My two daily drivers, I alternate every other day. The aspire is 94 with 90k, had to replace motor it has 107k on it. The festiva is a 91 with 130k.
IMO, d.i.f. simply doesn't like your rides. Nothing more, nothing less. While your two rides do lack the sex appeal of countless newer, shinier, more expensive rides, there is nothing functionally wrong with your rides. Looks like you take good care of them, too.quote:

drive it forever... when you get up the balls to say something, say it and shut up. I have no clue what some people have against these cars. Maybe jealously, I seriously don't know. I've never bashed anyones cars, no matter what it is. Quite frankly both are paid for, get 40+mpg, very reliable, very nimble, and once you learn to drive them they aren't the slowest on the road.I get offers on both on a daily basis. Will someone enlighten me on this?
Maybe if more people drove cars like these instead of Excursions, Tahoes, Hummers etc....we wouldn't be paying 3.50 for gasoline. I know of several Festivas that went over 200K on their Korean built, Mazda designed engines. I would love to find a low mileage, manual trans, Festiva (or Aspire) to commute with.quote:
