dancerjodiSo tonight B and I are going car shopping. My check engine light went on this morning and I stopped by the mechanic's (i.e. the good guy I normally bring my car to) to see if they could take a look at it today.
I told him what they fixed at the Ford Dealer last week and he said "that part has NOTHING to do with the antifreeze". They are swamped today so tomorrow I'll be leaving the car for them to shut off the check engine light (and make sure the car is still safe to drive).
I'd like a Subaru Forester though I don't know much about them and wasn't planning on spending that much $ (actually, I wasn't planning on spending any $ on a new car, grrrr). Dodge Stratus is another option and of course there is good ole reliable (and cheap) Saturn.
We shall see. I guess its good that B is selling his stock options this week (the little bit that he has). And now I'm off to check Edmunds.com (great, great car site).
