New Rant for the day....
I just bought my Kid a new car a few weeks ago, Not a bad 1st car, '91 Honda Accord EX with decent miles. I got a pretty good deal on it too as I bought it off a friend.
The car needed a new distributor on it, cost my buddy $135 to put one on.... I just took it into the shop last week to get smogged before I can register it.
Failed smog, Timing is off due to: Wrong distributor... The one that is really needed is a bit uncommon and runs $600. They're going to rebuild the old one for the bargain price of $400. I'm stuck for a total of $500 now, not to mention I still have to drop a new stereo system in it. (The one thing I knew that defiitely had to be replaced when I bought it)
I knew there was a reason I stopped buying used cars and stuck to new cars, fvckme!... Bastards are cutting into my Superstars budget!
