Here's the tune to the Buick commercial- I want a black one
DREAM ON
Everytime that I look in the mirror All these lines on my face gettin’ clearer The past is gone It went by like dust to dawn Isn’t that the way Everybody’s got their dues in life to pay
I know what nobody knows Where it comes and where it goes I know it’s everybody’s sin You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life is in books’ written pages Live and learn from fools and from sages You know it’s true All the things come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the years Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears Sing with me, if it’s just for today Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away (x2)
Dream on, dream on Dream yourself a dream come true Dream on, dream on Dream until your dream come true Dream on, dream on, dream on...
Sing with me, sing for the years Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears Sing with me, if it’s just for today Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away

I had 1958 DeSoto, power everything, push-button transmission. Went from that to a 1964 Falcon, factory 4-speed on the floor. I bought it in 1968, four years old, for $250
I bought a 64 Falcon for a case of beer. It got stolen or impounded before I ever got to drive it. It wasn't worth trying to find out what happened to it.
My first car was a white cordoba (spelling?) don't remember what year it was. I remember leaving work one day and all of a sudden the car slams to the ground, damn lugnuts broke on one of the tires, my ex actually blamed me for it!
Actually I lied. My 1st was a christler 300. It lasted me 3 weeks 'till I blew the engine on the freeway. I just couldn't go slow! The funniest story is how I lost the bumper at some farmers driveway with the license plate on it after going through the ditch.(booze had a lot to do with it)Â The cops called me the next day (they traced the plate #) and gave me the farmers phone number. when he asked what happened, I told him it "just fell off". Took me 3 days to straighten it enough to put back on so I could drive it.
I got busted running over a stop sign the same way. All that was left was my license plate.  Stupid teenagers. I would never let them drive. I shouldn't have been. It cost me dearly.
A few years ago a friend had built a new C Store in Bloomington. He had a new car wash that he was pretty proud of and kept asking me to come out to try it out. I drove out there one day and went through the wash. It was really new and the chamois scrubbers were new and I was rocking and rolling through the car wash. Got home and got out of my car and saw that the back bumper was missing! I called him and asked if anyone had found a bumper in his car wash. He said they had and was pretty embarrassed.
The ONLY time I forgot (really never knew how at the time) to put oil in a car. I was on the highway headed south on 35E near the exit for the MN zoo (back in about 1988ish) --- The car started smokin and blew the hose. I left it by the side of the highway and never went back for it. All I remember is it was an orange car with black stripes.
yes, he took it. Its a cave down under the Highbridge. Unfortunately its filled in with chunks of the old highbridge and currently sealed with boulders til the city can figure out how to cover their asses.

DREAM ON
Everytime that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face gettin’ clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dust to dawn
Isn’t that the way
Everybody’s got their dues in life to pay
I know what nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it’s everybody’s sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life is in books’ written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it’s true
All the things come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it’s just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away
(x2)
Dream on, dream on
Dream yourself a dream come true
Dream on, dream on
Dream until your dream come true
Dream on, dream on, dream on...
Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it’s just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away

Cool. I used to have a 66 Ford Falcon. Horn went off whenever I had it in reverse. :)

funny stories in here.
My 1st car was a 71 camaro.
Actually I lied. My 1st was a christler 300. It lasted me 3 weeks 'till I blew the engine on the freeway. I just couldn't go slow! The funniest story is how I lost the bumper at some farmers driveway with the license plate on it after going through the ditch.(booze had a lot to do with it)Â The cops called me the next day (they traced the plate #) and gave me the farmers phone number. when he asked what happened, I told him it "just fell off". Took me 3 days to straighten it enough to put back on so I could drive it.
Then I got the camaro.

My first car was a white cordoba
