But how you tell periods of time in your life by the car you were driving...
I was chatting with a friend last night, and describing one time when I got pulled over as a teenager. I knew I was 19-20, because I was driving my Buick Regal. Talking with friends about the infamous TGIFridays bar fight, I knew it was 1997 because I was driving my Caddy then. Another friend chimed in that he remembered his son's age because he bought a new car the year he was born.
Then we had to go and buy a Honda and screw all that up - we've had the car for almost 10 years and it shows no sign of letting up...
That is all.

Sometimes I have to specify exactly which dark green 1995 Ford Taurus I am talking about.
Totally not the same, huh?
Uh, no... :)
I went through a period where my cars were such monumentous pieces of crap that I was buying at least one, sometimes two, a year...
Drop $500, drive it for 3-4 months, patch it back together for another month or two, buy another clunker...
