Messing with the blogging world since 2005

My world

The latest

July 15, 2005

I’m going to look at the Integra on Saturday. Hoping all works out well.

However, I did a Carfax report on it and it has been salvaged at one point and time. So an insurance company has totalled it at some point. However, the one note it shows is “recovered theft,” which likely means it was stolen, totalled, and then recovered. I’d just like to know if this car was wrecked at all and not sure if I will find out. Dammit.

Thoughts on it all? Looking for opinions!

Seriously

July 14, 2005

Seriously folks, this is hard work having to find a car. Especially with:

– people not calling back
– Having to find something a little quicker than planned
– Doing research one each car you see listed
– Not having a lot of days off/time to travel to see cars

All I know is I want to be in a new car by the end of next week. I’m not asking for much. Five-speed is about my main thing.

Found a couple I am going to look into.

– 1999 Acura Integra
– 2000 VW Jetta
– 1998 VW Cabrio (soft top!)

There are a couple others I have circled in the Want Ad Digest I have to call on. Hopefully I’ll at least be able to call tonight and all. That would be bonus to be able to get a couple of calls in and have the chance to maybe make a round trip and see several cars on Saturday. And if I like one, want to buy it and all, get my ass up early Monday and go get it done.

I figure this is a car I’m going to have for the next 4 or 5 years. So I want to make sure it’s something I like.

For those that might read this today. Give me some feedback through the comments link here.

– 1999 Integra (38K miles)
Is it too old? In five years, it will be 11 years old. Is it worth getting now? Any word on these cars? Mileage etc?

– 2000 Jetta (65K miles on it).
Too many miles? Will it be worth it in five years? Look elsewhere? Thoughts?

– 1998 Cabrio (40,500 miles)
Once again, too old? Is it too much of a wuss car? Is convertable worth it, or too much of a killer on the insurance? Any other thoughts?

Anyhoo, that’s where I’m at. Still looking. The loaner needs to go back in the next day or two. I’m going to rent a car for a week. So my goal is to find a new car by the end of next week. With no days off besides Friday, which is when we leave for the state softball tournament. So my goal is to find something and then be up early on one of the days and get it done.

Argh. This process sucks.

Argh!

July 12, 2005

Finding a car is a bunch of shit. Shit I tell ya!

See, here’s the thing. My engine went, well, is almost gone anyway. For those that have read my one post on the regular message board.

The local dealer says he can’t find what I want. Which basically starts at a 5-speed, and then I’m open from there. He pretty much dropped it back in my lap.

I found a car I like, 5-speed, private party for like 6,300 bucks. I’m now waiting for a call back to tell me if it’s available or not still. I’m really hoping so and then maybe I’ll have a chance to get up and look at it like Saturday. That’s the problem. I have to work the rest of the week and it’s an hour away.

Finding cars sucks.

Now then, I saw a couple. One was a decent price. A 2001 Kia Sportage. (It’s not the one I’m waiting to hear back on.) I’ve read too many crappy things about it, although it looks like a decent vehicle. And it’s 4WD.

Ahhh well, the life of finding a car. I’m sure I’ll be posting more here as my search picks up. And if I find a new car. Argh!

I guess the April Fool's joke is on us, Mother Nat I guess the April Fool's joke is on us, Mother Nature? Oh .. ha ha ha.

I also guess this is why hitting back roads to work is good -- you can stop and take a photo and not worry about anybody coming (usually)! Main roads around here are fine for now, but it's definitely quite picturesque on the lawns/trees etc.

I mean, if you hold a #Wrestlemania in an open stadium... eventually rain delays had to come, right? 🤣
