I remember some of my "old" cars, fondly, but I've never really missed one badly. Sorry about yours. I do HATE to spend money repairing them, even when they are my sole form of transportation!!! I baby my car that I have now because I want to be able to drive it for a long, long time. And boy did I get ticked off when on two different occasions someone hit me! The first time was the worst, about 2 years ago, and there was $4,000 damage to my vehicle that didn't even have a scratch on it before!

Best of luck to you! You definitely need some reliable transportation with a commute like that!
