Fairwell old Freind


Well guy's yesterday our family lost a old freind, my 1988 Mercedes 190E. After much delebiration about if I should keep the car in the yard not running I decided to sell it to a scrap yard to be turned into a little red cube. I have had this car since High School. This car was the vehicle I used to " chase " down Michelle the day we meet. Thats another story in itself. This o'll car carried me through Graduation, Marraige, live changes, love and loss. Eventualy I parked it four years ago after blowing the heater core and have had several vehicles since then. This summer I got the Mercedes back on the road and drivable but it keept stalling and leaving me in the middle of the road. It's either spend a lot of money to make me feel younger again or be responsibe. I chose the responsible side. It would cost way to much to fix what was wrong with it. So I drove it for the last time, onto the back of a wrecker. Im not sad, well mabey a little, but I do love my Yukon that I have now. Michelle, the Mercedes, and I have been through a lot together. Even to the top of Pikes Peak 14,000 feet. But now is time to move on. I did keep the front grill and other Mercedes emblems from her. They are displayed proudley in my garage as a reminder of the good times me, my wife, and freinds have had in the Mercedes.
