My rear brakes are starting to get to that point. $600.00 at at least

Tires at 100k is obout $1000.00

Even though I change the oil regularly and do all of the other maintenance stuff, I'm starting to lose oil.

My emergency brake cable snapped the other day. That's going to be about 4 to 5 bills unless I do it myself.

I'm on my third windshield.

If I hadn't been taking care of it, this would be something that I deserve.

As it stands, I'm probably not going to get much for a trade in.

Because of the current economy I don't want to spend a ton on a car, probably in the 20 to 22 k range.

I'm kind of sad because I finished paying for the jeep last year and its nice not making payments.

But the mechanic said that if you want to be a dodge guy you have to reconcile that the suspensions don't last and they tend to have problems as they get older and they're expensive to maintain.
No problems with the electrical? I'd consider yourself lucky.

What do you figure it's worth right now?
