I'm so annoyed

My truck failed the NYS safety inspection AGAIN (2nd year in a row) because of a leaky rear axle seal. The SAME rear axle seal that went bad last year. Guess what this means! Yup. Something else is wrong that's causing the seals to wear and leak. Bent axle? I really don't know, and from the sounds of it, I'm going to have to go through Ford to get a new one. oh joy!

ARG

I'm so freaking irritated by this right now, I'm half tempted to pay a mechanic to do it for me simply because I don't want to deal with it, but I don't trust mechanics.

I know how you feel the only mechanic I trust is my ex bf as funny as that sounds but he cuts me a rate so I guess being an ex comes in handy ;) he barely charges me $20 to change my oil :)

I have a mechanic I trust, but he's in Avon, and I'm just not willing to drive all the way out there (especially now with no inspection sticker) to have work done. I have yet to find a good mechanic where we live now.
