OK i've had blazer now for like almost 2yrs. The first week i had i got two speeding tickets, third week (day after tinting windows) got a ticket for window tint. 6th month a truck side-swiped it setting in my front yard. Little Break, then the air conditioning went out, the fuel pump, and then a major tune-up that cost $700. Before X-mas a guy ran into to back of me. AND THEN three days ago my girl friend woke me up to tell that my truck has been hit AGAIN. Pushing it 20ft from it's parking spot, and like 5ft from the front door. Of course the f&%ker didn't stop, and do to the other bad **** i don't have full cover on my truck anymore. So i'm stuck trying to find the money to fiw $3000 worth of damage. Anyone want my LUCK????????????????????

Well since everybody here is having bad days, I'll fill ya in on mine.
A few months ago (May '02), I took my dodge van off the road due to a power steering gearbox leak. In the meantime, I started driving a company van. After visiting a junkyard to get another gearbox for my van, I found out it was the wrong one. I went ahead and bought a new gearbox from NAPA, installed it, and found out that my pitman arm on the old gearbox was welded on. I have been searching every since for a pitman arm (Jax, Fl sux for stuff like that). About 2 weeks after I started driving the company van, I got ran off the road while doing 45mph. The result of that was I ended up totalling the van (rode the guard rail for aprox 100ft.). To top it off, when the cop came, I found out my license was suspended for Financial responsibility (non payment of insurance). I had been paying the insurance, but the company had filed that I wasn't, and I could not find the reciepts. So I was screwed. This ended up costing me close to a grand to straighten everything out. I went to court, after getting insurance at another company. The judge asked me if I renewed my driver's license. I said no. He asked why not. I told him that I was told I couldn't until I came to court.. He shook his head no, told me the fine and said get my license back. I still can't drive a company vehicle because of all this and I didnt have any witnesses. I also walked around with a fractured rib for a week without realizing it (job sent me to workmans comp exam thing).
but everything is straightened out. I now have my license, bought a car, still have the van, get paid travel pay from my company (30 cents a mile). And I take new employees for test drive to see if they can drive the vehicles (mostly 15 passenger vans).. hehge, I can drive them, but I test people, wierd.
