I just picked up a '98 Mazda Protege cheap from a co-worker to help
offset the 12mpg I get and have someplace more comfortable for the
kids in the back seat, and man, if you think our Dodge parts are
expensive, check out just the cost to ship a fuel filter from Rock
Auto for it!

Yes, this is a shipping error, but everyone should watch their
shipping before checking out at Rock Auto.
And no matter how much we complain about having to clean our
pintle-style idle control motors, at least they don't outright fail
and cost $315 from Napa or $220 from Rock Auto like on this Mazda.
Yikes. Thank god I kept my Dakota. Can't complain though, I paid a
grand for a car that lists for ~$2,000 locally.
M.B.
