Default Piggyback rides?
It'* what I call it when my car is towed. Since owning my car..it drove for a new transmission and new engine. Meanwhile it has refused to run after being on the road a couple times from fuel related issues.

To date..it'* gotten 3 or 4 piggy back rides this spring/summer which are the total number of tows since I've owned it.

How many piggyback rides has your car gotten?

Zilla=1. When my trans lines blew (recall work wasn't done by original owner).

SLEeper=0. Almost did yesterday though, but I live close enough to work that I was able to drive it home with the bad water pump.
