I FINALLY GOT MY CAR BACK! for quite a lot of money. >.< they probably could've just replaced the transmission for what it cost. >.< (90% labor and only 10% parts.) the guy at the garage suggested i maybe drive it more than just to the grocery store once a week. i think i can do that. it's so nice to be mobile again.
(
a thing i really like about the old guard and a thing i keep noticing. )
