Well, bugger.

Y'know how I said the car was apparently in great mechanical shape? Tuesday, as I was driving in to work, the car started jerking a bit while driving. Kind of like a horse that can't stay still. We took it back in and the diagnosis was "injector misfires". It's going to be $1000 because they have to pull the entire engine out to get at them. The mechanic has been trustworthy in the past so we believe that he's not marking us up.

But plans for getting a new car have accelerated. (You see what I did there.)

Ugh. Nobody expects the Inquisition!

Hopefully after this repair, you'll get at least a few more years out of it.
