Ohh, okay lol. And to think I was trying to be helpful for nothing.

I appreciate the help and will forget your response when I'm actually ready to replace the leaking struts with something better.

Or I'll sell the car and never look back. Either way.

Hm... I should go for a drive, see how much nicer the newly fixed steering is. I just don't have anywhere to go.

Taco bell.

Just ate breakfast less than 2 hours ago, and I'm still drinking my coffee.

It's OK Sean, I got where you were going with that.

And if it's a road trip you are looking for, there is that idea you had about my penis and your ass...

Thanks John. Nice to know we're not all dumb enough to buy a crappy 1gn that breaks, keep a 2gn and buy an SRT while we're barely out of high school. (jk kyle)

Hey it didn't break for almost a year till I kwashed. I love my cars

I'm just teasing ya buddy. I would blame the roof rack for the crash.

Oh, BTW...

I'm using Barum Bravuras 2 all seasons and had absolutely no problems in the snow on Tuesday when we got nailed with 17" of snow. Just an FYI for those who claim you cannot drive in snow without snow tires, I just proved them wrong... if you know what you're doing and have a decent set of tires (mine were cheap as hell) you can drive in snow fairly easily.

There's the rub. Even the best snow tires can't help a bad winter driver.

I never heard of that brand of tire before.

I'm surprised the roof rack didn't break. It buckled the roof under it in places, and popped one of the screws out of the roof.

And yea, this is the first time I've ever used snow tires. Have always been fine without them. Hell, I wrecked with the snow tires lol.

Neither had I, but they were cheap and my old Dunlops on the front were trashed last summer. I drove for about 3 months on an alignment that was WAY off due to having the drivers side tie rod replaced without having the alignment done.

So I bought the cheapest tires I could for the front and I'm still using the old Dunlops on the rear (I know I know) and I've had no issues at all.

I got these tires from discount tire BTW.

Well, tie rod was done all was well... and today I'm about 90% sure my left rear wheel cylinder went out. Brake light came on, I have brakes but the pedal slowly goes to the floor and fluid is leaking out of the left rear wheel.

So, that's great.

112 out the door and the brakes are all fixed.

Had another guy tell me my rear brake shoes were "extremely worn" and were "definitely the original ones" and had to be replaced or I would die. OK, the last part is a slight exxageration, pretty sure he didn't say "die."

The hilarious part about that? The rear shoes have 5K miles on them... no way in hell those suckers were that bad.

Car started throwing a P0344 code today... less than a year after I just replaced the friggin Cam Position Sensor. Looks like I'm forking more ass-cash out for another one of these damn things tomorrow.

Did you install a factory part last time, or an aftermarket one? You should have at least a year warranty on it either way.

I bought the "Duralast" one from Autozone, and don't have the receipt or box from it, plus I paid cash. Easier to just buy a new one than to have them look it up.

Or you can get the factory part and have it last as long as your original one did (or longer).

Money is tight right now, so unless it's about the same price (21.99) I have to go cheap.

Nope, it would be more than that. This time however, keep your receipt in the glove box. You will need it

Nah, it'll be upstairs in my file box like everything else. I would have had it still, but i cleaned a bunch of old stuff out and determined I did not need that receipt anymore.

Odd that I just did that last weekend.

Stupid Wells sensors. I'm still rather jealous that yours lasted almost a year and mine only lasted 8 days

Car was sold at 9:15 this morning.

Yay for fat drug money stacks

Yup. Now time to go buy something else. Just waiting on my ride to wake the fuck up...

4K there? That's hot.

There are 175 $20 bills there.

Eh, I was close.

Yup. Going to look at a Blazer today for 1900 so I'll have some cash left over too!

Sweet! Make sure you keep some of that extra cash to fix the things that are broken on the Blazer (or whatever you get for that matter).

Oh I'm definitely keeping some cash in the bank now, I'm sure it'll need something.
