I've been away from the forum and CarPC's for a little while, and I'm checking in on everything, and updating what's happening with my car.
I have been torn between trying to trade in the taurus for something newer and more reliable or keep it and continue to fix what breaks with it.
I don't have the best credit around, and getting financing has been hard especially since I'm still flipped on the loan. (Ya, for this damn car, I owe $4k+!!) so, I'm going to have to fix it then.
Needed:
Y-Pipe with catalytic converters, 4x O2 sensors, brakes, tires, 150K mileage tune up.
The stupid y-pipe retails for $900 plus $250 labor, plus $70 per O2 sensor, and I need 4 of them (2 up and 2 down stream), but I can get them online for $300 for the cats, and about $45 for each sensor, so for everything I need to get the car running safely I'm looking at about $1200 if I change the brakes myself.
I'll be getting back into the fabrication of the screen, and I think I'll get a new Mobo and a fresh install of XP, just to get everything cleaned up.
My RR skins have been a little neglected as well, so those will be updated and refreshed and my website will be updated as well...
I'm still here, and I am still going to get this finished, but slower than even I thought it would be.
