    It troubles me that IJAG only drives a 2000 Sentra. :D

    Apparently she doesn't. She just waits for it to be fixed.

    Agreed. Shouldn't she be drivin an Amurican car -- or at least a Toyota?

    I just looked on the AllData car-repair database, which lists a new alternator for 2000 Nissan's at $260. You can probably find a used one for much cheaper.

    Maybe even one that works, too!

    I just IMd a friend who works as a mechanic and he said $250 tops.

    Slappy, no because I don't take care of my car.

    he said the part was $231. so it's two hours of labor.


    and fuck you, Mizzou. my daddy bought it.

    What, one of Tony Stewart's pit-rowers can't fix it for you?

    I'm sort of surprised she drives ... figured she'd just stay in the house all day with the cats when not on the road. I can really see IJAG as a bus girl. ;)

    (Oh, and sounds like it's a dealer. Always, always more and always, always takes 3 times as long as a non-dealer to make repairs or even change the freaking oil/air filter. So that's your extra is the labor. I'd say shop around, but tough to move the car around, what with no alternator and all.)

    "She's a bus girl" would be a pretty cool song title.

    Who goes to the dealer with an 8-year-old car?
