  1. I noticed you make too quick decisions without informing us or allow us to discuss it. It doesn't hurt to brainstorm. I didn't even know you went on a cross country trip until you were already in Indiana. Even though you graduated from college, you still relied on your emotions of running to home base when something goes wrong. Clearly, you felt your home base in Jersey is a safe place. Obviously, you need to learn how to expand your mind when you have a problem elsewhere. That's what credit cards are for... emergencies. Sit back & cool down & think! Don't rely on your emotions!!!

  2. @solarcampercar The question is do you have a loan for your SUV??? If so, you might want to get the engine fixed until you paid down the loan first. Because... think how expensive it would be to keep paying on that loan while getting another vehicle??? Next time, don't get CHEVY. That's a POOR quality vehicle. There are other vehicles with better quality that would last up to 400K.

  3. I was thinking the same thing. Shipping it home would be a WASTE of money!

  7. A Tesla Camper would be a WASTE of money! You would be having so much problems that many mechanics would NOT know how to fix a Tesla engine. Your best bet is to get your engine rebuilt or buy a brand new engine at a bargain price. Shop around online!!! Shipping your SUV home for $2,000 is A WASTE of money!!!!!!! USE the money toward to engine rebuilding. Look for the best place out west to get your engine rebuilt at a good price. Jersey is not the best place to find cheap labor. If I were you, I would explore to find the best mechanic to get your engine rebuilt. You could even ask Car Wizard to see if he could do it. You could always get a used engine for cheap, but you will never know when it will break down. So, at this point, your best bet is to rebuild which could cost up to five grands or so. Do you think you could find another SUV for five grands? I doubt it... not in that good condition.

  8.  @solarcampercar  Well, compared to other vehicles, Chevy doesn't have high marks.

  9.  @MoneyMike-1  He can sleep in the SUV while he waits for the mechanic to be ready. Or sleep in the woods. There are many youtubers who have done that.

  10.  @cklindo4646  I would NEVER use the dealership. They are RIP OFFS!!! A lot of times, they send it to local mechanics that does a very good job for them.

  12.  @cklindo4646  He already spent $2,000 to ship it home. So your figures are wrong.

  13.  @IMaBeastDoWatDEn  The risk with an used engine is that it could break down unless it has low miles. Then, it would be worth it. Otherwise, it's best to go with rebuild or find a brand new engine at a bargain price. Because he can't afford to get break down again & again.

  14. You could have contacted CAR WIZARD in Kansas & see if he could take on your engine rebuild. He would have done a great job and he's fair. That's if you couldn't find a reasonable mechanic in Nevada.

  15.  @cynthiaranzolin5175  Why are you wasting my time??? Everyone agreed that he made a HUGE mistake by sending his SUV back home. Even he agreed after he thought about it some more. So, the WHOLE point is we offered to help him to make a good decision if he needs it. So, what is your problem, huh?? Do you have to be sarcastic??? Beat it!!! You don't get to tell me what to do!!!
