I have a 98 Chevy Lumina. 115,000 miles on it. It blew something (piston, bearing, whatever) in the Engine. Engine needs to be replaced. That’s about 2500 bux at worst…sure we could shop around and get it cheaper, but that’s not the point. It also needs all new tires, which is another 5/600. It just seems like a lot of money to sink into a car that is basically a piece of crap. We owe under a grand on it. So, I’m thinking we take our three grand or so, put it down on a brand new vehicle before the repossesion takes place. I know that they sell the car at auction or do something and we will owe the differnce on their recovery. But I just don’t want to deal with this car anymore. It seems really messed up that a car that is relativley so young would be so useless. So what do we do??? Actually sink the money into it or go with the new vehicle plan??
