lyssacWell, yesterday sucked, but turned out ok. We couldn't get our car to run. It starts fine, and will idle, but as soon as you give it some gas it dies. we think that either the fuel filter is clogged from bad gas, or all of the recent rain resulted in water getting into the tank.
We have another car that we had planned on using as a trade-in on our van when we got it, but yesterday when we went up to start it, to take it in, we found out thst someone stole our battery! It wasn't going anywhere.
We finally paid a neighbor to drive us to the car lot and ended up putting a down payment on a mini van instead. It's not great. We have to replace the thermostat, but they knocked $1500 off of the price for us. That was pretty good. We have the van we need for the triplets now, but have two car payments to make.
