Take it from me, I would rather go a full week without my cellphone, then take my car to the auto repair shop.   The other day I took my car into a well known dealership and paid over $1,000 to get it completely fixed.  Not only will some parts set you back financially, but labor alone will end up ruining your day.

Go without cellphone for a week. Buy a new car.  Do their own taxes by hand and babysit five children under age 5.   I find it funny that some people would rather buy a new car, instead of getting their older car fixed.  Which one would you choose?
