This is the story of the second car I owned–a car that ended up on its 3rd engine, 3rd transmission, and countless other replaced parts. This 2nd generation Mazda MX6 taught me a whole lot about working on cars.

The story about the very first car I owned, a 1994 Mazda Protege LX. It was not a pretty car, but it sure didn’t matter. I finally got to have my very own car finally!
