Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

That's not carnage. Don't be a tease.

Your son's car is pretty cool, though. (I hope he wasn't hurt)

Blew the top ball joint. Bone head son continued to drive car for about 3 miles claiming he knew nothing was wrong. Has fessed up since.

Sprayed with glass and real sad. Bought the car himself. 3K and it only had 27k miles. Was a really clean car.

My son's first vehicle was a cherry little black truck. A couple years old, but really nice. It was "him." Got totalled three days after he got it. :(

He got some bumps and bruises, but we felt really bad for him. His next car was crap.

My daughter asked me to listen to her car once, so we took a drive. Every time she hit the brakes it made a terrible grinding sound, and she had to really stomp on it to get the car to slow down. I asked how long it had been doing that. "I dunno, a few weeks."

Had to replace the entire front brake system. Rotors, calipers, everything.

Freakin' kids.

Oh, then her next two cars got rear ended. One was totalled.

And my favorite. Front tires from my Grand Prix. Tires from the outside looked great for 80k miles on them. Took them off to put on some new pads and this is what the inside of the tires looked like.

How about a hand made water pump gasket. I'm cheap. :) (Actually they didn't have any.)

Good for another 20K miles. Don't be a puss.
