Let's see,
2000 Jeep Wrangler
- 90000+ miles, time for tires...cha-ching...but I knew it was coming...as opposed to some of the following:
2003 Tahoe
- Drivers side power window Broken, unable to self repair
- Rear door handle broken - self repaired
- ABS kicks in between 10 and 5 mph on dry pavement .... bad sensors or rings, unable to self repair
- Rattling noise underhood...may be waterpump
Not yet brought to dealer to learn the Cha-Ching
2005 F-350 HD edition brought in for annual inspection ...
- Woops, MA now requires Wheel Chocks to be carried .. need to buy
- Woops, Horn Broken [I use the finger anyway], Horn dead, but something else causing issue (Clockspring or relay)...Cha-Ching
- Worn Ball joints...can't pass inspection without repairing ... CHA-CHING
- Bell housing drip...neep to remove cab and repair...WARRANTEED

...but still $100 deductable
2009 Ford Focus
- Get a call from Anne this morning that on her way to work the Check Engine Light came on...I sure hope this is a Fuel Cap issue!
But the ULTRA is Cleaned and Detailed with fancy new hinges since I will probably be riding it all winter long! Anybody know the best snow tire to get for the Bike?
