1. 

got the first CRX at 15, i think. i didn’t have a license yet, but i had a co-signed car payment…lol. the funny thing is, i wanted a firebird, but my dad made me get a CRX… having that car totally changed my perception of econoboxes.

second cars don’t increase insurance much… think about it… you can only wreck one at a time.

progressive only charged me $7 more for the second car the last time i had two.

i’ve lost my license six times, and i’m serving probation for driving under suspension, and my insurance was $96 a month on the Prizm before I went on my mom’s with the Metro.
