Last week, when I was watching my husband curse and sweat as he wrestled the alternator from my car (seriously, who designs these things? Packing an object that is 8″ x 8″ x 6″ in a space that is accessible only by a 5″ x 5″ x 4″ opening isn’t exactly the smartest idea!), I joked that I should find a mechanic to be my sugar daddy. Seriously, if you own a car, then you know that Dallas auto repair is expensive as hell to deal with. It seems like even the simplest of repairs can wind up running into a bit of money, especially if you don’t have the proper tools. Oil change? I hope you have an oil filter and that your pan is in decent condition. Brake job? Better check the rotors while you’re at it, and pray that they’re doing all right.
Can you tell I’m just a little bitter over the money we’ve had to shell out this year? In 2010 alone we’ve forked out over $1500 in car maintenance, inspections, and repairs. Kill me now, please. And you know, it’s times like these I wish I had a Chevy Silverado or another American-made car. Imports are expensive when it comes to parts and repairs!
