This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

In Ontario. It was my first car, so 10 years ago, so not quite the same market as today. It was a '96 Tercel. No AC option, no airbags, no ABS, no cruise control, crank windows, manual locks, manual transmission. Needed brake lines and a windshield.

So it was already like 19 years old when you got it, makes sense that it was pretty low cost.

Yep. Don't need all the bells and whistles. On top of that it was incredibly reliable and fuel efficient since there wasn't much to it.
