Did she consider buying a cheap used car to tide her over until she could save up a down payment? That’s what I’ve done for my kids when they come crying with broken cars.

And if I had kids and an inheritance to pass along, I'd like to see them enjoy it rather than have it be used when I can't see it.
Township wants an exorbitant amount of sidewalk repairs and the private walkway to my steps. They even want the driveway apron redone which has no tripping hazards and only slight wear and cracking. They painted giant “X”s all over.
They claim the AC unit was never permitted, but it was on the original SOW for the addition. I left a strong message to the township that I want the inspector to meet with me on the issues.
New house has slightly elevated Radon levels. At least that’s on the sellers.
Oh and we are awaiting the results of the buyer’s home inspection. I’m sure that guy found a dozen things that are pending doom.
On the plus side the mortgage is fully approved.

I am sure if you go around to all the town owned property you will find plenty of defective concrete and paving.

The apron and private walkway to the front door is not bad at all with some minor edge cracking that is flat and zero trip hazard. Same scenario with the driveway apron.
Yet my neighbor has sidewalks that are 6”+ tripping hazards from a tree.
I told my wife I’ll go to the top of this little s*^+ town if I have to. They did nothing but break my you know what since the day I moved in with the electrical service, the addition permits took forever to get and now this.
Funny story about this town. We have a small family owned car dealer here (you know the one). They practically gave the code enforcer a car as a sign of good faith to the town. As a return for the favor in the same week he gave them a stack of violations.

It would actually be the least costly to keep the Sebring on the policy when we get rid of it than to drop it and move one of the other cars over. Not that I would do that.

I had thought about paying the whole thing, but that gives her no responsibility for her car and I really can't afford to deplete my capital that much. $8000.00 is enough to help her get to a payment that she can barely manage on her two or three jobs (5-day job during the week and 2-part time jobs over the weekends). I did not want to get the warranty, but since she keeps her cars until they just "die", the extended warranty will provide her with a cushion should anything happen to the car after the Honda warranty is over. The warranty she purchased ($1600) also covers items such as hoses, belts, wipers, etc., above and beyond what Honda warrants. She was the one who wanted the extended warranty, not me.
Bottom line, cdnpinhead, she's my daughter, I love her, and I want her to be as happy as possible!

one reason I purposely tried to avoid houses with sidewalks on my side of the street. Plus all the people that would basically walk on your front lawn! Better off keeping them across the street

Yes, I am responsible for keeping my section of sidewalk free from snow, but if there is damage to it, I reach out to the HOA and they'll coordinate the repairs.

OR
the city has a contractor chosen and paid by the city do the repair and then bills the homeowner. That is usually cheaper than having another contractor do it. The city does the summer maintenance in 5 zones, so every 5 years our stuff is inspected and brought up to snuff. Good. That contractor spends the whole spring, summer, and fall doing driveway aprons, sidewalk strips, and curbs in that zone.
The City a couple decades ago had someone go around with a shovel to level the expansion joint material that stuck up between lengths of sidewalk. A lady tripped on one sticking up and sued the city (and a neighbor). Money grubber actually.
The City also tested concrete leveling by having a company inject cement under sidewalk strips that had sunk. Paid by city rather than homeowner to repair drooping sidewalks. (Didn't work very well, except ours is still great after being lifted.)

This "selection" of a vehicle took a lot of strength from this aging body (3 hours) and we hadn't even begun the pricing, let alone the Finance process, which took whatever was left of my strength and patience.
As to your comment about this being the first Honda Civic "punch" here, there is a reason for that - which one of us being of sound mind and in love with our God-given precious bodies would buy or lease a Civic Coupe (one of us guys who live and breathe cars as a hobby) for themselves as a daily driver? I have driven in this one where my knees were almost touching my lips while sitting in the front passenger seat! That poor salesman had to sit in the rear seat! But for a 50 year old woman/daughter who is fairly slim and stands 5'5" tall in her sneakers - it was perfect.🤓😜🤪

Maybe some quick drying cement will work for you too.

there really aren't a lot of normal smaller cars with sticks. You can get a more sports edged model (Si, GTI, WRX) but getting to be slim pickings if you want smaller wheels, more compliant suspension, etc.
