22 festivas?

Why yes I have had 22 total festivas! I will be posting one for sale here as soon as I get permission. I got my first in 91. I've been hooked ever since. For me total cost of operation trumps mpg. And though the festy gets up to 53 (consistent best among multiple owners) where it really shines is it's durability. I've lurked here a few times. Now I'm stepping up honestly because I have one I need to sell.

I see several names I recognize here.

22 Festivas! Wow that is crazy. Do you have a small junkyard or something?

Welcome to the forums. If anyone needs a festiva part they will know who to go to.
