Here we have some of today's ramblings.
FIRST
Thank you everyone who helped out and continue to help out my mates time of need (@sushinomster)
SO any-who, I'm down with some sort of sickness and cannot sleep and Sushi is fast asleep before she has a long trip ahead of her tomorrow morning.
SO IMA WRIGHT ABOUT MY SUPER DUPER EXCITING LIFE
Recently i sold my first car of 12 years (the 1965 mustang) to pay off some credit cards and improve my credit score in preparing to get a new car.
Recently my daily driver's (a 2008 for focus) Transmission decided
"Hey Kold! I don't want to work properly anymore anymore for you! So that said I'm gonna bang gears till i explode, kay? kay."
Originally my plan was to sell it with a busted transmission BUT I am a fully body Master Auto Tech with a lift in his garage. So i get on good old E-bay and purchase a used transmission out of a wrecked car had it shipped to work and well i installed it this weekend after replacing a few Seals that the salvage yard dicked up upon removal out of the Donner car.
~~~BE THIS A LESSON HEAVY FOOT GUYS WITH AUTO TRANS~~~
Now what lead up to the premature failure of the transmission in the first place? its made one trip to Colorado (not by me i lent it out to a roommate) she got stuck in the snow and I'm sure they did a few rock and roll maneuvers to get it unstuck. I've done this too in 2010 to get it unstuck in a snow bank in my driveway. ALSO my speed runs in the Mountains of West Virginia (hill climbs and down hill speed runs (about 6 hill climbs) did it in.
Now what am i going to do with it?
Well being that i am sick of the car it was meant to get me through college like it was intended too. it is paid off...
i have a few options here. Sell it for a good amount for a down payment on a new car that i really want
Drive it for a bit save up the money for the down payment. then sell it with better down payment.
Or Keep it and get an older model of the car that i want and have two cars one as a daily traffic grinding commuter car and a weekend warrior type car.
I feel like i might want to lean more to the latter since it would be a nice to have a comfortable commuter car.
But it woudl also be nice to have a comfortable newer car that that i always have wanted.
What is the car i am talking about?
a
Blue, Subaru WRX STI Wagon/hatchback
Yes
ANYWAYS thanks for reading!
