EDITOR’S CORNER


How many cars are too many? In my driveway there are three – A 2005 Jeep, 2009 Hyundai Sonata, and a 2017 Nissan Rogue. On my side yard sit two MGs – one runs, the other doesn’t have an engine and is basically only a car frame (It was to be a project car that turned to be more of a project I am skilled for). In the garage sits my recent purchases – a 1970 MGB and the 2013 Tesla Series S. Space is an issue and vehicle stickers, plates and insurance are draining away monies I would have liked to use to purchase repair parts. Each car has a special place in my heart and I really don’t want to part with any of them. Wasn’t it just 15 short years ago I joined the CMGC to find me an MGB to be my only driving car? Who would of thought my car corral would get this big?

See you on the road…
