I've been a bad car-owner. Sure, I give my baby insurance, gas, and occasionally new windshield wipers - but maintenance I neglect. Turns out I owe my car well over $1000 in repairs and upkeep. New muffler, tires, wheels - oh yeah, and a new front passenger-side axle (at some point, likely during my accident, mine got busted and I've been driving on it ever since). That, plus a major tune-up, new rear brakes, and even more.
I actually feel pretty good about it, though. I feel like I owe it to my car; she's been good to me, and has yet to let me down. Yesterday had a new muffler installed, Saturday brings new tires and wheels.
