My Cars of a Lifetime series over at Curbside Classic is quickly reaching the present day. Today I write about my little red Toyota Matrix.

I ended up with this car in my divorce, and it turned out to be a great little hauler. Well, except for the multi-thousand dollar repair, which came a few months before I wrecked it.
I owned this car when I started blogging, and have shown you many photos of it and told many stories about it. But now I’ve had a chance bring them all together.
