My Honda just celebrated its 21st birthday. It costs me about $400 a year in repairs beyond basic maintenance. I never add oil in between oil changes. It's never left me stranded on the road.
The money that I would otherwise spend on car payments goes to travel. So the car companies don't get it, but the airlines and hotels do. I like to travel.
It seems to me that college kids have all kinds of cars. I would think that most college girls would be more than happy to be picked up for a date in a Lexus. But I personally wouldn't date a guy who swears all the time. JMO.

But we're not talking about college girls, and we're not talking about guys. We're talking about Southern guys. My truck doesn't cost me a thing in repairs.

Not if you're from Plano, no.
My roommate freshman year was from Plano. He drove me fucking crazy. I'm extrapolating that to the rest of the 200,000 people there.

pshsx1, don't worry, there's a couple of decent folk who accidentally moved to Plano. You might be counted among them 
Plano is like 281 if you're from Houston As in (what I hear from the girls, while eye rolling), "He's so 281" haha
