We’ve all heard he term, some people have even referred to your car as a P.O.S. Even after all the hardwork you put into it.

But what exactly makes a car a pos is a mystery. Some people would say age or ‘old’ but then there would have to be some sort of an agreement on what ‘old’ is. A few years an time for a new car? Then why did \_\_\_\_\_\_ just pay $$$$ for \_\_\_\_\_\_ from 196x? Go ahead dare you to tell him it’s a piece.

Couldn’t be the bells and whistles either because passenger mirror was an option in the 60’s and things like gps was the stuff of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_'s science fiction novels.

Can’t be the badge either …

So what could it be?

General concensus is that it’s the overall condition and upkeep and Of course character. 2009 Bmw with rust and a shaky steering wheel will qualify as one, meanwhile a mint 60’s barebones mustang would get you and most people drooling and oubwill hear comments like ‘nice car’.
