Apropos of nothing - I wonder how many significant others are lurkers on lists frequented by their other halves.

Same here (with exception of the tag...)
1995 Pontiac Grand Prix (also an orphan car). Mostly paid for with Linux based IT work, but initially traded my mother-in-law's golf cart for it.
Best deal ever. (Now if I could just get someone to take my mother-in-law in trade directly....) -jt

I can talk about my car here all I want 'cause my tag is LINUX1 and it's paid for with Linux admin work.

2005 Saturn Vue (orphan car) with 4 cylinder, 5 speed manual, leather seats and a propensity for the metal tubing in the AC system to crack and fail.
Probably rwcycled Budweiser cans.
