Love-Hate
Me and my car have always had sort of a love-hate relationship. I loved my car, my car hated me. It sort of has had some weird problems with it. Like, for instance, the sunroof leaked at one point and they had to take it apart to fix it. Something went weird with some emissions thing at one point, and of course, last month with the whole part failure thing in the engine. Well, through all of that, I still loved my car.Today, the love-hate relationship has shifted. I used to love my car, but now I hate it.
I loved it because it didn't have air conditioning. Now I hate the fact that it doesn't. I loved it because after we moved here it still had Alberta license plates. Now, not only does it have Illinois plates, but I had to pay somebody $45 dollars to install the bracket mount so that it can have Illinois license plates on the front. AND, now this is the kicker, I loved it because it had a sunroof. Now my sunroof is broken and it will cost about $1000 to have it fixed.
Life sucks.
Cars suck.

Poor Jo. Really expensive lemons suck. I wish I could give you some idea what to do with those lemons, but my experience with really expensive lemons wasn't all that great. In the end it left me feeling like I was screwed. But I'm sure you'll figure something out. Is it worth selling your car (compared to the price it would be to fix it)? Do you or anyone else know a mechanic? I wish you luck!
Poor Baby!!!:(
So, what has happened with your sunroof??? Would it be cheaper to get Air???
Sooooo sad that you no longer have AB plates :(
Love ya Bunches!!!!! :) :) :0
I haven't talked to anybody about putting air in my car. But I might think about it. Right now I'm just going without the sunroof. The mechanism inside of it that opens and closes it has binded, basically tying itself up, supposedly. I'm going to call a couple other places to get quotes on what they figure it would cost, and then we'll see......
You could always have $23.00 iced tea :):)
Mmmmmmm, $23.00 Iced tea!!!
