  • You can usually find step by step instructions for fixing most cars. My library has a subscription to Chilton online, so I can use it from home and look at repair procedures and wiring diagrams. Just use forums and YouTube to fill in the gaps. I’ve even diagnosed a car from Amazon reviews since I suspected a certain part was bad and looked at reviews that said the exact symptoms.








  • Me who started driving in 2001 and then saw gas prices double before I was out of hs. Then the great recession happened when I finally got out on my own and gas was even more expensive than it is now and companies had started raising prices like crazy with the excuse that fuel prices were high. It’s also when shrinkflation started happening. Good jobs were also unobtainable because people postponed retirement for years after the recession. I didn’t get anything decent until around 10 years ago, and now I feel like I’m back where I was when I was 21 working at McDonald’s.
