I don’t need brakes

I had my car looked at early because I had more money than I thought I did. I took them to the dealer and he told me that they were fine. The squeaking noise is the “fault” within the car but the brakes are good for now. I will need new brake pads and rotors […]

I think I need brakes

One of the “faults” of my car is that the brakes tend to squeak when you start up the car. During this past weekend my brakes started squeaking when stopping at a stop sign. It doesn’t happen all of the time but it happened once too many times for my liking. Luckily I don’t have […]

My oil change was pretty cheap

I expected it to cost much more than it did. It was only $33 dollars and that included the oil change and fluid refills for my car. The next time I’ll need to get my tires rotated and get a new air filter. Before Winter starts, I also want to get a fluid flush but  […]

It’s time for a oil change

It’s way past my 3 months but I’ve just hit 3,000 miles. I don’t really drive that far or that often so I can really stretch the oil changes out. I just realized yesterday that I’m slightly over the 3k mark so I’ll be heading out one day this week to get it taken care […]

I made an appointment for my car

I never did get my carinspected even though it was due back at the end of October. I’ve just been procrastinating about getting it done. I don’t want to sit at the repair shop all day waiting for my car to be done. Besides we all know that once they have your car, they try to up-sell you like crazy. They’ll want to […]

Did you enter to win a Honda Hybrid yet?

I talked about this a couple of weeks ago already. So did you go and enter to win? The prize is a 2009 Honda Hybrid worth $24,000. That’s a awesome prize to win.
It’s part of the Charter Save Green, Go Green promotion. When you sign up for special money saving offers you get entered to […]

Kitting up my car

I have a Dodge. I’ve seen some really souped up cars that are similar to mine. They add spoilers and racing stripes among other things to make the cars even fancier. It seems weird to see a car that’s the same make and model as mine but looks a lot better because of the customizations. […]

Wouldn’t you love to win a car?

I know I sure would. I have a car but I would love to win a new car. Especially a hybrid car. That’s a great prize. When you look at the price of gas, the thought of a hybrid almost makes me drool. Did I mention that it’s a Honda Civic? That makes it worthwhile […]

I hope Floridians are protecting their property

Everyone thinks to cover their doors and windows when a tropical storm or a hurricane blows through town. Most people don’t think of their cars though. You can put your car on higher ground or take it out of the path of the storm. People should also use a ford truck cover or a cover […]

I’ve been on the phone all day

Trying to get quotes for my car. I’ve called several places to see if the rates are competitive. Some places aren’t even close and 1 place seemed way too low compared to the other places. I think that place is low-balling the quote to get you in and stick it to you.
I’ll search again next […]

I’m not paying that much for my car

Not to buy a new car, but to get my car fixed. If I wanted my car souped out like a supercharger, then that’s what I would do. I’m not trying to go to get a mercedes supercharger either. As if I could afford a Mercedes right now. Big eye roll. The place I went […]

I think I’ve got a budget together

To pay for school that is. I was looking at a website called up2drive.com and their auto loan calculators. I can refinance my car for a lower rate which will mean a lower payment. There are no application fees or hidden costs to get started. It’s over the internet so it’s convenient and I can […]
