What's the latest on Phil's ride? Still going to trade it in?? Hope you get your tire issues fixed soon. I don't think I've ever rotated tires in my life on any of my vehicles...

Well with the failed emissions test, we're like screw it, we're not sinking any more money into that demon on wheels. We're eventually going to take it down to Carmax and just sell it for what they offer as long as it's within $500 of what we owe on it, which is about what its trade-in value is. Then we'll evaluate whether or not to get another car.

Just got my rental - a PT cruiser! It rides nice, but I'm not sure if I like how close my head is to the roof of the car.

That's what I like most about it - it's so much higher than my mustang, but not as big as an SUV. It's perfect for me! I just feel like I can see better - very important since the accident.

My Tracker was high up like that, but the roof wasn't so close to the top of my head. And the mini has crazy head room. I think I'm just spoiled with both of them and the 1ft between my head and the ceiling. haha

Damn cars!! That just sucks ass....I hope you get some good tires at a GREAT price!!

Since they're rare tires the best price I could get was $150/tire. Makes me quite disenchanted with my Mini.

Bad girl! You're supposed to rotate tires every 5000 miles!

If the place told you that when you had your oil changed, why didn't they just do it? When we get our oil changed, they rotate our tires for us.

It was the dealership, and I get free oil changes there, but they wanted to charge me almost $100 for the tire rotation.

[aliciaamnesia]

That's effing ridiculous!

[_jenbug_]

That's what I said! I was like, yeah... no. Then I noticed when I was at good year that they charge $4.50 a tire. Which I'll get done all the time on this car now.

[scintillated]

Damn, that totally sucks!! I hope you're able to get new tires soon.

As for the 8:15 am lunch hour...that is very wrong. When I was in high school, my lunch was scheduled at 10:15 am. Yeah. VERY WRONG.

[_jenbug_]

I think my lunch at school was really early too... it's been awhile though. We had 7 periods, and 5th period was lunch. Depending on where your 5th period class was you either had 1st or 2nd lunch. I think each class was like 45 minutes, and school started at 7:10 or 7:20... *does quick math* so 4 classes, 3 hours, first lunch was either 10:10 or 10:20. Ha, and to think now I grumble about McDonald's stopping breakfast at 10:30 with "Who the hell eats lunch this early?!!!"

Oh, man, I hate car problems!! Sorry you have to deal with that, Jen!!!!! Such an inconvenience and a burden on the wallet.

[_jenbug_]

It really is. Sucks harder when the car is only a year and a half old. :/
