(OK, Morrissey said that Everyday is Like Sunday, but today’s not Sunday).
I have been so frigging busy this week. New Boss’s Toady was out of the office all week (yippeee!) so I helped New Boss with a lot of her work, to the point where I input all of the invoices that our restaurants sent in so far. I left work at 1 Friday to make a 2:30 dentist’s appointment (so far, I get to keep my teeth!) and 6:00 doctor’s appointment (current topic of discussion: Why do I hate Toady? So far all I can come up with is “She likes country music” and “She’s too organized” D, help me out – why else I do dislike Toady?).
Today first thing was the Nissan dealership for an oil change. But – yippee! – that’s not all! I need new rear brake pads, new tires and something called a fuel induction service. I’m taking it in again next Saturday to get all of that done. I guess I can just hand over my entire paycheck. The tires are 90% of the cost, but since we’ve put over 40k miles on it in less than 2 years, Gene and I both feel it’s important to maintain the car well. (We looked at a car for him a few weeks ago and have decided instead to keep our money and thank our lucky stars that we don’t need a second car right now).
Next, Scooby went to the vet’s office for his annual checkup. He’s in great shape. And now he’s sleeping on my feet, keeping them warm. All of which is going to really tick him off in a minute because I need to get up and go to the grocery store.
Why do you need new tires at only 40k miles?? that seems so damn early… someone else had their car for over 75k miles and it was their first time getting new tires.
Other people have driven their vehicle to and from and all across america since 2004, almost close to 75k miles, and haven’t needed new tires yet.
Are they trying to scam you?? Or are your tires really in that bad of shape?
My bad…sorry
I was just informed of replacing 2 tires at 50k miles.
