    Wife also had Company car .. so for about 15 years we did own a car

    Actually not....as you probably also noticed, I had a few Dodges and a Plymouth in there also. We just had a great relationship with our dealer who always took care of us and got us the best deals because we were such regulars.

    Unfortunately, during the shake out in 2008, they lost their Dodge/Chrysler franchise (Thanks, Obama)

    1998 Honda Civic EX coupe
    1993 Ford Escort Hatch
    1991 Ford Tempo
    1996 Nissan Maxima
    1998 Ford F150 Crew Cab

    Mostly beaters, but that '98 Civic was immaculate. I should have never sold it. Now I'm carless...and I love it.

    Just wondering since all of my wife and I's cars are Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep, and with her recently retired dad being the head of quality assurance for Jeep, that family discount is pretty healthy ;)
