Reality is setting in, likely gunna have to get rid of my Genesis :((

I’m probably going to have to get rid of my 2010 3.8 Genesis coupe

I love it, it was basically my fist car, I had a veloster for less than a month and immediately moved into this. I had a kid young and I’m a single dad with my little man full time, he’s getting older and cant really fit back there anymore but If I decide to keep it I’ll just rip the passenger seat out. I have a lot of points on my license and insurance at my age with this driving record is astronomical I’m paying upwards of $500 a month. Im driving 75-100 miles total daily in my commutes and gas is astronomical which equates to me putting in $25 every day just to get to work and home

Ontop of all of that it feels like over the last 4 months it’s just fallen apart every way it can, I’ve repaired as much as I can but I think the point im giving up at is the engine leaking oil from the Orings under EVERY spark plug.

I put 50k+ miles on it in less than 2 years, but now that it’s at 185,XXX miles AND I let the interior go to hell I’m sure she’s borderline worthless

I’ve had a long hard thought about everything and I think I should be looking into something along the lines of an AWD Santa Cruz purely for practicality.

I guess as I get older I can come back to this platform.
