What, has it been cheating on you?  The thrill is gone?  He hasn't taken you out on a Friday night for 5 months? Yeah, dump the loser!

@zil You've got some funny ones today, but I'm fearful the energy drain on the grid could lead to black outs.

Have no fear.  Recent research by the DOE shows that snarky posts pump power back into the grid.

Almost.  The deal is we could eventually power a hydroelectric power plant from all the tears of the trolled.

We presently have a 2009 Mazda Model 5 that is completely paid off.  We also have a 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage we bought brand new for about $12,500.  It has about 37,000 miles on it presently.  We only have half of the debt to pay off on it still.

A website I liked was this as they expose the really bad lemon cars and give you a better chance of getting a decent model:  https://www.carcomplaints.com/

Of course you could look at a car that is supposedly a decent model but someone has drove it like a race car and treated it like dung so you will inherit their wear and tear.  I would study it out in your mind come to a conclusion on what to do with your car and ask the LORD if this is the correct decision.  Cars are always a huge gamble in my opinion.

A long time ago, I saw a documentary on a fusion-powered car.

Good luck finding replacement parts of it breaks down, might be centuries before you get home.

I had no idea that one could buy a new car for $12.5K as recently as 2015. You are to be congratulated.

Has a spotter lit it up for that fighter jet that's about to launch a missile in your direction?  Forget the car - run!

Bad advice. For you, @Sunday21, I recommend accepting delivery of the missile. They're worth far more (unexploded) than a ford Focus, and you could probably find plenty of willing buyers in the Middle-east. And if it does explode while your in the car, you won't be needing a new car any more. Problem solved.

Thank you for solving all of my problems! ...and all of my neighbors problems!

Maybe you should just leave it parked outside @zil's place - just in case someone does decide to fire a missile at it.
