You always hear the phrase money doesn't buy you happiness. But I always in the back of my mind figured a lot of money will buy you a little bit of happiness. But it's not really true. I got a new car because the old one's lease expired.

When I was little I used to work with my dad on the engine of his car. Mostly this was a matter of me handing him wrenches.

I have a new little stray dog that I've had for about a month now. His name is Mikey Mohawk - he's this little terrier with a natural Mohawk. My friend found him hit by a car on Pico Boulevard.

I wasn't going to get such a nice car - I was going to get a cute little hybrid or something keep the trees happy - but then my grandfather died and it was all: retail therapy!

I listened to it last night for the first time since we started this project. I went out to my car and put it in and went to an empty parking lot and just listened and read the little pamphlet that came with it. After two or three songs I burst into tears.

Every little kid has always wanted to be a race car driver. This gets some of that out.

If I start outsourcing all my navigation to a little talking box in my car I'm sort of screwed. I'm going to lose my car in the parking lot every single time.

I was a little different. I still say I'm a little different because success to me is not having the most money or having the biggest car or the biggest house.

I did a lot of gasoline commercials - Hess Texaco. I was part of the family in the car the little brat in the back.

People spend so much time in their cars and it's a legal way to have fun by speeding a little bit or testing yourself a little bit and you get to invest in your car. For some people it becomes their baby.
