its not like i sold the cougar to get the 4runner
its just what i happened to buy
i dont know why i sold it - a little pressure from the boyfriend at the time and me thinking it all summer
not even with the guy anymore - but who knows
he's in the hottest car club for my area of NY and is known well in various other touching states
he sold his subura wrx sti - and then i got ride of mine.....
things were starting to go - i never had a problem with the coug previously though
was at 92,000 miles - so afraid to hit 100,000
i needed new brakes - no biggie - had rear drum brakes - wanted to convert over to 4 disc
atx - wanted an mtx
the shifter cable needed to be replaced - when i was in park 1/2 the time couldnt take the key out of the ignition
no cruise - no biggie
i needed to reupholster the back door panels again - way too hot this summer and passenger side started to come up, and i couldnt get it to stay down
tired of having a broken sunroof
b/c i bought the car used - it had a lot of dings and dents on the outside - if i would have kept the cougar this winter she would have gotten a new hood, a lot of molding and shaving, and a new paint job - putting me about another $5000 in debt
had to worry about a place to store her over the winter months
im sure there are some other reasons why i sold it, but who knows
if anythng i wanted to keep my deck and my fiberglass install - but was talked into selling the deck

and the more i thought about it the fiberglass box was custom made to fit in the trunk of a cougar, with the deep whole where the spare tire went - so its not like i could have just tranferred it over to my new vehicle - and the kid that bought my car offered me an extra $3000 to keep it in the car
i sold my cougar for $13,000
yes i wish i kept it - i mean **** in the past 2 years every show i went to i won a trophy, if not more than 1 at each show. im ending the cougar season attending 16 shows and walking with 19 trophies.
it got to the point where i was tired of going to a show at 9am - waiting around all day until 6pm just to get my trophy, that i knew i was going to get at 9am.
next year is a new year - who knows what ill have??? another coug - maybe
