Dear Blog,
I need to let out my frustration somehow besides screaming from the top of my lungs at work! It all started this morning. Jeff drove my car to work and as he was driving home, the battery light on the dash kept blinking so he was thinking, oh great here we go again, another thing wrong with Brits car! So he got home and popped the hood and long and behold the serpentine belt that we had replaced only 2 months ago had busted and melted rubber all inside the engine. So were thinking sweet, it's only going to be $60 this time to fix the monthly problems we have with this stupid thing. Jeff called my Dad, my dad helped diagnose the problem as best he could over the phone and what he came up with is the waterpump went out which caused the serpentine belt to seize up so we not only have to replace a $60 belt but we also have to get the waterpump fixed ($600)! AHHHHH! Seriously, I hate VW's! If it's not one problem one month, the next month it's something different. So....the car is not able to be driven so we had to call a tow company and have them come tow the thing up to our mechanic in Lehi. I NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, EVER would recommend a Volkswagen to ANYONE, unless you have money to get it fixed every month!!!! Woooohhhh, I feel a little better now:)

I am glad you feel better after writing. Whenever you get rid of your car, we should have a celebration. Seriously.It's making me mad just reading your post. I HATE car problems.
Grrrrrrrr cars that suck when you already have no money, suck even WORSE!! Jeff and I totally know (I think everyone who's poor knows) B/C then it's the question, "well, if we sell IT, and buy some other beater that we can afford, then we're just buying all of IT'S problems" What to do... hang in there...SO nice to vent.
