( last seen being bartered away by a heartless yuppie)
Does this happen to anyone else? I traded in my old car last year at a dealership in Virginia which is not that close to my house. Yet every time I see a grandma-beige 2000 Honda Accord (Special Edition, because fancy), I get nervous/sad that it is my old car.
Clearly there is nothing special about the car itself, but I had it for 8 years (bought used in 2004) through high school, college, and when I struck out on my own. I should probably be happy that someone else may be benefitting from the beige-mobile, but I just get sad - like I gave away my old dog or something.
I really love my new (to me) car, so it makes me even more nervous to think how I would feel if I ever traded this one in! Unfortunately for my neighbors and future family, I think I might have to get a very large garage to house all my cars from this point forward.
p.s. this is my first post to Oppo, and I am excited to share my random car-related thoughts with you all.

The real sadness comes when you find yourself selling a loved vehicle. When you see it it brings back all kinds of memories.

Yea I can't imagine it. Now I just need to make enough money to never have to sell a car again.
