car problems

Today's topic is cars. I'm not a huge fan of car talk, especially compared to my husband who could talk cars for hours with anyone. Our van's started acted up yesterday and my husband had to get a ride home from a co worker yesterday. He took our other car today, which has issues of it's own to be dealt with. We don't buy new cars, can't really afford new payments on new cars for one thing. Since we've been married, Jeff has bought over 10 older cars I believe and over 3 motorcycles. My husband may have to stay after work(the van is at work) and try and fix the starter on the van.  I wish we had a vehicle that could be consistantly good year after year.
