So I got pulled over last Wednesday for apparantly having a brake light out. I then take my car in on Friday to replace the light, and get the shocks replaced too since they felt like they needed it. Turns out, the suspension on my car is totally fucked, to the tune of $2000 just to fix the parts that are wrong, not including anything preventative. Suffice to say, my car is not worth throwing that much into at this point, so now I've gotta look for a new car...

I'm thinking a Kia Soul, but I need to do some more research. I've rented one before and it was definitely a good fit, at least. Regardless... that's a lot of money I 'm not looking forward to spending.
