Re: I Am Getting Rid Of My Car.

@ciao_bella  Thank you.  Both my daughter and son are great human beings.  They both work harding, compassionate, and kind.  I am very proud of both of them.

 

Both have been a Godsend especially since their Dad died.

Re: I Am Getting Rid Of My Car.

You mentioned not driving for 6 weeks after your TKR.  Is it your left or right knee?

It sounds like a smart, workable solution to me.

This sounds like a great arrangement! It’s great that you and your daughter get along so well and your good company for each other. You’re very lucky to have two good children and I’m sure you raised them well.

@mamaslittlepotato  Both kids, I say kids but they are adults, and I get along great.

 

Daughter and I have the same warped sense of humor.  DH used to just sit and shake his head at us.  DD and I would out with the same phrase or comment at the same exact time about something on TV.

Re: I Am Getting Rid Of My Car.

the old car that you are selling may be a simple fix......power steering fluid. that is generally why the p/s light comes on. generally, you can still drive your car, but it may take a bit more muscle to steer. take it to your mechanic so that he can check it out before you sell it. if it is a simple fix, then you should be able to get a decent price for it.

Re: I Am Getting Rid Of My Car.

@sunshine45  That was my first thought.  My son is coming this weekend and taking it to his house.  He and his 2 best friends are very mechanical.  He has another one that owns a garage.

 

I'm glad we are doing this but I hate all the bells and whistles on new cars.  I also had this no key thing.

Re: I Am Getting Rid Of My Car.

We tested an HRV because I only needed a small SUV. I liked it but ended up buying the smallest Chevy SUV (a Trax). It's already had two recall notices so maybe I should have gotten the HRV.

Re: I Am Getting Rid Of My Car.

I want to get rid of my car, too, and not get another. I hardly ever drive and if I need to get somewhere I can get a ride. I hate driving and everything that comes with car ownership...such a waste of money.
