    In this thread, I'd like you to write a fictional story of a car.

    Here is my example:

    In 1967, Bob McBarnaby, an union rep at Bath Iron Works in Maine, bought a brand-new Chevrolet Impala 327 ci wagon with the TH400. It was meant to be a good-value family hauler for 6 people - and did the job well, even hauling the family to holiday spots in Florida.

    The Impala was in Bob's hands until 1971. That was when his eldest son, Malcolm, got his license. In his hands, it was a swagger wagon, with seating for however many it fits. In 1973, Malcolm ran a red light and got T-boned by a '60 Biscayne. The bent passenger door was replaced with a Pontiac one with a power window, giving the car a front passenger-only power window setup.

    In 1975, Malcolm sold the Impala, as he found it quite a gas-guzzler. It got bought by Kermit Milhouse, a boat mechanic and the head of a family of 8. The car quickly got decorated with a bunch of conservative bumper stickers. He kept it until 1979, when he had his 8th child and bought a passenger van.

    The wagon was bought by Jeb Philips, Kermit's deadbeat cousin. It was treated roughly, but worked. However, in 1982, Jeb was pulled over by the cops. A bit of insult swinging quickly turned into a chase, and then the Impala landing in a ditch. It got a salvage title and went straight to the junkyard.

    And what story of a car do you have?
