So I decided to go for cheap when I bought my last new car and man am I paying for it! I have already paid half the cost of the car in repairs. The only consolation is that I have found these guys at Hagin's Automotive and they are great. They are not cheap but their service isn't either. They are thorough and willing to work with me so that I can afford the repairs to my lemon of a car. I did take a lot of flack from my boyfriend for paying so much for an oil pan gasket replacement which he claimed was easy and he could do, but if I had waited for him to do it, I would still be waiting. PS. Thank you so much for the driver who picked me up (and my laundry!) when the repairs took longer than we expected.
