    Finding Parts

    I have never really had trouble finding parts either but if you do then getting a second vehicle would be your best bet. Good luck finding one for parts!

    Family car drama

    I have never hit one myself, knock on wood. My sister called me this morning and she found out that her transmission is totally blown on her truck. It will cost about $2000 to fix it, so basically she is out a vehicle. She doesn't have that much money to put into it.

    noise polution

    Ha ha! That stinks. I am glad that I live in a pretty quiet neighborhood. There is a school across the street and the people that live around us are either elderly or families.

    Owner's Manual

    Have you tried Googling it? I don't normally look at my Owner's Manual so I don't think it would bother me all that much not to have one. You might be able to call a part store like CarQuest or AutoZone to get one.

    Parking crooked?

    Wow, we don't have anyone that really patrols the parking lots giving tickets. The police in my area have far more pressing things to deal with and parking tickets are the furthest things from their minds.

    New car and long trip

    My parents did this once a long time ago. My dad purchased a Jeep in Washington state. Him and my mom drove out there to pick it up and then drove it home. I think it is a great idea if you can afford it.

    Car Wash Fundraisers

    For the most part it really depends on what they are fundraising for. If they are fundraising to sponsor a trip to DC for local school kids or to send things to the troops overseas that's one thing but if it is to buy the local cheerleaders new uniforms or something like that then I don't.

    Family car drama

    So far this week my siblings are having the worst car luck. Yesterday my little brother called me to tell me he wrapped his car around a doe and it sustained $4,000 worth of damage. It's too bad because he almost has the darn thing paid off. Then this morning I talked to my sister and her car...

    Killer cart

    I don't know why people don't put those things in the corrals. They sure have enough of them in most parking lots. I see it all the time though were a cart is just left and then it hits a car

    Another Heater Problem

    We had a problem with the heater/AC in our one vehicle and it ended up being some sort of switch in the dash not flipping like it should. Short of having the entire dash ripped out we have to have all heat or all air.

    Black Friday?

    I don't do it either. Most of the time you can get better deals either a few weeks before or a few weeks after anyway. The stores just know that they can rope you in if they say it is a Black Friday sale.

    Secession

    I think it is silly to talk about seceding simply because the election didn't go your way. It is just ridiculous and unpatriotic if you ask me. I mean the majority spoke so I say get over it and quit being the problem.

    Seat covers

    I have always kept seat covers on my seats and the upholstery underneath looks brand new. If they wouldn't have been covered they would be really stained up by now. Do you keep you keep yours covered?

    BCS rant

    I couldn't agree with you more. I think they should have a plus 1 playoff like any other sport too. With 2/3rds of the calculation coming from humans, I think it is much too subjective to be accurate and often you don't get the 2 best teams.

    Gas Pump Rip-Off

    Wow, that is crazy but it doesn't surprise me. The gas stations and oil companies are always going to find a way to gouge us. I hope they all get caught and face the music.

    Snow storm!

    That sounds terrible, I hope you were able to stay home and be safe. I hate storms like that when they take you by surprise.

    Spring checklist

    I would think that it is just the regular maintenance that you do anyway-rotating the tires, cleaning the undercarriage, checking belts and tires, oil changes.

    Not mine

    It is amazing the kind of money someone will spend to be that tacky. I can't believe they would do that to a car. I would never do that.

    Chrysler Profit Sharing Checks

    That will be awesome for both the employees of Chrysler and the economy. Chrysler is an example for the other companies to follow. They came back from the ashes to become successful.

    Handling kids

    It really stinks when kids get attitude. Teenagers are so different these days then they were when I was a kid. They think they are entitled to things where we had to work hard to get those things.
