Firenze

Oh man, I just remembered what I wanted to post for the past few days that I just could not remember! So quick, before I forget again...

Those who know my car Firenze know it's a complete POS Oldsmobile from 1987. Now, Firenze has been on the fritz for as long as I can remember (I can dig up all my AAA records if ya'll really want to know). So a few weeks ago, I was sure it was on it's deathbed--there was a leak in the coolant system but we never discovered where the leak was coming from or where the coolant was going (presumably, the engine), yadda yadda yadda. Even my Dad and the mechanic confirmed this suspicion that Firenze was on it's last few breaths. We traded cars for a while so he could drive it locally until it died. However, die it did not! The car recently sprang back to life (well, sprang is a bit of a stretch) and is now running fine. Apparently the leak repaired itself. Can you believe this?! What car does that? Unbelievable. I'm thinking about taking bets on how long it will last...completely unpredictable.
