Hillsboro to be precise. First time Mazda owner, just bought a new 2022 Miata RF in Platinum Quartz. A retirement present to myself.

I drove it for 3 weeks and got rear-ended while I was stopped at an intersection so now I’m waiting for body work. It’ll be OK, just a fender bender and I have it at a very qualified shop that the dude’s insurance is going to fight me about. Oregon doesn’t let them pick your repair shop but they do allow them to cheap out on the rates they pay. So yay I get to mud wrestle with State Farm Imsurance.

My previous car is a 2000 Saab 9-5 Aero that I’ve had since 2005, just turning 200k miles and still going strong.

Cheers, Carl
