Guess What?

April 23rd, 2008 at 02:00 am

I broke a spring on my Ford Taurus today! It tore a giant ring/hole in my tire. Completely blown out. Yikes!! You know what that means...a car repair bill.

Before I tell you how much, I want to say that it happened in my neighborhood only three houses from mine. Luckily, my husband was still home from work to help me figure out what happened. I also have the cash to pay the bill in full. For these, I am so very grateul.

Including a regular oil change and air filter, my total bill for struts, tire, and springs with labor and taxes is....

$1,404.93!!

    Sorry to hear that! Glad you're OK.

    Speaking of which, thanks for reminding me to take care of my own flat tire!

    Ouch! That's quite a chunk of change! Having the cash on hand is great, though!
