*sigh*
It just wouldn't start this morning. It made a funny little noise and wouldn't start. Bill came over and tinkered around, but could only guess that maybe it was the timing belt. He said that like it was a really really bad thing. I have a call in to an unemployed ex mechanic who might work on it. I am so tired of car problems and simply haven't got the money to put in to one more frickin car. This one isn't even paid off yet. Was I too optimistic to think this might be the car that I keep for more than a year?
I JUST FIGURED IT OUT. It's the tires. Every car that I have lost, at least since moving to Michigan, died shortly after I gave it new tires. All of them swear to god. Motherfucker.

i have a volvo you can have - needs a transmission system. it's only been sitting for 2 years or so
Good thing that no one is advising you to set it on fire and collect the insurance money. Good thing. :)
I have the same problem with cars. Some of us just have bad car-ma. We maintain them and replace tires and get tune ups and the cars ALWAYS have ridiculously expensive problems before they're paid off. I know other people who don't even get oil changes who keep their cars for twelve years or more. People like us should just buy $500 beaters and replace them every year.
stepho - how long have you just been waiting for the opportunity to use the word "car-ma"?? :)
That really sucks.
If you need to borrow my car for a while you can. I can take Aaron to work and my dad can take him home after work.
Lemme know.
