Car-less :(

We thought we could repair our old car which died on Friday but the price is just too much for the old clunker, so we are now looking into donating it or selling it for parts or something. We will now be car-less. This couldn't come at a worse time - in the middle of winter and when we are trying to wrap up our renos (it was great for hauling all the crap from Home Depot)

DH is looking into getting a used, 4th-hand car just to get us through the 1st quarter of the year and then after that, we have to look into getting a good used car.

Just thought I would share...

Re: Car-less :(

  • Lawby, I'm really so sorry to hear this!  I'm sure you and DH will find a reasonably-priced vehicle that will keep you mobile and get you through this winter. Maybe leasing a vehicle interim is a possibility? Sometimes it seems if it's not one thing, it's another, but hang in there! Just think when spring arrives, the fruits of your labor of your home will be so satisfying and I can't wait to see all the fabulous "after" pics. Keep us posted.
  • ooh Karllen, that totally sucks! I wish I had a spare to give you. =/ Both Joey and I's car's are 10 years old and we are praying we get another year or so out of the both of them. It's nice not having the car payment, but it sucks when something goes wrong and it costs you a fortune to repair it. Good luck in the car search.

  • Thanks for the support ladies. We have begun looking. DH did not enjoy the long walk to his work site in Brooklyn today.

  • That sucks!  I am so sorry.  Hopefully there will be some good deals on used cars after the holidays.
