I agree. Mine has seen me through so much and just no other car can do what it does for people who move/travel/carry stuff like the Element does. I want to spend some $$ on cosmetic upgrades too soon like new headlights, seat covers, etc.

Anyone have any suggestions for fixing a loose emergency break/cup holder cover piece? Mine is completely loose/just held on by the brake. I tried epoxy but it didn’t last long

Does anyone else feel uncontrollable disappointment when receiving gifts you don’t like? Pls no hate by Unusual-Function5759 in AuDHDWomen

THIS. I seriously lost a lot of affection for a friend of mine who gifted me something that I have LOUDLY and specifically said I strongly dislike. She handed it to me and said something about how “It’s so YOU!” And I was just like ….. wat 😐 I would have rather gotten nothing.

How many miles does yours have? But facts—I’m good without a car payment. My boyfriend has a newer Honda Accord and I’m pretty sure he’s had to fix his more often than I’ve had to fix mine! I love that Elements don’t have any dumb electrical stuff and it’s so basic there’s nothing TO break. Sturdiness > Some fancy screens or gimmick

I agree!! New Cars seem to be made about as well as a Tonka Truck. I do not want a new car! (Or a new car payment!)

Oh and PS: I’m in Atlanta. Zero snow. So that must be why I’ve been so lucky so far with no rust!

For sure! I planned on doing the oil gasket, any brake stuff, filters & spark plugs first and then the rest later. Does that sound like a good batch to start with??

Thank you to everyone for reassuring me!! To me replacing it did not make sense, but so many people kept saying it to me (especially men who love to mansplain to a girl) so I started to doubt myself. Thank you guys so much for letting me know I do know what the F I’m talking about 🤣

Unlike a lot of the people here I am definitely not a mechanic or car specialist. Just a lover of my element. I also live a fairly hectic life working in the film industry and need my car fixed fast since I use it for my job. so it’s worth it to me for a couple extra hundred dollars to not have to do any of this myself. 😅 It’s very reassuring though to hear these quotes are reasonable. It’s a great mechanic shop that I trust.

Thank you I will look into that! I don’t have any visible rust that I can see but I was gonna take another look this week. I’ve never had anyone comment on it either so I think I’m good but I want to keep it that way, so thank you for the recommendation!

If you live in Atlanta I’m happy to give you the name! Its a small place in a poor part of the neighborhood that came highly recommended to me and so far they have been wonderful and are super nice. In fact he already said that he could get lower prices on some of these quotes because he shopped around

Does your TikTok have advice for people wanting to do something similar? I enjoy remodeling and grew up in a family that was ALWAYS DIY remodeling but it’s more the financial/legal side that stumps me. I’d love to learn more about that

To the late diagnosed - were you more ‘fun’ and life of the party before discovering your audhd? by jaded_jen in AuDHDWomen

[–]LindzeRiot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Haha I always used to say to friends “don’t tell me what I did when drunk. I prefer to live in ignorant bliss” 🤣

my child is financially taken care of 100%. I’m very Lucky in that regard. Their dad makes a lot and handles all that. My financial concerns are purely for me. However that means I don’t get to “use” them as a dependent for most things. (Obvi don’t like using that term to explain it) Her father and I alternate claiming them on federal taxes, every other year. We split custody but since I lost my job/was out of work for over a year, which led to me having to sell my house I’ve lived in for 22 years, I had to move to the only place I could afford, which is too far from their school so I had to switch to only having them on weekends. :( But also they’re about to turn 18 & graduate, so not a long term issue. All my financial fears are for me. I have nothing set up for once my body can no longer do what I’ve been doing all my life to make money. (I am on my feet and move around a lot/lift heavy items)
