After my appointment I drove another 7 miles uphill until I reached peak Pinetop-Lakeside, and 12 miles home without a problem. There was a little bit of a smell at one point, but I never noticed my exhaust.

I stopped at the last parking lot before I got home. It isn't flat, my car was going up a gentle hill, and my transmission fluid read a little low.

I turned around and it still read low, but not nearly as much.

I asked my sister, who is off this week, if she and her husband, who is unemployed, would look at a low-mileage Camry. She said she could, but didn't, and it sold.

She asked me if I wanted to look at a high-mileage Acura in her town and I responded "No more than I want to look at this high-mileage Accord an hour from me."

She wants me to look at the high-mileage Accord an hour from me.

Someone posted a Camry with 72,800 miles and she responded "That would be awesome."

That's it? She's not going to help out her brother, who desperately needs a reliable car?
