Totaled a car 3 days after purchase So long story short, bought a used car and carried over some of the loan on the car I traded in (stupid I know but only about 2 grand) and then it was totaled 3 days later.

LPT – If you’re going to do any work on your car yourself, buy a torque wrench. Over or under torquing nuts and bolts can cause a lot of problems. Torque wrenches are easy to use and take the guesswork out of getting the fasteners tightened to spec. You’ll be glad you did. submitted by /u/86max86
