Ok, so most of you have probrably read my sad post I put on here. My wife quit her job, and I am trying to get ride of our vehicles and get cash rides. Well I found the car I want and I am really working hard to get it. I found it the middle of the week ,and I have already come up with half the money to buy it. Problem is, I am running out of stuff to sell. I sold my extra wheels and tires, I sold my PS3 and I sold old topper. I need some work, or people to buy stuff from me or something. I don't really have much else to sell!
I will gladly accept donations! Hey, get an early start on your tax write off's for next year. (JOKING PEOPLE, GET OVER YOURSELVES)

That thing is a peice of ****.
Find something cheaper/stock/reliable if you need another car. I see cars on craigslist for ~600-1200 dollars all the time that just need minor problems fixed.

Hmm, well, I have driven and worked on alot of those cars. They are good cars and drive great. Future 5.3L candidate is what I am looking at. I like station wagons, I always have. My first car was an 1986 Buick Century Estate Wagon. I like the room.
I am built wierd, long legs short arms. With my shoulder damage, it is very difficult to get comfortable in a car. Newer cars they want the steering wheels away from you so you don't hit them in a wreck, so I drive with my arms fully extended all the time, which equals to me not being able to function after a 20 minute drive. I normally drive my old pickup everywhere for the simple fact I don't hurt.
This will be for my wife, and for when we go places as a family. In a years time, her vehicles never see more then 8000 miles. I seldom see more then that myself anymore.
I have something that I drive every day that is reliable. And there are extra cars to drive if something breaks down. For those that know, my Dad is handicap and we live with my parents to help do stuff he isn't able to do. If there is a need, I can always drive something of theirs.
And anyone taking me seriously about the donations needs to get a clue. I have a friend I can walk up to, and he will hand me the cash out of his pocket without a question. YES, he will flat give it to me. He has only asked for the money back 1 time, however, I always pay him back.
Beside, I only need another $800, I need $1800 total.
Oh, he told me he fixed the front end too. Said it's ready to drive. Hoping to go look at it first of the week. I have found several priced $1500-$10,000 in this area, and one nice body with no engine and transmission for $600.
