"A money pit from hell"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Starter went out 215k taking the alternater and battery as well.

Cvjoint (both sides) 215k.

Water pump 214k.

Transmission slipping 210k -changed filter and fluid, only got worst

now it won't change gears at all!

Window drv sd won't work never did with me anyway.

Brake calipers and master cylinder messed up 215k.

Harmonic balancer replaced 215k.

General comments?

Its like driving a land yacht.

I like driving it its like driving my couch.

Overall engine its reliable.

Overall other stuff its definetly a money pit.

Fix one thing drive it 2 days and something else breaks.

I guess its ready for the front yard as a yard ornament.

If I junk it the seat goes in the house as my couch.

Really what do you expect at 215K..Most of those problems occur around 150,000 K.
