The "Tab Session Manager" add-on probably will address the majority of your gripes with firefox's inbuilt session manager :

  - It backs up your last 10 (can be changed) sessions.
  - You can save specifics sessions for perpetuity. In your example, you can save some or all of the windows under a single session named "Car". You can add/remove tabs/windows from it at any time from within the menu. And it is always there ready to be restored when you need.
  - For the rest of my unorgranised miscellaneous tabs (like random hackernews articles), i send them to OneTab rather than save them in a session.
  - Overall, very friction-less, intuitive UX.
>(The other thing I would like, is something in mobile Firefox that tells me how many tabs I have open. I hate the cute infinity sign.

Two (rather cumbersome) work-arounds : - Save all tabs as collection - will tell you how many tabs you have - The "Clear History" option also tells how many tabs you have currently. (Just don't accidentally click "Delete"!! )




It's a great plugin. I just wish a few of my sites didn't have issues with Firefox... most of which can be easily addressed when it doesn't find a browser it's biased for.
