Check your tie-rods? did your traction kick on because of it, did you screw up a bearing?

Thanks everyone. Amy health insurance is a must for me.

Today just gets better. I sold the Blazer also. I took a loss on it, but I think it was meant to be. The guy who bought it lost his home and his truck. He is being moved for his job 250 miles away and needed to tow his trailer. His daughter is a senior in school and offered to not play volleyball and give that money to her dad to help buy the blazer. I decided that he needed that 500.00 more than I did and thanked him for serving in Iraq and wished him good luck. The tears in his daughters and his eyes was enough for me. I bought the blazer last year for 2000.00 and sold it this year for 1500.00

Hope everyone has a great day.

p.s. I am putting the 1500 aside and starting my fund to buy a 1994-2000 chevy tahoe. Since I have a job I get to keep the boat and will need a tow rig. Woo Hoo!!!
