It's a Lemon.

My sister and I have the most distinguished privilege of driving a 2000 Blue Ford Windstar. Before you get all up on your high horse about how my sister and I should be happy that our parents allow us to have the use of a vehicle or that we should be content with what we have. I will first tell you that, yes I am aware of what I should be feeling, but if you saw this piece of crap you would understand what I mean.
On the driver side of the van, there is a rather large dent, of which its origin I have no understanding of. As well, the front bumper (the bottom of it) has a large 90 degree dent right smack in the middle of it that resembles as if it were smashed in by the driving force of say... a pole? Coincidently, the car runs about as smooth as a Top Gun at Wonderland. The other day when I was driving the blue van with a friend of mine, we were stopped at a light. When the van is not in motion, it has a tendency to chug, similar to that of the tractor one rides while pumpkin picking. my friend turns to me and says "Aimee, I don't think your car is supposed to do this" and I turned to her saying "Please, she purrs like a cat. Let her grunt a little".
Blue Van also has a little sputter problem. Hills, I think, are her worst nightmare. The fact that I have to drive up one almost everyday from work scares the bejeezes out of her. She sounds like the HHMMVW Hummer that the amry drives. The other day as my sister and I were putting a bike in the back, we saw that the trunk light fell out. But we were mostly convinced that we had not hit the light with the bike. My sister turned to me and said "Aimee, I think it may have been from when I closed the door". My first thought was oh great, so now every time I slam the trunk door shut the light is going to fall out...f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s. The cd player also does not work correctly. It randomly spits the cd out of the player, or decides to kidnap it, followed by randomly spitting it back out.
Even though all of this adds up to a big fat stinker of a vehicle, the blue van pulls on a special string of my heart. Right from the second week she was called back to the shop on a recall. When she goes, I will be sad. There are some extremely memorable times spent in her.
