My previous pony was also a Ford Fiesta. But a passing motorist decided to modify it drastically by ramming it in the side as he drove past our house where we had it parked. He broke the poor pony’s hind left hoof. And the insurance company decided to give it a mercy killing. Pony with a broken leg is a dead pony. Especially if replacing the back axle costs more than the book value of the car.
So, the insurance company gave me $5000 to buy a new pony. I found a 2014 Ford Fiesta through Enterprise Rent-a-Car. Car payments for five years, but lower than I was still paying on the old pony. It is nice to have wheels again. My wife rode in the car for the first time this morning. She was impressed. But she thinks I paid too much. I must agree with that because the rule is that she is a better and smarter shopper than I am. If there is to be peace in the house, then I must admit that she is right, even if she is not.
So I have a new pony. No more driving around in a chibi clown car (also from Enterprise). It drives smoothly, quietly, and easily.

Ride well on your new pony. Don’t bridle your horse by the street, though.
I will try to remember… but this is Texas, after all.
