It's a zombie pirate.

But I was thinking of changing to an avatar of Skull Cowboy from the movie "The Crow".
I have a car but the gas is too expensive out here and my car just sucks it up.

.. I'm sure I should take that personally, but for some reason I assume you must be referring to everyone else 
Guess you missed the self-deluding :tongue:

Get a Honda Civic. I'm saving money to get one from 2004. They get around 30 mpg so I mean at least you'd be spending less time at the pump
Hondas are a thieves most favourite car to steal where i live , they are getting stolen left and right out here.

The one I'm getting has the chip inside so it's pretty much theft proof

I don't believe any car is theft proof, if they really wan't it they'll get it some how .

Thats why I said pretty much
I firmly believe that nothing is fail safe, but hey at least it has the chip as a deterrent!

If they want the car for parts, yes. There are rings that steal cars and sell parts on the black market.
On my Spitfire, they would have had to tow it. I used to take the rotor with me when I parked. The top had been slashed once, so I usually didn't lock it.

I'm a big fan of owning vehicles no thief would want
Maintenance is cheap too, when you don't do it

I really couldn't see why a thief would want an '04 civic to be completely honest.
Why not one of the newer cars?
But yeah I use to have a '99 Malibu. Not really sure why anybody would want this pos at all, but somebody busted my window to steal it. Thankfully I had an aftermarket alarm system inside so I guess it sent him/her running. :thumbup:

Well, how often are cars stolen?

Not as often as you'd think. But it's still nice to put up deterrents :thumbup:
It also has a lot to do with the maintenance costs mentioned earlier, insurance costs, and the fact that I don't care if someone wants to play chicken over a parking spot. Dings and dents are no problem.
Approx $1,000 every few years. I could spend more than that on maintenance alone for a new vehicle (and likely will for my wife's Honda Fit), not to mention repair costs are higher, license plates and tabs, etc.
