Something about a gasket being out. Whenever I would start my car, the RPM would jump a bit before settling and I could smell gasoline for a few seconds. I also needed new front tires. And $200 was just on diagnostics.

I can't afford anything more but they also told me my brakes are down to 2mm and my front tires aren't aligned so that's even more repairs in the near future.

What happened to your car?

I'm pretty sure I told you guys how last year I cracked my transmission because of the giant block of wood on the road.

You would have needed to get an allignment anyway if you're putting new tires on it.

Why is the car in such a sorry state?

Why do I feel like they made up a few extra problems just to make it more expensive?

I've only ever owned GM and I have had one single problem with my vehicle.

When was the last time you brought it into the shop? Your mechanic should be doing a once over every time it's in. That's why the labour charge is so expensive.

Get a better mechanic, never take your car to big corporate places. $200 for diagnostics is fucking outrageous.

You've got bulletproof small blocks though.

I imagine somone like Ian is driving a beat cavalier or lumia.

Fair enough, but I reckon someone like Ian also doesn't take exceptional care of his vehicle. That's what I was getting at.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
Fix it yourself you pussy

Should have spent your time learning how your car works instead of watching fucking anime
