Two of my dad's eleven cars are Fieros. Many years ago, chum1 was banned from phog because I was caught having a discussion with my own sock, FieroHawk. FieroHawk would set 'em up and chum1 would knock 'em down.

I knew a girl that drove an electric Fiero that her (engineer or something) dad built for her. It was super quiet. She liked to roll up behind you in the parking lot and just sit there till you turned around and freaked cause there was a car sitting right in front of you. Lol, she was such a prankster.

posted in chronological order.

1. 1992 chevy caviler. like this but no light damage. was a fantastic high school car. rev limit cut out at 114mph though

2. 2000 ford mustang convertable. girls loved this. was pushed off i-435 by some bad person and totaled.

3. 2001 lincoln LS. my favorite car by far. i like drug dealer looking cars.

4. 2002 eddie bauer explorer. flipped it on a country road after 3 months.

5. 2004 eddie bauer explorer. current, same as above with more options and newer.

except for it being unusually heavy, it's about a perfect car. but being really heavy made it nails in the snow, even with RWD.

mich bro y-l_a2 actually had that truck stolen. he was at a party and left the keys in it. luckily he never kept any gas in it, he noticed it was stolen a little later and called the cops. I mean it was a blue two tone ford truck pretty rough ridin' easy to spot. well anyways they found it on a gas station on highway 24 close to where the party was. the cops got it back and y-l_a2bro also got a a full tank. these guys also apparently had a bunch of crap they had stolen in the back of the truck and were headed to topeka. weird story.

nicname's bro (squawk) was riding bitch (on the console) in a Fiero when him and his buddies (EMAWs) were dicking around on a gravel road in HS. They rolled it. He has a pretty large scar that still shows when he gets a haircut and also got a severely sprained ankle out of the deal. Karma, I guess.

Drove one of these during college. Looked just like this minus the white rag top. 5 speed manual trans and she was pretty peppy plus the gear shift felt great in the palm of my hand. If you saw me rollin' the pioneer stereo and speakers were most likely blaring rob zombie or thumpin' some nappy roots.

I wonder if getting into one of those rental car timeshare plan things is the way to go here.

I always took the Jitney out to the Hamptons during the years I was with the girl who had a house + car out there. Totally spoiled. Last summer I rented a car to go out.

Otherwise, I've had a timeshare in Fire Island where cars aren't even allowed, so you go there by train and travel around on bikes and boat taxis, and this is what I recommend for most folks. (Not sure if Sandy left anything on Fire Island...
