I think every single car I've had has been on ongoing project so I've been in that state even since I've been driving it seems, so i know how you feel

Re: feeling burned out

Nope, never get that feeling.

Ditch the car.

take some of the parts you don't plan to reuse and break them in the most destructive manor you can come up with.

right now i'm burned out on questions. i've been reading af daily but haven't been answering much. taking a little brake before i snap and start telling people to sell their honda and buy something more up to their speed in geo metro country

hey i have an idea...sell nemo_wolf that prelude of yours. then you both will be happy

I've been feeling burned out on my car for awhile now. So I started looking for another one, test drove a few different cars. That made me realize how much every other car sucks compared to mine. Now I have a renewed interest in my car.

sounds just like me, everytime I fix one thing, another thing breaks, or is going out and is really annoying, like my tranny was going, then my axles went, got all that done, then it hesitates, then the temp starts rising up and down, then i blow my head gasket, ive replaced about everything i can think of under the hood, when the hell am I going to just buy a new car?


i think it's 'cause I love paying $2000 for a car that can spank $20,000 cars

I might get sick and tired of the rebuilding of my Civic, if I didn't hate my Camaro soooo much.
But that hatred for the Camaro is like motivation for finishing the Civic and selling the Camaro.

But yeah... take a break... or try driving a car you really don't like...
