    My silver 1986 Toyota Corolla manual transmission sedan, which I inherited from my mom in 1998 or so, was my favorite car I ever owned. I miss it. I drove it for years until the tire rod snapped and I smashed into a parked car.

      A tire rod snapping is no joke. An 18 wheeler flipped over outside of my workplace on Monday because of that. Nobody was seriously hurt, fortunately. It took hours to get it cleared up.
