>they were around 300€ each

Fuck shit at Walmart is $300 each, shit probably works but I just can't. No, everything is $1200 America pricing. So when you look at your paycheck, x4 and that's what you need for #american_life

It's a gaddamn shame, but I plan to die eventually and then I don't have to worry about it.

>im more worried about the yearly car inspection.

When you're me: (3x vehicles, 3x problems) at least 95% of the time I fix it myself. I just paid $15 for a part that the shop wanted me to pay $500 to replace, nope, not if I can get to it without dropping the engine, no thanks.

>mechanic hours have become crazily expensive

I take sick leave and then do it myself. No, I'm not paying $120-280/hr for them to do mundane shit I can easily do myself like oil changes and maintenance. Head-gasket I can't do without a lot of effort, way too much effort for me with these two jobs, but f me it's expensive.

>i cant do it myself and i know nobody whod do it for me
