Back in 1995, I was stationed at Adak, Ak. with a car that made everyone laugh every time we see it on the road. It was an old Honda Civic (I don’t recall what year or model) but I’m guessing an early 80’s model. Rounder angled and stodgy looking civic!! Anyhow the reason it was so comedic was that it was such a rust bucket with a missing hood, thereby exposing the engine in plain view. The car would be seen once or twice a week by us being driven around the base. What was so amusing was with no hood , when it snowed which was a very frequent thing in Adak island, the engine and the engine bay would be covered with snow and ice with icicles everywhere. But this ordinary-looking ugly brown civic was an un-killable machine due to it being continuously being driven through the cold and snow in one the most hostile environment that I can think of.

My mom grew up in the country, second gen. American , her dad, my grandfather, after serving in WWII started his civilian life as a pyrotech. He carved roads in mountainsides, and saved his money and started a logging co. He picked me up a couple times and took me along for the ride. He drove that diesel pusher up and down windy skinny dirt switchbacks that would would make your hair stand on end. He told me that anyone can drive a fast car, but not everyone can drive a car fast. It wasn't until my mom taught me how to drive that I understood what he meant. We've all heard the saying, "women drivers no survivors" and as a rule that's not too far off the mark, but for every rule there is an exception. And my mom is one of those exceptions, and subsequently so is my sister, I was riding with her a week or so ago, and I made note of her skill and said to thank mom for showing us both the secrets of the wheel. I drive a POS econo box gerbil on a wheel powered car. Last time I got pulled over the officer asked me, "do you know how fast you were going?" I looked him right in the eye, and asked him, "Did I get to 100, I was trying to wind this thing upto a 100 but I can't take my eyes off the road anywhere near 80 cause it shakes a bit" He started laughing his ass off, cause he knew as well as I did, the only way that car would do 100mph is if I drove it off a cliff. Still prior to pulling me over I was leaving traffic behind me at a furious pace. I should also mention that making the cop laugh and being honest at the same time, remember I said around 80 she get shaky, I was doing 79 mph. He let me go with, "have a nice day" not even a warning. Cops are human too, try treating them that way, whatcha got to lose?

Now they have plastic water pumps, plastic radiators, plastic inside the engine that fits in between the head gasket, plastic crap every where. Theres a reason why Mechanics tend to drive older cars. Scotty Kilmer owns all older generation Toyotas. Oldest one is a 94 Celica. More simpler cars back then that were better made with less plastic crap and gizmos.
