Talk about shit luck w/ my car lately...


Luckilly nothing major, just little annoyances.

Couple months ago my car ate the power steering / water pump belt.... no biggie.... other than the fact it ate it cuz it needed 500 bucks worth of brackets & belt tensioners

a few weeks ago I was entering the parking garage at work... I was behind an SUV & partially blocking the exit.... so when a car came out of the exit I moved forward to get out of their way... whack, right into the back of the SUV Luckily they chose not to file a claim.

Last week i'm on a side street waiting to turn left onto a main road... as soon as you turn left there's a light. The light turns yellow, a car pulls up to the light & stops as it turns red, I pull out & some douche going the other way blows the red light.... I had to gas it across his lane of traffic to avoid getting t-boned by this douche & I ended up rear ending the car stopped at the red light. I put a big hole in the guy's bumper but he didn't give a rats ass for some strange reason... maybe it was stolen or he didn't have a license or insurance.... whatever, I don't care about his car, but i did crack my blinker, put a scrape/dent in the hood & another dent/scrape in the fender

Now this morning.... I spent the night at my girl's place & the phone starts ringing at 6:30am.... turns out her brother (the one she lives with) was walking out of the driveway on his motorcycle, hit the pothole at the end of the driveway, foot slipped on the wet grass & now he's pinned between his bike & the hood of my car. Luckilly he wasn't hurt and his bike (very nice r1200c) wasn't badly damaged. Only scrape on the bike was on the lever where it dug into the hood of my car Whatever... it's only a car.

Yeah... awesome luck lately. Figured I'd post about it & make some of you feel better about yourselves.

Thank God for Tony's Track Days. Can't wait till the 28th.... "WOOOSAAAAAHHHHHHH"

I was just about to say, I see newgixxerchick has been looking at this thread for quite some time... I wonder if she's thinking of something clever to say like "Sounds like your name should be newbimmerdude!!!! ..... oh wait, that's an insult to me, too"

I'm not a big fan of "comebacks" but I think thats the weakest one I've ever heard.

You can do better than that.

Sounds familiar, since March, I've replaced:

tie rod ends
tie rods
ball joints
front brakes (pads, rotors)
all shocks
anti-sway clips
all 4 O2 sensors (3 times)
all fuel injectors
all axle seals

and now my electric fan has stopped working.

So Pete, I feel your pain, but does your vehicle have 150K on it?

I went a little suspension crazy, since I got a lot back in tax refunds this year.

I'm hoping to keep my Jeep alive for another 100K. I hate car payments.
