I think that I got off pretty easy, in a way, though. For the 3 years that I've owned it, including the purchase price, maintenance, and repairs so far, its cost me around $4000, which is only a little more than $100/month. Some people lease vehicles for 3 or 4 times that price, only to give them back in the end.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1951','MrCorey'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1951','MrCorey','This stuff can happen.

You don't realize how important transportation can be at times. <b>Corey</b>, are you going to get anything from the bucket of bolts to be able to put on a replacement? I know when I took it for a spin I can remember it being in good shape, except for the engine apparently. They say things happen in threes, 1. You dropped $600 into it, 2. engine blew up, 3... coming soon!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1950','MacBros'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1950','MacBros','Jeepers, you would have thunk\' it that they would have mentioned any engine problems to get more cash from you when you dropped the $600.\n\n<b>Devin<\/b>, I like your idea, but once you have a car and loose one, you really regret loosing it and that feeling sucks.

Devin, I like your idea, but once you have a car and loose one, you really regret loosing it and that feeling sucks. You don’t realize how important transportation can be at times.

Corey, are you going to get anything from the bucket of bolts to be able to put on a replacement? I know when I took it for a spin I can remember it being in good shape, except for the engine apparently.

They say things happen in threes, 1. You dropped $600 into it, 2. engine blew up, 3… coming soon!

I'm sorry to hear that Corey. That is one of the main reasons I can't afford to own a car. With the unpredicatably of gas prices, the outrageous cost of insurance, and the yearly cost of repairs being a car owner is super expensive. What I hate the most is that you spent 600 dollars and didn't get your return! :sad: But like you said, that is life sometimes! Keep on trucking nonetheless and everyone, lets go green!!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1949','devin'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1949','devin','Oh man.
