4000 dollars of repair for the truck. Multiple near fatal problems found

Shade tree mechanic partner can cut it maybe in half. That is something. Praise the Gods . It’s been a hell of a week

@NiveusLepus Even _saving_ $4000 is something my family could not accomplish. We'd be fucked if something that costs $500 comes up.

I hope you are able to recover from this quickly. That's a terrible hit to take, financially.

@NiveusLepus
I'm sorry you're going through this. It's rough, I know. I'm here if you'd like to talk.

@Vozy thanks brother. We’ve got it down to 3500. Grateful for that.

@NiveusLepus ouch!!! I guess you’re lucky that nothing bad happened while you were driving!

@NiveusLepus oh damn... Would it be better to give up on it & buy a used replacement?

@NiveusLepus good to hear, is there a chance to wait a bit longer, perhaps some other savings can be found?

@elmaxx water pump and oil system so not really. But we caught it so that’s something

@elmaxx in six months this will be a story. The dawn will come. The good news is we found it now before the engine died

@NiveusLepus @elmaxx oh dear. Water pumps and oil systems...spendy. Almost as bad as a blown head gasket.
