I need help sabotaging MY car!
Help! With 236,000 + miles on it, my 98 Ford Escort Wagon refuses to die! Any ideas how I can really discreetly sabotage my own car so my husband will give in and buy a new one? He's this close to getting that new car, but this little Escort stills runs well, so he needs a "little help" if you know what I mean. The tinkering needs to be safe (kids and I still use this car daily, but I can certainly "plan" ahead) and hopefully not obvious. He is not a mechanic, but he knows how a car runs and it's common problems. There's got to be something discreet I can do to mess up the engine a little?!

Re: I need help sabotaging MY car!
Save some money and buy the car you want. Use this car as a trade in. Don't break perfectly good automobiles when you do not even understand the principles and mechanics it operates on enough to intentionally insert a fault..

Re: I need help sabotaging MY car!
If I found out my wife sabotaged a good reliable automobile to try to con me into buying a new car, I would have her in divorce court the next day. Either that or give her an annual bus pass for the family. Certainly no new car! No man deserves a pathological coniver like that. Be thankful you have a nice husband, a family and reliable transportation. You could lose it all real quickly if you're not careful.

Re: I need help sabotaging MY car!
Yeah, you're right. Desperate times call for desperate measures, but you're aboslutley right. Will continue to let the car die of "natural causes". Do they have "hospice care" for automobiles?
