Ok.. Today is like any other friday.. We get in the car and go to our work to pick up our checks, cash them, deposit them in the bank so I can use paypal to buy christmas presents I bought on ebay and then we go to get gas.. For the first time in a while.. Instead of putting 5 dollars in.. We put a full tank in because we had the money and gas was really cheap at the gas station we went.. But when we went there, the car conks out right at the gas pump.. He goes out to check the oil and it's empty... Somehow we dropped 5 quarts in maybe less than a week .. Anyway.. He checks to see if there is any oil in the station conveinence store and there isnt.. (convienence store my patoot ) well he figures he'll get it on his way up to the gym.. We get home and he puts oil in the car (we only had one quart so he would've still had to buy some) and lets it run for a lil bit and he turns it off and restarts it to see if all is well and it made this horrifying screeching noise and didn't start at all...It was such a horrible noise.. Well either the starter has gone bad or that was the sound of barring on barring.. This may be a new engine.. We don't know.. All we know is that we don't have the money to keep dropping into this car and it's one thing after another so we come to the tough realization that this car has given us a run for our money and it's time to kick it to the curb and eat our losses of whatever we can't sell.. Now we have dropped well over $2000 in this car and we still have to pay off a 900 dollar loan that was used just to buy the car (uncle, not bank).. He is really pissed because he put 2 years worth of work to get that car on the road and not once in those 2 years have we not had to deal with something going up in the car.. He is really pissed because with our job.. He is basically working just to get to work and he just put a full tank of gas.. 25 dollars and now out of all times.. We can't use it.. Couldn't have been when we just put enough to get home or to work.. But after a full tank..


well right now what we are going to do is work to get my car on the road and drive that until we can either fix his car up or get a new car.. Hopefully we can get a new car and put this vehicular incompetence behind us and learn from this (if the car isn't good enough for the seller to keep...There's a reason)..
