I really enjoyed getting ready for our move and proudly displayed all the boxes I packed up and filled with my stuff in one corner of the garage. I thought my parents would be thrilled with my efforts, but they were more concerned about getting rid of all the 'good junk' that had been brought to us over the years. Moving day was approaching and it was crunch time. After packing up all of the stuff we were taking with us, we brain-stormed on how to get rid of the rest.

There are many outsourcing sites online that are search engines to find just about any part you need. No more going to the junkyard to find that old part that you need to keep your cars running. You just need to visit your computer and find a site and find the part.

In the big picture I was kind of glad it happened now rather than 5 miles down the road with the new owner in it, even though I would have refunded their money. But frankly I was looking forward to getting the $500, and wished it hadn't happened at all. I called the guy who was due to see the car, and told his wife the situation. She informed me that he was going to be really seriously un-thrilled, and that he was already on his way.

How you act and what you do in the used car sales will also have a bearing on how safe you are. Apart from wearing protective gear, there are a few things you can do to prevent injury. It's a good idea to read any signs or safety information provided before you enter the yard. These will be fairly prominent and will warn you of any particular dangers such as electrical hazards, moving equipment or other potential issues.

Cars and trucks that are 1995 or newer, as of 2010 must have the title. Junk cars that are more than 15 years old don't require a title. Also having a registration can help in some cases it depends on your location and state rules/regulations.

Buying a new car gives you the peace of mind that your car hasn't been rescued from an accident and 'cut and shut' (more about this later). Plus you don't have to worry about service history and recurring problems.

When people dump their used cars off at an auto parts recycler, they are freeing up precious space in the almost overflowing landfills. It doesn't make sense to throw something away, when it can still be used. If you pick the part from a used car, you are going to be getting an actual manufacturer's part; no knock-offs here. You can rest assured that the parts recyclers will know which parts are usable, and which parts are actually junk.

While numerous used car parts are just fine, think twice about parts that directly correlate with safety, especially if you are often driving around passengers and small children. Some parts are best to purchase new.

It was early in our marriage, and we were still in college and just happened to be renting a small home on a major highway. Every year, there is a major yard sale that runs along the entire stretch of this highway through three states, called the 127 Corridor Sale. So, we decided to have a yard sale on the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of the major yard sale to help pay our college tuition and books. And remember, we were young and really just had junk lying around the house. We didn't expect much, but by Saturday evening when we closed up for the week, we counted our money and had made $1,200.00.

With a rent to own contract you simply have to make a minimum monthly payment to keep the car. This is a good option for those who do not have sufficient credit to buy a car in the more traditional sense. You are able to take home any car that you want without any credit check.
