Have you ever had a car that was special to you for some reason?

When my daughter was almost two and my son was just a few months old, my wife and I bought a 1997 Honda Odyssey with 50k miles on it. We have had this van for 7 years, and yesterday we traded it in on a newer model. My kids and I are heartbroken -- we loved our old van; the kids even named it "Vanny". They grew up with this van -- When we left the dealership, my son gave our old van a hug and my daughter cried the whole way home...I felt so bad for her.

1. Yes, but then, I'm one of those people anthropomorphizes pretty much everything.

I feel sorry for my toothbrush when I throw it away.

2. I'm kind of like that, too.

My wife says that I am the biggest sap in the world.

3. I feel bad when we get rid of our cars. "We brought home Kid 2 in this car!" "We took that one

vacation in this car!" And I always take a picture of it. I have quite a few pictures of cars. What I'm going to do with them, hell if I know.

as a child...In the back back jumpseat...Sort of like this...except it was yellow...
