When first got my saturn, it had a quirk that rarely happened: when shifting into gear, it'd take a moment or two before popping into gear and going.

Now it's got a cracked windshield.

But even worse is that the quirk is worse now. I've had my car for a little over a year now and for repairs I'm looking at around $3000

For those of you who don't have cars and don't know why I'll miss my car: it'd be cheaper to trade it in and buy a new car for roughly the same price.

It's sad. This is the first car I've owned where I didn't do anything to the car to hurt it (1988 Lemans Pontiac: 2 replaced radiator tubes, four flat tires, two tires completely replaced twice, and--not my fault--leaking oil), wrecked it (1992 Hundayi Scoupe: I was T-boned on the driver side by another car), or traded it off for another car (1996 Geo Metro--by the time I traded it off it had no headlights and all four hubcaps were in the back seat).

I've had the car paid off and fully mine for five months, and had a loan on it for 12 months. I will miss my baby
