Default 2nd Car

I traded an Acura CL for my S2K and have NO regrets. However, the Acura was my only car and I quickly realized that if I'm going to carry more than one passenger or any reasonable amount of cargo, I would need a 2nd car.

Having recently move to the West Central coast of Florida (Florida is perfect for top down fun in your S2K), there are always cars for sale here in God's waiting room.

I bought a 1989 (don't laugh) Mercury Grand Marquis with 90,000 miles in excellent cosmetic shape.

Now it's a real toss-up on deciding which one I'll drive and a sunny warm day.

Having lived down there for 15 years I'm LMAO at the "God's waiting room" comment because it's so true. But I dont' think I could go back and forth between my S and a Grand Marq. no matter what the weather was

This is when it's good to be married BTW, easier to justify a 2nd nice car for people and "stuff" purposes, currently a 2k 4-Runner, soon to be a BMW 325. And I still have my '66 VW T3 that can haul 4 people happily down the road when it's asked to

That's why I am keeping my '92 Accord with 250,000 miles. That, and the damn thing still runs like the day I bought it 12 years ago. Best money I ever spent.
