"new" car. bummer.

March 1st, 2013 at 03:29 pm

So T's motor seized in the middle of the interstate 2 weeks ago. Pair that with the already damaged trunk/bumper from the guy who had hit him 3 months earlier with NO insurance, and there was no way in heck it was worth repairing. Prior to the damange/motor seizing it was worth 2k tops.

So we went out to find another commuter car. $2900 dollars later we found a 4 door honda civic with 105,000 miles on it. It seems like a good car and T knows a lot about these cars so he'll be able to do most work and all maintenance himself. With the miles T puts on vehicles commuting to work we hope to get 3 years out of it before searching for the next car.

So yeah, two steps forward three steps back. We paid cash for the car but now addition payoff has been slowed down to end of May. Frown
