what iam glad i dont have anymore

my white 1985 plymouth horizon, had more mechanics under it than i did.
my 2 2006 bagless eureka vacuums, which couldn't suck a flea off a dogs back.
a 1970 monkey wards dryer,my mom and dad to replace the front on the dryer(having gone thru 10 panel fronts) before they got a front that the door would stay shut without using duct tape.
having gotten rid of a 1994 cutlass sierra maroon in color from JD fly by nighter the car had warped rotors, the ashtray would fall off all the time, wires hung down under the dash, and when you went to put on the brakes, the lights would flicker, the trunk button never worked, and the abs (anti-lock braking) never worked.
And after being pi**ed off i had to get rid of a 1963 lady kenmore washing machine after someone (no one would tell me who did it)but they packed it full, and to start it turned the timer knob in the wrong direction, and killed it.
and sending my dog lacy back to the angels for animals agency when she chewed up a fairly expensive dining room carpet, and chewed the wood on the door of my closet in the kitchen to which the garbage can was stored behind, and tore up some new floor tiles in my newly redecorated kitchen.

VW

VW deserves a big THUMBS UP for their modern TDI engine. My TDI Beetle rocks! Makes almost as much mileage as a Prius on the highway, and fun to drive. So PPPPPPPPBBBBBTTTT!!!!!
 
hmmm

My 1978 Lady Kenmore set with the electronic push pad buttons..........never has a machine had so many of its own ideas of how my cloths should be washed.

The matching dryer that had the heating element replaced not once not twice but four times in less then a year....may both rust in hell!

My Persian Dimitri who was very possibly the meanest cat ever put on this earth.....adopted from a cat shelter.....I wondered why anyone would ditch a white persian..I found out very quickly

My bernina artista 180 sewing machine...if it didn't blow a board it was out of time and if it wasn't out of time it wouldn't turn on. Now I remember why I kept my old 930!
 
...now that I think about it......

These are the things that I'm glad that I don't have anymore...
1. Husband #1
2. Husband #2
3. Husband #3
4. Husband #4
5. Husband #5
6. Husband #6
7. Husband #7
8. A 1980 something Camaro that kept catching on fire every
time I went over a railroad track. After the third time,
I raised the hood so that it could get PLENTY of air!
9. Virginity. Sex is sooooooo much fun!
10. That awful cowboy outfit that my parents made me wear when
I was little. I wanted to ne a Nun damnit!
11. I'm glad that I don't have the GUILT of having to go to a
Church that continually told me that MY sins were much
bigger than anyone elses.
12. I don't have that little 24 inch waist line that made me
buy my clothes in the BOY'S department! (OK, I lied on
this one!)......kind of. Of course now I have to buy
clothes in the camping department. Which is worse???
13. I don't have my first Westinghouse record player. You
KNOW that Westinghouse was KNOWN for their sound!
14. Glad I don't have a completely bald head anymore. Thanks
Dr. Orentrack and your transplant genius. See you as soon
as I get this Wytheville house built!

....of course there's more....so....to be continued at a later date......Mark Lightedcontrols
 
Well, I still have them both but can't wait until I can replace them:

1997 Amana (Speed Queen) Washer and Dryer. These things were junk from the day they were delivered. The washer is ready for its 4th belt, and it's not as simple to replace as on my 70's Maytag. And when you set it on "warm" the water is tepid at best. It also only has one chintzy little spray rinse that lasts about 15 seconds. The dryer is louder than a rooftop a/c unit, full of squeaks and rattles, gets so hot it smells like somebody is ironing inside the drum, and the repairmen all say the burner is cycling on and off normally. It would give me great pleasure to push both of these junkers off a cliff somewhere. I guess if I had a repairman like "irishwashguy" did, I'd have a reason to hang onto this useless laundry pair, but out of all the service calls since I've had these, not one of the men who has shown up has been worth a second glance. The washer was top rated by Consumer Reports and was a good deal when I was in the market for a new one, so went for it. I've since canceled my subscription to CR, as their research is obviously faulty.

One thing I did unload recently was my mom's '85 Lincoln--the style that tried to imitate the Cadillac Seville with the bustle-back rear end. That car was the biggest dog ever, not that it broke down a lot, it was just a dog to drive and had a "computer" that was impossible to figure out and would produce warning beeps about information you couldn't decipher or clear out. The "check antilock brakes" warning was permanently lit even though there was no problem. And the air suspension leaked so it was just a few inches off the ground after sitting for a few days. You had to wait a few minutes after starting it so it would rise up again, and if you drove it too soon, you'd bounce like a lowrider. What a piece of garbage that car was.

Also glad to be rid of my appx 1985 Whirlpool 25.4 c.f. side-by-side. My partner and I bought it used in 1990 and I'm thinking a power surge related to Loma Prieta fried it, and the replacement compressor was inadequate. That thing almost never shut off and when it was running and you had to turn up the volume on the TV. I was glad when the bottom hinge on the refrigerator door went bad and the whole door nearly fell off. Wasn't worth fixing and I got a nice KitchenAid side-by-side with the ice bin in the freezer door. I know that's still a Whirlpool product but at least it was brand new and not messed with and it's quiet and doesn't run nearly as much as the frig it replaced.

I know there are more, but that's all I can come up with for now!
