There is much truth to this statement. When I think back on my previous cars, they really did define who I was at the time.
I can remember the car I had when I was in college and got married. I can remember the car my wife and I had when we relocated across the country for graduate school, and I most definitely remember the car we had when our first child came along.
The cars continue to change and it is surprising just how tight my memories are tied to each car. How about you?
