Yesterday, I driving on my merry way to work when my car started to shake violently. It was equivalent to what a earthquake might feel like, though i've never experienced an earthquake before (I live in what can be sunny Orlando, Florida), so I'll have my memories of the old Universal Studios attraction, Earthquake, to help describe the shake of my car while I was driving it on a busy highway.
Well, as the shaking was going on, my engine service light came on, and I was like fuck, now I need to call in for the day at work. There was no way I was driving that car the rest of the way. So i called my insurance company for road side service. The tow truck came, and got my car. The Tires Plus garage I trust with my life was closed for the day, but they went ahead with the paperwork and put my car into the garage for the night. I was hoping and praying that it was just some sort of fucked up hose that was an easy fix.
Weeelllllllll
I got a call this morning as I was having breakfast at Cracker Barrel with a friend from the Tires Plus, saying that there wasn't enough pressure coming into the cylinder valve because....
Some fucking idiot put sugar into my gas tank, which was making things carmalized. What was estimated for the cost of repair for the entire thing was around $3,800
Why the hell would someone do that??? My mom and I aren't doing so hot financially. I mean, fuck, Im a 24 year old recent college graduate who is doing an unpaid career internship. I cannot afford this shit. And with how much it has to be repaired, I might as well get a new car, but oh wait, I DONT HAVE THE MONEY FOR THAT EITHER
Dude, seriously, fuck people. I'm pissed right now. I'm currently waiting to hear from my insurance company to see what they cover in vandalism.
