You'd be surprised at what I can talk myself out of buying...why do you think I don't have a DVD player yet? :)
Do you or anyone else know where to get anything that prevents pop ups? I think I saw a thread somewhere that discussed some shareware or something that could fight them.
I don't necessarily think (though (I'm not a mechanic) that the engine will fall out so much as the attachments will start to let go. Like the water pump, transmission, etc. But at 100,000 miles, some of that stuff may have already been replaced.
