I freakin' hate my car. My commute today: DH needed the good car (normally he works from home so this isn't much of an issue) so my choices were to take the unreliable car or ride my bike. I've been commuting by bike a lot recently, but we didn't realize our conflict for today until after I had already gotten in an early morning run, and there are thunderstorms predicted for this afternoon, so I figured I'd take the unreliable car. Generally if it's going to have problems it'll be right at the start (or the non-start as the case may be). But it started up just fine and got me about 9 miles along on my commute before it started lurching and stalling. I eventually got it off the highway and parked it in a convenience store lot and walked the last 2.5 miles to work. Between the drive, the time spent starting and stopping and lurching, and the walk, I could have biked the route a lot faster.

I'm calling a vehicle donation place and getting rid of that car today.
