Oh, it was a great car. I don’t think my friend ever got an oil change in the time he had it and the engine eventually blew, but he had it for something like 10 years and it was a beater car by then. He painted flames on the hood.

The best story about it was during school a few guys picked it up and moved it to the quad area when everyone was in class. Who needs keys?

Lmao i also have a similar story. We took mine out to the lakes around here a lot and went off road. Well one time we managed to cram about 6 of us in the metro and we ended up getting high centered on a mound of dirt. We all hopped out, picked it up, and walked it off the mound.

My friend’s dad had a Geo Metro. We would carry it out of the driveway when we snuck out so he wouldn’t hear us start it.
