She unexpectedly hit a patch of snow,on Highway 101,
in the Redwoods,& spun it,hitting both ends.She drove it home.
We had planned on keeping it until it died,& had it paid off.
Now we have to start looking for another car.
It had 106K miles on it,& is a 4cylinder,5 speed manual.
It's been a great car.

There goes my buying another truck.I was thinking about
buying another pre-97 Dakota,but was told I have to wait until we pay
off the new heater that we just got.
Before that,we remodeled the kitchen,replaced all of the appliances,
then the water heater went out,& now our roof is leaking.
I need a boring year,where nothing happens......

glad she's ok & no other car involved.
Didn't your son have an accident recently, also?
As far as bad luck goes, your family should be in the clear now!

(Not to mention, all the joys of home ownership)

I remember that scene in "The World According to Garp" -

A guy sees an airplane crash into a house, so immediately decides to buy it.


It's been pre-disastered! We'll be safe here!

No they didn't.We drove up to the crash site today - lots of plastic
scattered around.Picked up as much of it as we could find.Anyone need
any Fusion parts?
Now the search is on for another car - I'll start another post on that.
