4x4 still down

well hubby got the fuel pump done and guess what? THAT WASN"T IT. so here we go again going after fuel pressure regulator next. i'm just so glad i had hubby buy me a 3000 dollar 4x4 so i can still drive my 200 dollar trusty but rusty. i keep saying i'm gonna sell her but i just can't part with her (89 escort pony). the poor old girl is falling apart but she will go anywhere i ask her to. last year hubby said she wouldn't make it on our camping trip and she proved him wrong. his cadillac died on him though. i have only owned her for about 5 years now but she has outlasted a van, another escort, a cadillac, my 4x4, and even hubbys truck that runs half the time. bought her sight unseen went by a friends word and it turned out good. soon though i will have to put the ole girl out to pasture shes rustin out, passenger door dont work (climb in dukes of hazzard style), i know she needs at least 3 new struts (she got 1 a couple years ago), hatchback don't latch, but she kills mosquitos (if ya know what i mean. she has outlasted any car i owned before. with all the money we spent on our other vehicles we could have turned her into a brand new car. so now hubby is thinkin if she survives until my 4x4 is dependable he will put money into her and fix her up for one of my boys first cars. that would be nice cause then i know all the little quirks the car has.
