saw my ex on the road

Post by lowincash »

i used to drive a 2000 honda accord v6 coupe and wrecked it back in july of 2005. sold it to a junk yard place and never saw it since...until yesterday. i saw my old car on the fwy on my way to work. it was the weirdest feeling i've had yet it felt cool to see it again. i wish i had a camera at hand to take pics but i was driving =/ after more than 3 years later i see the car back on the road all fixed and looked almost the same as when i had it before.here's a few pics of the accord i had...and the day some a$$hole cut in front of me at an intersection

not to be skeptical but; how do you know it was your car? out of the 100,000 or so they built I'm sure a few were red ones. did you stop and check the vin # or something?

It's a good thing if your ex is in the crosswalk, and you have a really big bumper.

Interesting. in Indiana and Wisconsin your license plate goes to your new car.

Occasionally I'll see my old Vibe GT driving around town or the Tundra (vehicle before the Vibe). The Tundra I see a lot because the guy works off the road we live on. However, the VGT just appears out of nowhere sometimes. Still has the tribal decals on the sides... so easy to spot.

that would explain seeing your old car then if the plate went with the car.

That's weird that you don't keep your plate.

I thought it was a little odd the first time I heard it...

Awww, sorry to hear that. I'm still on pretty good terms with most of my ex's, but none of them ended particularly badly with anyone doing anything horrible to the other person.
