Festiva as only vehicle?

[econoaddict]

My only transportation is a Festiva. Mine gets about a 1000 miles or more a week put on it. But I have a backup Festiva just in case of a major breakdown. I figure I have saved enough in gas to almost find another one.

My daily transportation is my festiva, I only put around 500 a week on mine and like the qoute...I have a backup festy as well. I call it sparetiva.

Thanks for the compliments. Took awhile to find identical red ones, in standard trans. Junked the blue GL when the 3rd red one came up. Difficult to find clean ones, especially up here (Ottawa, Ontario) where the salt has eaten away virtually all of the daily-driver Festivas. These ones are still in good shape because they've been oil-sprayed right from the start. 250K on all of them because they're driven in rotation.
One of these days I'll decide to get a life.

I've been driving my festy as a dd for over 2 yrs now and wouldint trade it for the world! Well maybe a ford gt-tt! I prefer to drive my festy over my jeep bc of mileage and the tires on the festy aren't 450$ each lol

Have been using Festivas as daily drivers for 6 years. Even drove as an auto parts courier for over a year. However I own 3 of these cars so when one is down I switch plates and drive another. Picture included is from yesterday.

Yuuuuuuup my 91 Festy is all I got. It has its qwarks but Im working on them best I can in my non car repair in the driveway household (LoL working on it when no1 is around & when weather permits )

Mine's been my only car since my mom gave it to me in 2001 after high school. I love it and am going to cry when it eventually dies, but hope to get another 100k miles out of it at least. I love it even more when I have to fill up a tank on a full size car *cringe*.

Still wish you could too, but I am not hurt about it. I am trying to convince my wife instead of getting another car payment or a different DD, we should just put my other (3rd) festiva on the road that needs some work as it gets good gas mileage and would save us from more debt for another car. She just can't wrap her head around a vehicle that is 20 years old getting her safely around without worrying about it breaking down. It is annoying really to try and win the argument because it is hard to find parts sometimes, but Festivas are the only cars I have ever owned that I truly trust. ...for the most part.

Solution: Sell all aftermarket race parts off the "Roller" and use massive amounts of profit to fix up the DD. Then install a diamond ring and she will agree.
