Default The TA is mad at me

So I bought a new car and it's sad but I gotta sell the trans am, well the same week I bought the new car my exhaust on the TA falls off (muflfler rusted through) and my drivers side window switches quit working! I think she's conspiring to bring down her value so I won't sell

My car is the same way. She sees me working on another car and starts to act out.

What did you get?

I picked up an '03 Volvo S60, turbo all wheel drive with some suspension and engine mods, but one of my co-workers wants to buy my ta so i'll probably still get to see her everyday

Mine has an attitude to. I got a nice storage shed while I'm not driving her, and she seem pretty happy. If it has **** or tires, it's going to give you hell.
