Rarely, in this day & age, can you find the 'one' without running across (or over) a few duds along the way.

Which one? Lol. The other two were just girlfriends and it didn't work out. As for the ex-fiance, well, she left after our daughter passed away. Drunk driver smashed into us, and while I got away some broken bones and other minor injuries, Isabelle couldn't survive with her's. she only had afew bruises, but the hospital told us the impact is what did it. I will never own another small plastic car again.

Well, the car was a gift from her parents. We got two honda's. A '97 CR-V, and a '98 Civic LX. Nice cars, for the most part. The civic was desimated by a lifted truck. I hate to say it, but it was a ford. Though, I don't knock on ford for that. It weas the owner. He blew a light going 95 mph!!!! His *** was arrested, though I forget if he ever got jail time or not. I know we were pressing charges, but my memory is pretty fuzzy from that time.

the ex and I are still good friends. we were great friends before we were together, and we remain that way even today.

thanks, yeah, I've lost allot of family over recent years. And not just any ford, an old ford. Now if only I could drive mine...

Sparx.........Condolences brother. I cant imagine the pain. I know I would not hold together real well if something happened to my family, or my son. He's been my buddy since day 1, and just got his permit to drive yesterday. Look out SoCal, another FTE on the loose! I have to fix up my 95 Ranger for him because he keeps eyeing my Exc and my wifes Expedition.
I see you live in Riverside, just in that area today meeting with the RCC College folks doing a project for them.
