Default Last one standing

So I own 3 vehicles; a 1993 Mazda Navajo 227K (rebadged Ford Explorer Sport),
a 2000 BMW 323i 122K and of source a 1980 Mazda Rx7 GS 108K. As of today
only one car is running.

The Rx7!

The Navajo suffered a burst brake line the week before last and last week it
started spewing gas out the top of the fuel tank. I have yet to get it in the
garage because...

Friday the BMW decides to drop all its coolant via a burst expansion tank while my
wife is driving it around downtown Charlotte. So I have parts ordered but they don't
come in until Wednesday (cross your fingers).

The Rx7 just keeps purring, well growling, along thru 100 degree heat and daily
use. You just can't beat the simplicity and reliablity of a 1st gen
