When I was fighting with my 911 running issues I did stop to think what a first world problem it was. My toy was not running right but it was at home safe in my garage and the cost to buy some parts was in no way going to affect my lifestyle or choices on which restaurant I am going to to visit or other gizmo I want to buy. I have no debt so it was just something else wanted to spend my money on. I am a lucky man.
Saturn Ion with 250k miles. Sludge maybe, but he has had coolant issues in the past.
