Nobody is safe.

The KIA Sportage fleet began with a new one in 1996, silver, far left. I paid over $40,000 for it because I didn't understand "balloon" financing and was in a rush to go fishing that weekend. Paid for itself with 250,000-km of hockey and baseball tournaments. See comments about other two ... #cars

My second new car was a 1996 Saturn bought for $20,000 in North Bay, Ontario ... twice the price of the Dodge Colt. My first dog, Maki, was a beauty husky mix of Samoyed and Siberian. He loved to sit on the roof... It lasted almost 10 years and had 330,000 km on it.

My second car was a 1991 Dodge Colt bought new in Kapuskasing, Ontario in February 1992 ... can you believe they didn't come with block heaters? Temps dropped to -45 that week and it wouldn't start for three days. So cold the radio stopped working #autolife #cars #nostalgia

My first car was a 75 Mustang bought used in Vancouver for $1,200 in 1989 ... drove it across the Rockies and back three times before motoring all the way back to North Bay, Ontario ... sold it for $900 when I was too broke to fill the tank. #cars #autolife #nostalgia
