I am sad...
I took my car in for tires and breaks, and told them that it had also just hit 100,000 miles... Before I go any further, my car goes to a shop that my AT&T store sells company phones to... We mutually "hook each other up"... So I am getting a few hundred dollars off the work on my car...
So, they told me they would check the timing belt on the car to see how it was holding up... And I told them that when I go over bumps, the front passenger side "clicks"...
Well, my car didn't only need tires and breaks... It needs a timing belt and struts as well...
So, for what I thought would be a $600 trip to the shop, it is turning out to be over $2,000! We aren't doing the struts yet... Just the timing belt, breaks and tires... If we were to add the struts in, we'd be looking at over $3,000!!!
Well, I will officially be broke and pinching pennies again after this trip to the shop... And I will be saving money to get the struts done ASAP :/
