- On the car side -
- At least when a car lets you down it doesn't lie to you as well.
- A car doesn't use the icy weather as a reason not to see you - till July.
- A car doesn't spend two hours telling you how wonderful it's new
- driver is, then apologize for being tactless, and promise not to do it
- again because he isn't that important anyway.

- I have three cars - none of them want me to get rid of the others.
- A car doesn't try telling you that you deserved a better model anyway.
- Cars are safer.

- She's still a friend - I've no idea where my ex-cars are.
- My friends don't keep telling me what I need is another car.
