To sell or not to sell... Posted by Saaby Texan (more from Saaby Texan) on Thu, 10 Feb 2005 10:38:27

Hello everyone-- We have a 96 9000CS. I love the car and we have had it for about two years now. The problem is that my wife is pressing me to sell it. It seems that even small things that go wrong are very costly. The last straw was that it recently started idleling roughly and it seems like windshield wiper fluid or other fluid leaks on to the floor on the driver's side. I want to take it to the dealer, but my wife definitely wants to sell it now.

I want to propose to her to fix it and fix it well at the dealer. I figure we'll spend about 2 to $3,000 to fix it. But now I don't know if I should continue to spend money. What should I do?
