Well, things have shifted (that’s a pun). On the one hand, I’m still grateful to the Lord for His provision. On the other hand, the full price of the service turned out to be up near the limit of our credit. We are looking at a repair cost of about $3500 to fix the transmission (thus, the pun). In the context of what we can know about the reputation of this particular car model, it’s probably the one thing that was always most likely to fail. Other major components tend to serve far longer without trouble.
This turns into a prayer request that we are able to pay off this debt without too much stress. The only plausible alternative was to end up in hock for the rest of our lives with a new car; they made a strong offer for trade-in. We aren’t inclined to go that route.
