Then there was the National Champion, the guy that stood on the roof of his Mopar with the sign that said &quot;Conway Sold me A Lemon&quot; right down the street from the shop in Baldwin. He was there for years, and also was instrumental in developing the Lemon Law in NYS.

Slightly ironic ending..... Dealer handled this perfectly and had us a brand new replacement within a week. 8 (yes eight) days later, my wife takes out the back passenger quarter. The guy she hit was furious! - Yes it was me. In my driveway. And yes, it WAS the second time! Can you guess who's fault it was?!?!?!
She took out the front drivers fender, 2 doors, and rear quarter of my beloved '04 Highlander daily driver!

Sounds like what has happened to me over the last month. I was going to take my Nova to a local swap meet but I did not want to drive it so I rented a trailer from U-haul. Not sure what happened but the trailer came loose from the ball while I was loading the car and it tried to shove the nose of the trailer thru the back hatch of my wife's Sequia doing about $3200 in damage. Last week end one of the rafters in my garge broke that is about 12 feet in the air that I have a sheet of plywood laying across with 2&quot;x4&quot;s stored on top of that for future projects. All that came crashing down on a 1969 Camaro SS that I bought last year. I would have thought the car would have been safe in the garage. I am afraid to take the car out in the sunlight to see all the damage and get an estimate.

Yeah that is the one I just bought last year. The car sat pretty much untouched since 1993 and I own it for just a few months and all heck breaks loose. I guess that is what I get for taking over my Wife's side of the garage and I just picked the car up from my freinds shop less than 2 months ago up in Fresno after he finished the interior. It could of been worse if everything fell on the Nova instead.
