The following is a straight copy from my post earlier today on fordfestiva.com.
Get more songs and vids made. And FINALLY finish the the festiva song and vid. I told myself I would record one song a week, and have one session a week of archiving from audio cassette, video cassette, mini disc, and digital video tape. I have thousands of tracks to archive. I have a list of about 30 originals and 30 covers to get recorded. It grows by the week. The songs sort of write themselves. Usually while I am driving. I record ideas on my voicemail from my cell phone. Then when I'm at home I get a first "sketch" recorded. Man I'm getting old and times goes faster and faster.
I'll give a short synopsis of why I am obsessed with the best car .......ever. Go ahead jab me about that. I am used to it. I've had 15
1. average lifespan of 300,000 miles
2. I know of 3 with over 500,000 miles (one of which is close to 600,000)
3. can be bought with 200,000 miles for about $600 in great shape - that's an average of 100,000 miles left for $600
4. 40 - 50+ mpg
5. 113 mph top speed (radar certified)
6. unibody cube so it's structurally sound (seen several rolled and driven home)
7. huge inside though tiny outside
8. start with a 1600 lb car and add a little cheap horsepower and embarass mustangs and wrx's
proof of some of the previous claims .....
