that car is the BIGGEST POS I have ever seen. She spent $2k repairing it, then we went to IL from VA to see her parents. 1 hr from her dad's house and the piece of crap stalls out and won't start (all kinds of problems i.e cracked cylinder head, etc etc.) Ended up having the engine replace for $5k. i told her to ditch the damn thing and get a new car, but she was upside down in it.........

My sentiments exactly. I'm trying to get her to take her brother's LS1 Camaro, but I don't think she likes the idea of getting shafted in the gas economy area especially with the predicted 3.40 for gas her in the spring.

Welcome to the club.

Eventually you'll get to the point where every time you find something else broken you'll just shrug it off. I reached that point about 6 months ago.

I take that back. I had a friend riding with me a couple weeks ago and he likes to make fun of the stuff that I haven't fixed yet (Boost gauge and the overhead thermometer deal) oh yea and thats the day my door decided it was stuck open. Anyways he thought it would be funny to steal one of my keyless entry's and unlock and lock the doors while I was driving. I found myself saying "what the f**k now"
