Cat = more or less okay, car = less okay.
Feb. 14th, 2005 11:39 amTook the cat to the vet and got an ultrasound of her heart for Valentine's day. Everything looks fine, and we're starting her on the thyroid medication.
On the other hand, the garage called back. Ouch.
Apparently, there's this thing called a "final bearing" which allows wheels to turn at different speeds. It more-or-less exploded and wiped out the transmission.
We're looking at something like $3,500 in repairs. The car probably IS worth repairing at that price, though. And the people that rebuild transmissions for them offer a 3 year, 30,000 mile warranty on their work. So we're probably going to go ahead and do this.
Any thoughts on this, folks?
