Dear Miss Opal Blue,
It’s been a fun 9 years and 147,000 miles. You lived with me in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Arlington and DC. I’ve gone through a clutch, two sets of tires, and new struts to keep you running in great shape. (I won’t mention the mishap in the parking garage with the broken side mirror, nor the cracked rear bumper I had lovingly re-done to satisfy DC DMV, or that awful hit-and-run driver incident that bumped the body panel.)
Thank you for being a totally awesome car for the last 9 years. I have will miss your reliability. I hope you’ll be good to the grandma getting you. She’s gonna love you too. Have fun in Africa!
Love always,
mapgirl
Note: Boyfriend got her up on Craigslist for a private sale worth $900 more than Volkswagen was offering for trade-in. That means I get to put $2K towards my credit card debt. The buyer is shipping her to Africa for his mother.
Opal Blue was the name of the color in the Nissan brochure.
