you say you don't fault this kid for having Asperger's but yet you say having Asperger's probably led to the decline of his car I quote you perhaps your Asperger's also contibuted to the horrible condition of the car by your lack of maintenance and driving skills " Robert you sound a little too close to the situation

To buy used car requires a lot of social skills to deal with used car salesman I don't have the skills On the day in question the car salesman they put me with was fairly new he did not have a car sale under his belt The other salesmen whooped and hollered about his first car sale You're right about all the statistics you laid out edge of the car Etc My biggest problem that day was trying to deal with used car salesman by myself

You bought an 8 Year old car and financed it with a 48 month loan. It is now more than 4 years later, which would put this at a 12 year old car and your loan payments being complete.
So just how could a dealer know 4 years down the road what repairs are being made. If you are going to use your Asperger's as an EXCUSE as to why they ripped you off, perhaps your Asperger's also contibuted to the horrible condition of the car by your lack of maintenance and driving skills since you obviously are trying to say you don't understand certain things.
I am not discounting your disability, I am discounting you attempting to use it to try and gain sympathy..
