looks like i wont have mine for while, i usually just sit at home and watch movies, or call ym friends and bride them to come pick me up.

rents wont let me drive their cars, i have a history of speeding.

get rides from my parents, or take their car, or get a ride from my fiance... i've been without my car for over 3 weeks, hasn't been a problem yet smile.gif
finding a ride, or taking public transportation is how i get around.
i leave the celi at home when i go to school.. then i take it for the evening.

haha when my car was in the shop a few years ago when it had the bad accident I drove my mom's durango to work, but i called the shop everyday, and went there on my way home from work almost everyday just to say hi. smile.gif She was gone for about 3 1/2 weeks, and then my mom picked her up and drove her to the resturant where i worked and when i got out of work my car was there and i cried. haha yeah... i have issues.

when i don't have my celi, i'll either borrow my friend's civic coupe, or car service. already coughin out loads of cash for repairs, can't miss work too. that'll just double the cost frown.gif and mac~!! post those videos from the teaneck meet~!!

walk

..(formerly daily driven) 3S-GTE powered celica currently set @ 12psi..
I either drive my moms '94 Mercury Villager (does a mean one-wheel burnout....) or my dads 2001 Toyota Tacoma. I perfer the latter, of course.

Although my friend lets me borrow his 2002 WRX lately, he let me borrow it for a while the other day when I was putting on my exhaust and had to run out for some parts. Definately the best temp car I could ask for. smile.gif

I done the same thing too smile.gif
Although I didnt damage it.
I brought it like that.
It was nothing major.
The last owner couldnt reverse out of
his driveway probably and swipe the side,
by the looks of it.
But I would go to the workshop and checked up
on it everyday. My friends thinks it's weird.
But I love my baby biggrin.gif

Now to answer macavely's question.
I've a daily (Corona), so I guess I'll drive that.

My daily driver is an '87 F-150, "Honey Bucket". It says so right on the side. One of my coworkers peeled the sticker off the crapper and put it on for me. People think I'm sponsored.

During the summer and off work I'm usually on a bike even if I can drive the car. My fav for around town is a Yamaha Seca II.
