People use to give me cars. For the same reason.

Free food is a good deal anytime. That's why I force myself to go to so many lame work lunches. 5

Last time, she tried to give me so much stuff—bread, pastries, cake! I talked her down to a couple of packages of tortillas for James.

But, you ever try to eat a car?

The difference between a free car and free food is quality. You are more than likely to get good quality food if it is free. Anyone giving a car away isn't doing it because it's a great car..

The Honda CRX, the Easybile, the Plymouth station wagon, the Hornet. Vs. a Christmas fruitcake, perhaps.

Did you dad make you ride in the back of a Hornet as a kid? That is child abuse... 5

I even got to drive the Hornet once. It didn't have power steering, so the gear ratio on the steering wheel was very shallow—it took a tremedous number of turns to get around a corner. This was good preparation for my 1966 Chevy, which was similar (but a better car). Not that the Chevy was that good, either.

On the subject of free cars, I will say that there have been some free cars that were better than food I paid for.

Another difference between free food and a free car is that you can sell the free car much more easily when you are finished with it.

So... Easybile?? Sounds like an ipecac brand :(

That is exactly right.
