    Joy ride and running drugs are common reasons to steal any old car. Whoever has been stealing it clearly isn’t doing so to keep it since the same car keeps getting stolen again.

      Whoever has been stealing it clearly isn’t doing so to keep it since the same car keeps getting stolen again.

      It seems like it has to do more with her neighborhood than the model itself.

      Old and boring story to share

      I bought my ex a brand new 2008 Kia Spectra. It had a decent 2.2 liter DOHC and was very good in the snow.

      However, it had an annoying alarm that would go off seemingly if a fly landed on it but if someone bumped into it, it would work when it felt like it.

      The last straw: We had just settled down on a crowded beach and it went off. By the time I got to the car

      It was surrounded by people arguing whether to smash a window or force open the hood all in a matter of 1-2 minutes

      The beach entranceway was a long ass stair case btw. These people disbursed as I apologized to them all individually.

      This beach is in a State camp ground so all these people are there to get away from noise and traffic.

      That was the day we pulled the fuse.
