Got a new car March 12, 2012, 12:35:27 PM Last weekend, I went and bought a new car (new for me). I got an '09 Ford Focus. It's a 5 speed on the floor. Gets great gas mileage.... I think I'm gonna love this thing! Quote Selected
Got a new car Reply #1 – March 12, 2012, 01:00:59 PM That's a great little car. I service some from time to time. Good luck and remember you have to put a penny in each corner of the car for luck. My mother always does this (it is an Italian tradition to protect the car from evil spirits) with every car we have. EVEN THE WRECKER!!!! Once again good luck with the new car Angel! Quote Selected
