I didn't want to put any money into the Intrepid, so I bought another car. I was toying with the idea of removing the airbags and premium sound system and selling them on ebay and then junking the car. Do you thing I might get more money doing that rather than selling it?
169,000 miles. Current list of things that need fixin'.

- Old timing belt.
- Old water pump.
- New front brakes needed.
- Old tires.
- OLd battery.
- Fuel gauge reads way too optimistically (I have to keep track of my miles between fills).
- Paint keeps flaking off roof.
- Clear coat on the black plastic c-pillar covers has deteriorated (again!)
- I'm beginning to get that inner tie rod bushing clunk again.
- Windshield old and pitted.
- Drivers side seat adjustment (back/forward slide) is broken (I hear dealer will fix for free).
