I Wish We Could Buy a New Car!

But we can't. We can't afford it. Well, maybe we can with all the auto repairs we have been making over the past year or so. It just would be nice to have a car that was covered under a warranty. I used to love the first new car we bought as a married couple...but it has only given us problems since the beginning. I guess we should have noticed the warning signs when the engine had to be replaced less than a year after we purchased the car (atleast it was under warranty then). It has had problems ever since. And, it has now broken down twice in the past two weeks. Kevin is currently with a friend trying to tow it to the auto repair shop with his friend's truck. Hopefully it works. Otherwise we will have to pay atleast $150 for a tow truck. The additional $5 a month to add towing onto our car insurance is starting to look like a good idea. Too bad I didn't think it was necessary before this!

Sorry to hear about all your car troubles. It is never convenient for cars to not cooperate. Hopefully this is the end to your car issues.

I hate car problems...we had the same situation with our Nissan Altima, anything that could go wrong with it went wrong and it was always at the worst possible times! Sorry to hear about your car problems; hope it will all get figured out soon.
