92' Ford Escort 5 speed.
Watch out for my ragin 88 horse power Escort. It might not smoke, anything other than oil. But she gets 38mpg pretty easily.

Haha nice I had an '82 escort when I was 16...lasted me a good year though until I blew the head gasket and the 2nd gear out of the trans.
That 60 hp motor left me wondering whether or not I'd make it up steep hills sometimes...ah the memories... |

I have an 1991 Honda Accord 5-speed with 165k, with a mis-aligned door and paint beat to crap. But it doesn't really make sense for me to ahve a winter beater when I have the AWD W8 with snow tires on it.....

Well shes' mostly my beater while the good ol W8 is in the shop.
And again 38mpg and 15 dollar oil changes, kinda easier on the wallet when my mileage got bumped down to 40 cents instead of 44 |
