Windshield is a main structural component. Replacing it is like bending the frame, and then trying to bend it back. It's never...just...right. So yeah, I finally came to terms with the fact that this is going to be the car I forever hate and ramp over curbs and in general just don't give a **** about because it was ruined from nearly day 1, anyway. Sucks, as I was hoping to enjoy owning this thing. Mice and men and all that. Now I'm going to be the guy throwing his keys across the hood and hitting **** in the street for sport in a "nice" car because he hates the thing, lol. Sorry, just trying to find some humor in getting rid of a car that was in great shape and ending up with a junker by a twist of fate. *or* Just set it up on blocks, pay it down, take the hit, sell it in a year, forget the whole nightmare and try not to think about the $10K in depreciation. There will be other cool toys, I am sure. Either way, it sucks, and I feel cheated out of what I was hoping would be an enjoyable ownership. I can see now this windshield thing will just end badly no-matter what most likely. One of those things that make you just HATE a car, like a rattle that won't go away.

If it is whistling/leaking/trim pieces constantly peeling up in hot sun/roof rusting/whatever/etc. it might as well be like the frame is bent. That will drive me insane and make the car an annoyance. I don't need this car. It does nothing my daily driver doesn't do that I NEED. It's a toy. Pure and simple. A luxury item. A device I own because of the pure hell of it. Something that used to make me smile when I took it out and played with it. When it ceases to do that, it ceases to have any value to me. It's not like it's my only car and it gets me to and from anything. When I drive it, I'm usually not going anywhere, just tooling around enjoying it. If I can't enjoy it, I'll probably just put it up on blocks and forget about it until the residual is greater than the owed, dump it, and find another toy.

Talk about worrying if everything will work like new after the visit, just wait until you schedule your first colonoscopy ![]() Sounds like you have a great place with really good people. You really can't ask for more than that.
