  • You can often get a Pre Purchase Inspection (PPI) for about $200 from a mechanic that will tell you everything in depth about the health of a car before you actually buy it.

    Way too many people out here purchasing cars and then bringing it to a mechanic only to realize they’ve been ripped off or bought an expensive repair bill.

    You should do it with any used car you have a strong intention to buy whether it is a private sale or from a lot.

    Usually lots will want to negotiate the price first because any used car will have some wear and tear.

    But the point is that you’ll know for sure it there’s any critical issues with the vehicle. If it’s a lemon, you can say no and walk away. Don’t think of it as losing $200, think of it as saving several thousand on a broken car.



  • US History (College and any sane public school) actually does do a good job of describing all the crazy stuff the country has pulled against people.

    It just conveniently skips explaining anything global in the past 40-50 years that has a direct effect on lots of things happening today.

    Stuff like SEATO, Israel, how OPEC was neutralized, Iraq, Iran, KSA, Israel again, Afghanistan, 9/11, etc.
