My car hates me
2 weeks ago i had to replace my radiator because it cracked from heating or expanding, but most likely because i had to much water in it when the temperature dropped into the teens. About a week ago i lost the center cap to my front passenger rim and last night i went to drive home from stockton and the tire was dead flat. Naturally i didnt have my donut with me and i dont think i want to drive it all the way down the AC expressway with a donut. Anyone else car starting to became a pain recentl?

My beater sprung a leak in the power steering cooling line on Friday, and I had to take 1/2 the bleepin' front end off to get it out. Hopefully the new one will be here today.

Yeah, I had a weatherstripping leak on my passenger's door and a cracked windshield. Hopefully it's all good now; we got a lot of rain last night and it looks fine.

Ever since I swapped out the front bumper cover, the car wont start and the headlights wont pop up (but the lamps come on). Can't figure that one out since nose swap has nothing to do with the electrical system.
