• Life Lesson: Never sell a car to friend or family member

  Last year I made the big mistake of letting a friend buy our little sedan on payments. Firts mistake was selling it to anyone on payment, second mistake was "selling" it to an unreliable friend. 2 months after buying the car they killed the engine and promptly stopped making payment. Haven't given us a penny since. Now they are trying convince one of their other friends to fix the car for them and they promise they will start paying us again. I kinda brushed it off at the time cause there was no follow through. Then all of the sudden today some random person shows up at our house and says David sent him over to look at the car. They didn't call or anything to give us a heads up that someone was coming over, they have not sent us any money. And of course my mom is raging mad cause the car is legally in her name and she now hates my "friends" for screwing us all over.

  I'm pissed cause I'm done being taken advantage of. There is no communication and it is ridiculous. AHHH Now I have the fun task of calling them and explaining very clearly that they cannot have the car and we need all the keys back. This also means our friendship is pretty much crumpled because she is going to of course blame us.
