junker

I've gone through 9 cars in less than 15 years: from one junker to the next.

It's a bit like buying the... junker of your childhood dreams.

If you can only afford a $4320 car, you're buying a 20 year old junker.

Well, maybe in Menlo Park they do. There are a lot of price points in between an $80 walmart junker and a $3000 Colagno.

I was once filling an old junker with gas when it spurted out from that tank and all over me. At first it was funny and felt nice and cold on the body.

Cars which - when it inevitably gave up the ghost - would be replaced by another junker.

I have an old junker phone that I use just for this and being a universal remote that never leaves my end-table.

Not true at all. I'm Australian and I regularly cross from Canada into the US in my junker car full of snowboarding or camping gear.

I've had the opportunity to drive a luxury model car - and I can say it is definitely better than my junker.

Same as if my junker car broke down, I'd call my uncle, because he's a mechanic, and he'd berate me for not having a reliable car, then fix it.

OnTrac seems to use basically junker cheaply painted white mid-90s minivans whenever I see them about.

Almost 20 years ago, I had a ten-speed junker I bought for $20 just for riding around town, only three gears actually worked, but it got me around.

Honestly, I think that the only way these two players survive is to stratify their services: high end with good drivers vs. the college kid with a junker full of empty pizza boxes.

"became a hand-me-down"Speaking of "hand-me-down", the pi kind of kills the used/junker PC marketplace for little experimental projects, when you can work on your project instead of debugging old/worn out hardware for only $40 or so.

Another question is for the low income people that subsist on sub $1000 used cars, does a junker autonomous car continue to function, or are the poor now having to devote a significantly larger portion of their income to transportation?
