If so what were the circumstances....had you been in a wreck and you couldn't afford to fix it, did it make loud noises, keep cutting off every time you stopped, did it smoke excessively,mirrors hanging off, etc.? Have you been embarrassed riding in someone else's car? If so why?

    My car died in front of a bus stop full of females once a few winters ago. I stopped at a stop sign, and when I tried to pull off but my whole ride just shut down lol. Steering wheel locked up and the wheels went off and everything just went off lol. It started right back up, but still. One of the females tried to clown my ? until I reminded her she was at the bus stop and she was still waiting while I was driving off.....

    LMAO at some of ya'lls story.

    Like wayyyyy back in the day, I had a friend who had took her mom's car, not a ugly ass car but it was rideable okay.. like a 95 buick, and one night we had gon out clubbin and you know how after its closing time, people are all outside and everybody car hopping to go party else where and everybody ? and feeling tipsy.. Well me and her got back into her car to leave home right. Anyways some kats hit us up and keep waving us down to stop and talk, well her ? stops, and she forgot non of her windows roll down lmao..

    ? was heee-larry-yuuus..

    I'm on the passenger side and them dudes is coming to the passenger window, and I"m trying to roll down the window, and she was like "that window don't go down" she was like "my window goes down but only 2 inches down" lol...

    Soooo embarasssing... because they was like "Roll down your window" and I'm over here lmao telling them "wait, we gonna pull over"

    We pull over and stop the car, and they invite us to a party.. Guess what??? the car isn't starting... I"m like O' hell na! lol. It was embarassing.. The car never started, and they ended up towing the car back to her place. This wasn't even her car, it was her mom's.. She had taken off with it too..

    Well they tow it to her drive way, a few minutes later the porch light turns on and her mom is like "Shayyy, get yo ass back inside RIGHT NOW" lmao..

    This is like wayyy back in the 90's...

    my first car smh it was an 85 Cutlass Supreme

    but I had some fun in that car

    the only thing that held up the back seat was the board that went across it lol

    I didn't have a windshield wiper on the car. I had a stick and rag around it, with rubber bands

    lol some of these stories have me laughing. but yea it sucks to have a messed up car. It doesnt matter as long as you are in a neighborhood w/ppl just as broke as you but going anywhere else is embarrassing :) im ok now tho

    and i've never been embarrassed by what somebody else was driving because it wasn't mine, well besides my parents :( because thats a reflection of how poor i was too lol but yeah i used to be really embarrassed having my parents take me anywhere in some of the cars they had.

    ...

    Can relate... in highschool this happened w/my 89 Jetta... that car was 13 years old when i got it & I knew it was gonna give me some trouble.. but i got stuck with it coming off the exit for my school & I had to learn pop-starting on my own that day. lol luckily it was a stick. (turns out my battery wasn't charging propperly) I must have stalled it coming down the off-ramp.

    Not by my ride, but my Grandma had this beat up old rusty dodge back in the day. I used to act like I was tying my shoes when she used to pick me up from school.
