Ok, my car started giving me problems last summer. When one problem gets fixed another one pops up. Right now it's in the shop because it tends to stall when I stop at a stop light, sign, or slow down in a parking lot, but absolutly no problems when driving. The car is 10 years old, but it doesn't even have 100,000 miles on it yet. It is expensive to fix a cadilac, so we are considering cleaning it up and selling it and getting something more practical. I purchased the car because of mom/grandma (when she was still alive) because of my taking her places and to the doctors. We used to take her to the movies twice a month and out to lunch a couple times a month. She liked to go shopping and just go driving, and she loved the car. She was unable to drive the last 2 years of her life, and really would get depressed staying home all the time, so I had to have something that was easy for her to get in and out of. My mini van was not easy for her.
Since we are basically down to 2 of us most of the time, a smaller car would be nice and much more economical. Right now I can use Elizabeth's car, since she can't have it in San Francisco, and probably would want an automatic instead of a stick. And while Keith is still living at home, he is busy with school and his friends. He also is looking for work again as his job as a park aid just ended last weekend.
Plus, with Elizabeth being away for college, we are helping her with some of her expenses like food money and a little spending money - so I don't want to be spending all my money on car repairs all the time.
