WTF..are you serious!? I had to spend over a year in NJ after we acquired a company headquartered up in Wayne. Sheesh...there's definitely an accent and they let you know it WASN'T a "City" accent. I actually like the speed of conversation up there though...cause I naturally talk very fast so it nice not having to "wait" for someone to finish their thought...

sucks about it dying, had it happen to my car (engine just randomly died), but thankfully it seemed to bounce right back and didn't need to be towed/fixed (and was close enough to parents that could get help if needed AND it wasn't on the big city freeways

)

It ended up being the fuel pump, we dropped off the truck yesterday evening. Although my mom had to borrow the car and left the lights on so she had to have my dad go get her and jump the car. We've been doing well with cars this week.

ouch had to have my fuelpump replaced a few months back 400$

...400$ for a fuel pump to be replaced

What kinda car.....

Thats just riciulous, Fuel pumps are the single most easiest thing to put on a car urself and they cost 30bucks. im confused by that 400$ number. and rawr if u can do it urself id recommend that, theres no point in paying a mechanic 90$ an hour for 15min worth of work.

yeah, we didn't know what was busted, so we had to pay for something anyways, and it's just easier for my parents to just have the mechanics do it... still sucks.. but it's over and done with.

Maybe your thinking fuel filter. I have done 4 fuel pumps on 4 different vehicles, all were a two person job that took about 2-3 hours each. A couple of them were $60 one was $220.
Many fuel pumps now days are in the tank and require dropping the tank which is so easy since your fuel pump always wants to go out when you have a full tank. An in tank fuel pump done by a mechanic $400 sounds about right.

like 300 for the part 100 for the guy to do it for a gmc sierra (city truck) they had to take off the bed i was told to get to the fuel pump oh and it was pump + filter
