I may not have 2 or 3 years.
Her 2008 Hyundai sonata is at the hyundai shop for the transmission acting up and TPMS sensors, I may have wasted around $280 replacing them all this summer with after market ones.
Then I still have an undiagnosed serious engine misfire in the cold on this car and winter is right around the corner.

I would be willing to consider pip since I could get a 3yr old lease turn in today. Only disadvantage is I wouldn't be able to pay cash for it all right at this moment.
