Help finding my son a new car
My sons 2000 Ford Explorer front wheel completely froze up and destroyed the brakes and there is a problem with the rear axle too. Repair cost is over $1000 and I'm not paying that. Time to look at a new car for him.

Who were the resident dealers on this site again?

Here are the cars he is looking at. Any opinions would be great as I have had it with car shopping these last few years.

Find yourself a hungry ass salesman. They'll do whatever you want.

I don't get how this ever started. You take away 1 of the two days that the vast majority of your customers have off?
This. I'm friends with a salesman, and when he started he was absolutely furious they were closing for Labor Day. So he put his card on all the windshield wipers of every car in the lot. Sold 4 cars that day. In podunk ass Kansas.

Hope it works out. If it doesn't last, at least he doesn't owe money on it. Or if he does, it's not $10 Grand.

And he drove it into a curb tearing up his wheel.

I'm beside myself right now

Starting to see my limit on how far I'm willing to stick my neck out to help him at this point.

They change when daddy's pocketbook snaps shut and they have to deal with the irresponsible issues they create. My son is learning that also .

Right now it is sounding as if the repair may be more than the car is worth. He only had it for two ****ing months.

don't know for sure yet. The body shop guy hasn't looked at it. Mechanic said it will require some welding though. He didn't sound to positive about recovery.

I haven't even seen it yet. Not sure I want to.

He said that he was going straight at 45mph on a 40mph road, started to hydroplane and went into the curb. I have a feeling that he actually took a turn too fast on a wet road and lost control. The way the mechanic describes it it sounds way more extensive than what my son is telling me.
