'75 Chevrolet Vega - orange. It should have been yellow, what a lemon! I had a stack of repair bills 3 inches thick.

Later found out that the '75 Vegas were manufactured in Lordstown, PA where Chevrolet first started using robotics. Apparently the autoworkers wanted to make the robots look bad so they sabotaged the cars. I read it, so it must be true.

It was finally put out of it's misery by a deer trying to cross the highway.

Good one! My dad was once an insurance adjuster. He was interviewing a lady after a wreck because she had ongoing pain. He asked where the pain was and she said "Right twixt my breastesseses."
