[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the tips on car seats and sedans. I want out of this truck more than anything but don't want to create more of a money mess. To be clear, when we got the car we could afford it as both of us were working. The long period of unemployment messed us up since we had to use all of our savings. The good news is that a new mechanic said it wasn't the engine but coils and spark plugs. We are looking at 1k for repairs, yay!!! That we can pay! The plan is to fix it and really make a dent in building up our savings/repairing our credit.

Thanks all!! [/quote]

Yay!! Did the original estimate come from Sears, by any chance? They once tried to charge me for a $1k repair on my 4-yr old Acura. I started to get teary and my bf laughed and said, "Get another estimate." I went to Baird Automotive in Arlington (who I could not recommend more highly) and they charged me about $60 bucks to tighten a few things and replace a bolt. Most of the charge was labor and diagnostic. Those guys are the best. Check them out.[/quote]
