Okay, so, about three weeks ago, give or take, I took my Tracker in to get the front passenger side break caliper fixed, only to discover that the rear breaks had pretty much disintegrate, too, and the parts wouldn't be in for a few days. We are still waiting on the parts, so Coyote is out of commission.
This past weekend, my brother rolled his pickup truck. The truck itself actually took the hit rather well - the windshield, however, is pretty much shattered, and the only dent is of course at the seam between windshield and cab ceiling, so that will have to be fixed before he can find a windshield that will fit. That leaves us with two vehicles down for the count.
About a half an hour ago, my mom stopped briefly at home to grab some food before she went off to another to home care appointment. Just as she was leaving, the heater coil on her VW Passat failed rather catastrophically and filled the cab with a whoooooooole lot of smoke, so that one can't be driven any time soon, either.
Three cars in less than three weeks. Seriously, Karma, what did we ever do to you?
On the bright side, my parents are kind of car mongers, so we have a few spare, and we just acquired my grandmothers car since she can't legally drive it anymore. That means despite our mishaps, we still have three functioning vehicles to use between the four of us. For now, at least. ::knocks on wood::
