Sparky, howze our Sassy today?
I'm about to run off to a client session, but I've been thinking about you guys all day.
You gotta come to next month's Yappy Hour...the 17th at 4pm. We're walking, we're walking t /Dave . Can't wait to use that joke.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sassy is good. I didn't hear from the doctor today, but I'll call tomorrow if there's no message at home.
I think we'll be in town for that Yappy Hour!

Unfortunately, I don't know a mechanic, and this car is about a hour away from where we live.
I'd find a mechanic near where it is and take it there.

Do you have AAA? If you do check with them about good mechanics in the area that can check out a used car.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Dealership is your friend in this case. When I purchased my boat of a van, I took it to the Chevy dealership, told them I was thinking of buying the car, can they look it over. They spent about an hour and checked 80 major things. When I purchased the Prius, I took it to the Toyota, and they did the same thing, only it was like 120 points or something. It will cost you about 1-1.5 hours of labor (figure about $100) and well worth it.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Suzi, when I was in college, I test drove a used car from a private owner. I drove it into town and pulled into the nearest mechanic (it was an hour away from our home town, so I didn't know anyone close by). I asked if they ran diagnostics on cars and they said yes, for $25. Best $25 I ever spent. The mechanic told me it was a great car and I bought it. I drove that thing for 8 years (and it was already 5 years old when I bought it).

A lot of mechanics will do a pre-sale inspection for reasonable cost - under a hundred last I did it, though more than $25. Totally worth it.

Thank y'all so much. I pretty much copied the last bunch of posts and sent them to K-Bug. She says THANKS!

Suzi, why a Taurus and not a Japanese model? Just curious.

The status is NOT quo.

I am a bad, bad person. I canceled my doctor's appointment at the last minute because I just couldn't do it. Motivate myself to go, I mean. There's a small cancellation fee, and right now? Worth it.
