup for bonnaroo just gets better every year. I seriously have to figure out a way to go. Radiohead, Death Cab for Cutie, Bela Fleck, Cat Power, Nickel Creek The Dresden Dolls, Mike Doughty, Ben Folds etc. etc. etc. etc.

Yeah, I know what you mean about putting a shload of miles on your car. I really don't feel like I drive a lot, but...I suppose I do. When I bought my car, it was at 104,000ish miles. Now I think that it's somewhere around 112,000ish miles. And I've had it a little under a year. I think I got it in July last year. Something like that...

My parents did give me their old Camry when I started driving.

And I was a good girl with it for several years. The only problem was that it leaked oil quite badly. But as long as I remembered to keep oil in it, it was okay. ...And then I forgot to put oil in it. And it died. :cry: So I got a different one!

My new Camry is a 1996. Not a whole lot newer than my old one, but when I murdered my old Toy, it was up to 212,000ish miles. And it would have continued to go strong, if I wouldn't have mercilessly slaughtered it. :cry:

That's actually not too bad - 1,000 miles a month is considered typical, and that's just slightly over that.

Aww. Poor critter. :?

Still, don't feel too bad - anything over 200k miles is pretty impressive. :shock:

Here's to a long and fulfilling life for old Camry... and here's to a hopefully long and fulfilling life for new Camry!

P.S.:

Hmm. I'm sure Subarus have their merits, but something tells me it doesn't get 35 MPG like my Corolla. :wink:

nope :( i don't know the exact milage, all I care about is the cost per milage. It costs my car $.10 in gas to drive 1 mile using some guess work I came out to ~25ish mpg. What sucks is it costs me $1.80 to go to and from school every day :(
