If My Body Were A Car

If my body were a car, this is the time I would be thinking about trading it in for a newer model. I've got bumps and dents and scratches in my finish and my paint job is getting a little dull ... But that's not the worst of it.
My headlights are out of focus and it's especially hard to see things up close.
My traction is not as graceful as it once was. I slip and slide and skid and bump into things even in the best of weather.
My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins.
It takes me hours to reach my maximum speed. My fuel rate burns inefficiently.
But here's the worst of it --
Almost every time I sneeze, cough or sputter. ....either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires!!

I just keep repairing the old parts...
Gotta laugh because mr conched just put about 1000 miles on a 1930 Model A in 6 days. He called on his way home and says he's gonna have to replace and repair a lot!

I find burning higher octane fuel helps the motor run smoother....they make Octane boost that works well. It goes by various names such as beer, rhum, and tequila. Try it, and you might find that things improve.
Good Luck and let us know how it works for ya

If my body were a car, it'd be a dump truck.
