Brakes and stuff
Sooooo...
I am proud of myself for walking 3 days in a row. Haven't been on a walking/running program in awhile and decided it was high time I got to wear some of the cuter smaller things in my closet. Ended up on 2 walks today. Took a 1.5 mile walk this morning after I talked to the AllTune and Lube guy about the additiional cost for my brakes and then this afternoon I decided to walk and pick up my car. That was 3.5 miles. I'm still nasty sweaty.
Question: would you pay 656.08 plus taxes for your brakes to be replaced? I don't think I will thank you. All I wanted was to replace the brake pads on my 2001 Toyota MR2 Spyder convertible. He said I needed to replace the rotors and the rear disk and stuff. Guys... my brakes aren't even squealing yet. Hence why I wanted new brake pads - these are getting low - but aren't worn through. One of our friends, Dustin who was at our wedding, is kindly going to look at my car tomorrow.
But shouldn't I be able to just get new brake pads? Even if I had to get the whole brakes replaced - shouldn't that be around $300. I just cannot fathom spending $700 dollars on brakes.
