I need my car though... Im in the middle of Golf season and I have to transport me and my sister to and from school everyday... So I cant just start taking things apart.... I need transportation... And the guy who is sposed to put the engine in lives like an hour away... So I need to drive my car down there too....

Like I said, things arent looking good, and with the history my car has had to break down, I just dont trust that timing belt belt because as far as I know it is still the original one...

lol naa my dad sold his mercedes... It was a great looking car and got great comments... But with his job it requires him to be on the road alot and do lots of driving and even though the mercedes did get like 30 mpg it took premium gas (which at the time was like $3.50) and he could only get his tires to last like 20,000 miles, and since he put 184,000 miles on that car in 4 years.... thats a lot of gas, tires, and driving

It would be a tax write off but he is self employed so he pays for everything

which means it is a tax write-off. a business can get those deductions. for self employed...unless his business is behind the books.

As long as he has a small business license [usually as cheap as $200], if he is on 'work trips' EVERY LITTLE F*CKING THING IS A TAX WRITE OFF! If he has to PAY $0.10 to use a public restroom [for all those who have played Roller Coaster Tycoon 2], that FLUSH is a write off. If he eats, write off. Hotel rooms, write off. He needs to take a tax course when he is able to [H&R Block offer them] and see how much money he is wasting by not itemizing his taxes.

JBI, remember how i was talking about PPL or MLM? Anything you buy that is for a company reason is a write off. All you have to do is keep the reciepts.

Hell, even Scratch Off Lotto tickets are deductible. As long as the money goes to the state for education reasons, it's a 'charitble contribution'.

SO DON'T THROW THEM AWAY!

Dads got plenty of money, he just was tired of spending it on his car, he also didnt like have to pay 1000 dollars for his anual 10,000m mile checkup... He could afford it, he just didnt want to have to pay it....
