Bringing this thread to the top. . .
I KNEW I could count on GreekChat to help me in my time of need! All I had to do was perform a search!
I think I'm being faced with having to buy another car. Oil light came on yesterday (and hubby had just changed the oil about 2 weeks ago) and yesterday afternoon he picks the car up to check it out, but before going home, he stops to put gas in it. He calls me from the gas station and says "It died." I'm asking what died and he's telling me that my car died.
Long story short, we get it towed, and the mechanic couldn't open up the engine - it was locked up. So they're dropping the oil pan to see if they can see into the engine. If we have to get another one, it'll be between $3,500 and $5,000 (like we have that under our mattress!). It's not worth it. My car is a '96 Ford Taurus with 175,000+ miles. I really would like a good used Honda accord or an Explorer.
This thread gave some good advice, hence the reason I brought it back TTT just in case anyone else is planning to purchase a vehicle.
