Your First, Not A gun

My first car was a 1981 Toyota wagon. Bought as a used car from a friend, $800, mileage was not high when I bought it, less than 60k miles on the meter. Soon, I found it had an annoying issue -- very frequently, it could not be started by key. Need one person to push it to start the engine, so I usually had to find a hill to park it

If no hill (well, not always lucky),,,, pushing a 2000-lb wagon around the parking lot was not light labor.
