Hold on just one second... Please, inform me where all this occurred, because it certainly wasn't on C&G. First of all, I don't know everything and it really bothers me when people try to tell me what I do and do not know. Secondly, even you had kind words when I bought the Millenia. The only dissenter, was, ironically enough, Josh. So as you can see, I'm quite confused where all these "We all," "Moneypit," and "Handle on things" statements came from, besides your own imagination. Thirdly, I see no relation between the situation with the Millenia and the situation with the Cutlass. One has been given attention continuously while every week a new problem pops up, one didn't receive the right attention at the right time when its one and only problem popped up. One I can't afford to drive, one I can't afford to fix. What exactly am I doing with the Cutlass that I supposedly did with the Millenia? Since you seem to know more about my situation than I do, who better to ask than yourself.

*Yawn* They could have atleast given it the coupe's rear fascia.

Hmm... I have water coming through behind the dash on the passenger side, too. Well, that's just dandy.

It's still a Daewoo.

I think they're both equally ugly.

The other week while it was raining pretty hard, I noticed my back seat was wet... Soaked on the one side. I noticed water dripping from plastic to headliner seam. Needless to say, I don't want to know what's going on under that vinyl top.

x2. Even I don't want huge dildos towering over me.

Unrelated topic, but on that point, I fear the Cutlass has major problems that are just starting to shine through. Like the leaking roof and increasing number of electrical gremlins. However, it's actually starting to run a tad bit better as the days go by and it gets closer to spring and summer.

Understood, but, here's my question, if my uncle, who's a mechanic and the mechanics at a trusted professional garage cannot seem to correctly diagnose it, how do you expect me to? I'd rather not have to work on a car, yes, but I'm not opposed to it. I worked on my Grand Am back in the day and did most of the work on my Millenia whenever it needed it. I think you're just confusing the situation with the Cutlass where I actually can't work on it because I have to drive it to work nearly every day without having another car to drive. I barely had time to change the sparks last year (course, I wasn't expecting to be an hour plus job). If this were the summer, however, I would have the option of using a motorcycle, so it could sit in the garage and actually be worked on whenever I had free time. But it's not, it's still quite cold out there. My situation with the Millenia is that I don't want start putting money into while all my money is going towards the Cutlass in gas and random little things that never fail to break. Perhaps I worded it in a way that wasn't clear. I'd rather start working on it when I have something reliable and easy on gas to drive so that I actually have money to fall back on besides my savings. Know what I mean? Yes, though, that is basically the plan if I go the beater route. To me, a granny car is a beater. It's undesirable, it's cheap, and holds no emotional value. Thus, a beater.

I post here mostly after dark if you haven't noticed. I work daylight hours and do so most days. Would you like me to work in the dark? Also, it's not a matter of working on it. My main concern is a matter of diagnosing it and not throwing money away trying to do so. Personally, I think it would be better to do this when I'm in a better position financially. Maybe I'm wrong, though.

Beeeaaaast. A pretty nice Miata for sale, but considering the year and mileage, it's far out of my range.

World Wide Suicide - Pearl Jam

I'd like to do that... How likely that is, though, is another story.

Same here.

Happy birthday, you dirty old man. :wink:

Nice.

That was Sunfire and the plan wasn't quite like that. It's on the back burner, that's not going to change. I'm either going to buy a good car via loan or a beater via cash. Yes, I'm not going to know them as well as I know my Millenia, but right now, I don't feel I should be throwing money away, trying to fix a car. I went through this with my Grand Am. While the issues don't seem nearly as fatal, it's a financial hassle that I dont want to go through while I'm still driving the money pit that is the Cutlass. That's my main concern. As said, it's going to come down buying another vehicle, whether with cash or a loan. That's what I'm pondering... Not whether I want to hand cuff myself to a sinking Millenia.
