'79 Olds Cutlass Cruiser wagon - The Moldmobile, so named because the door panels collected water and allowed the ceiling to mildew. The fabric up there came unstuck, so I stapled it. I did a good enough job that people often took a long time to realize that it wasn't factory equipment. With dents from two states and D.C. I drove it from Florida to Arkansas to Albuquerque to L.A. to San Francisco to here with everything I owned, and I still had a clear view out the back. Happy days.
'93 Saturn SL2 - The Mighty Little Saturn. After the Moldmobile, the Mighty Little Saturn seemed tiny. My first new car, the car I drove Nibs to Powell's in on a date, and the first car to carry my son.
'97 Toyota Camry - The Anonymobile. Nibs & I had to learn the plate number (572 HLY) to keep from trying to break into other people's otherwise identical cars. It served us well, though.
'06 Toyota Prius - The Sanctimobile. I drove the family down to Santa Cruz with it, and we came back up through Sonoma & the redwoods. Five hundred miles on a tank can sure make you stiff, but that was a fabulous trip. The backup camera is a godsend for parking in Seattle for clubbing. Obama bumper stickers in Latin & Hebrew script.
