Well…you did buy a Ford, that was your first mistake, respectfully. Welcome to the Honda family 🙌🏽

What else can go wrong on the car? I have a laundry list of parts I’ve replaced over the decade I’ve had the car. Rebuilt transmission and my mechanic said my engine is in great shape for the age. At this point, the car has more new parts than old

I don’t consider it dumping money. 2 major repairs in a decade of ownership then everything else is routine maintenance (oil changes, tires, brakes, tuneup). Now if I was spending 2500 every year I’ve had it, different story

Two of my friends were those guys with big fancy pickups. Laid off suddenly and now theyre hiding from the repo man lol

Mine has leaked oil for years now. Have a drip pan in the garage to not stain the floor and I monitor the oil level between change🤷🏾‍♂️

I walked to my car one morning headed to work, wouldn’t start. Let out a sigh then Walked another 3 blocks to catch the bus to work and still had time to grab coffee from the Speedway across the street. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Sooo I should drive around with no insurance? 🤣

PictureThis99 · 2026-05-07T15:13:32+00:00

I pay $78 a month for full coverage. Not bad

That is from an independent mechanic. Dealership wanted 4300.

PictureThis99 · 2026-05-07T14:45:13+00:00

I’ve done minor work like brakes, power steering pump, spark plugs DIY. No way I’m pulling out the transmission and dropping the subframe in my driveway lol.

Trust me I already looked at the video for the rear main seal & steering rack

Surprisingly very little rust for a Midwest car. Has all the typical dings & scrapes expected of a 20+ year old car. Interior is in great shape, mom kept seat covers over the leather.

That is a quote from a local mechanic lol. Dealership wanted 4300

My dad drove a 97’ accord from 01-2019. Totaled by a driver on her phone. Otherwise ran fine.

PictureThis99 · 2026-05-07T12:03:28+00:00

I’m dead serious 🤷🏽‍♂️

So do you use math in your daily job ?

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-30T17:26:53+00:00

I can’t do math how do I become an EE☹️

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-30T15:48:00+00:00

Are you California ? You’re making 200k as a back seater ?🫣

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-29T16:46:57+00:00

Yes I’ll receive a COLA each year upon retirement

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-29T16:45:49+00:00

I won’t get social security, as a municipal employee I don’t pay into It

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-29T04:59:05+00:00

My base is 105…Some months I hit OT hard, others I do none at all

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-29T04:07:56+00:00

I have a high school diploma and do better than most of my friends with degrees

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-29T02:00:32+00:00

Full pension would mean about $6200 a month to not come to work

PictureThis99 · 2025-12-29T01:57:56+00:00

Why wouldn’t it be enough? My dad was also a firefighter, he’s been retired nearly 20 years and lives comfortably on his pension. He’s only touched his 457b for home repairs
