17 threads since May, boy we don't care much about cars

and it goes to show how narrow the focus is on DU. How sad.

1. I'd send ElderGreenKid in here and this place would be hopping, but he's a

little young to be chatting on the 'net with strangers. (He is obsessed with cars. Real cars. Matchbox and hot wheel cars. Models. He faithfully reads the VIP and NAPA catalogs from cover to cover and back again.)

2. I have about 160K on my ZX2, runnin' fine (for now) except for a fuse (?)

affecting the heater fan. It's paid for, so I'm kinda spoiled by not having a car payment.

What can I expect to come along in about a year, something that's Green AND affordable for a somewhat under-paid lady "of a certain age"?

3. If the fuse keeps blowing for the heater fan

It's a good indication that the heater fan motor needs replacing.

When they get old, they draw more power than the fuse can handle.

(I know PEOPLE like that!)

4. This is the first time. I have owned it for 10 years.

It ran me maybe 1K+ a year in reparis for a while, but it's been good this year and it IS paid for.

I'll have my guy look at that fan motor when I take it in.
