Cars, Cars, Cars,

I hate the responsibility of owning cars.
It looks like we have another car that we purchase used that is biting the dust.
UGH. Ethan's car broke down earlier in the week, on our way to taking it to the repair shop to get what we thought was the alternator fixed it according to Todd sputtered, black smoked and died.
So I am leaving the decision up to Todd to either spend over $1000.00+ to repair this car or take that $ and look for another used car. Either way we don't know what is around the corner. If we spend the $ on repairs we still have to fork out money for tires and in the near future a muffler will be needed. If we decide to purchase another used car who knows what or how long before we will be shelling out money on repairs.
We just need a car to last 3 more years to get him through his college years. Then once he gets out of college and finds a job he can purchase a more reliable car for himself.
