  • Hmm may have to get another..

    Drove a Festiva for the first time in couple years. I think it was 2 years could be 3 when I sold my yellow 91 L to my dad. I'm borrowing his other 91 Festiva GL since I sold my Ranger. Forgot how much fun this things are to drive.. and alot easier than the Ranger. Probably need to fix the muffler I don't think the city of KCK appreciates the concept of a italian tune-up at 4am.. although great way to have a laugh before work. At 200k it still flew up to.. uhh lets just say over the speed limit a bit. Needs some small stuff but nothing major not bad for driving in rural Missouri. Also thinking along the lines of using a Festiva as a toad when we get our RV.. don't know with a kiddo a 4 door Aspire with Festiva trans might be in order.

              Probably won't be buying anything till next March or so.. hoping to pay off the other car and finally be debt free. Kinda sucks since there's been a few Festiva's and Aspire's on craigslist and probably won't be when I start looking. It's probably a good thing I borrow one of my dad's cars for a few months at a time though. The one I have now was a quart and half low on oil and needs a whole lot of maintenance done.. not to mention a good cleaning.
