5. Yes. It's gray all over, just like me.
P.S. It's paid for.

8. Mine does.
Edited on Sat Jul-17-10 04:02 PM by Rhiannon12866
It says "Obama/Biden - 2008," "New Yorkers for Kerry/Edwards," "Support the Troops - Bring them Home" and "If You Want a Dog - Rescue One." :)

On edit: I almost forgot! LOL. :D And:

9. Yes, my old rear end

This was taken about 4 years ago.... The impeach sticker came off after the election.
Then...they all came off when I let my son use my car for his new job in February...:-(
Now my car is boring....
Boring is my new message...

10. Yikes! Love every one of them!
My DU sticker is in the very same place, though I've had to replace it since I got my car in 2004... :D

11. The pic makes total sense.
I drive a Porsche (2nd car, of course,) so I get from point 'A' to point 'B' really fast. So I'm never this full like a VW-driver who takes ages and ages to get from point 'A' to point 'B.' I just have to comfortable dribble a 'lil bit. And they're like ... whoaaa! Step back, buddy!

My other car is a Hummer.

12. Without question.
The Pimpmobile ('93 Lincoln Town Car), with the obligatory fuzzy pink dice, says "Crimson Doesn't Have a Job."

14. Shhhhhhhh!
Nobody IRL knows me as crim son & I'd like to keep it that way so when I post drunk it doesn't come back to bite me.

15. Unfortunately in L.A. it makes a difference. My Nissan,
which I absolutely adored, was totaled two weeks ago.:cry: I rented a little Chevrolet which I actually like. The insurance companies are fighting it out regarding who was at fault. In the meantime, I'm in limbo. I have no idea how much I'll be able to spend on my next one so I may end up in an American car which will bum me out since they don't age well and normally aren't made well which would mean auto repairs down the road (no pun intended). This post prompts me to start a post regarding which American cars have a good reputation. I joined Consumer Reports on-line and they say FORDS are the best but I've had FORDS in my earlier years and they were crap.
