FYI: I once drove from Ocean City, MD, to Dayton, OH, in an Opel GT...

With my buddy, his girlfriend (who owned the car), my 1st Berthe' (1/2 German Shepherd & 1/2 English Sheepdog) & with all our luggage loaded in the dog carrier in which she (Berthe', not the girlfriend) flew to Baltimore!

Three people and a dog in an Opel GT! Never got stopped once! Got more than a couple 2nd looks in the rest stops and gas stations en route, though!

Cheers!

lol i feel left out i have only owned 2 cars and im looking down the list some people have like 20 or 30 listed

I have over 30 today! I didn't feel like typing that long. The 61 Ford ragtop is the one that changed my life way back in 1972. The guys didn't want to hang out with me. I buy a 61 Ford ragtop, in blue paint, the girls did want to hang out!

The BEST $100. I ever spent! (11 year old convertables were only 'valuable' to redneck poor boys back then)
IF the redneck 'poor boy' spent some time with a can of wax, the girls NOTICED!!
Phil rode in it, Spike rode in it, because they were my friends. Dorothy, Lora, Teresa, Linda, etc,etc,etc rode in it because it was BLUE and the top went down! (clearing throat here over and over again.......)
