CAR BRANDS

[popeyespappy]

My current car is a Mazda MPV mini van. I've had it since 2002 and it still runs beautifully.

Very useful for schlepping the dogs around. I've removed the two rear seats so they can stretch out.

Can't beat a mini van as a dog hauler. We pulled the second seats out of the Sienna which left plenty of room for three and a tighter squeeze for four greyhounds plus had the area behind the third row for luggage.

As best as my memory serves me I’ve owned a Volkswagen Beetle, 2 Chevy El Caminos, Dodge Omni, Ford Granada (European spec), Opel Kedett C , Mazda 323 GTX (funnest car I’ve ever owned), Honda CRX, Mazda Protégé, Dodge Dakota, Honda Civic, Ford Focus, Jeep CJ 5, Jeep Cherokee, Chevy Silverado, Land Rover Freelander, Toyota Sienna, Toyota Corolla and a Hyundai Sonata. Of the lot the 99 Silverado has lasted the longest with the fewest problems. I will have had it for 16 years this July. In that time I have replaced the driver side window actuator twice, a $2 plastic clip that connected the tailgate latch to the handle, and last fall the AC compressor gave out. The Ford’s and Dodges I’ve owned were pieces of shit.
