Truck Saga.... volume: 357

So the truck doctors told me that there are a bunch of crap wrong with my truck.  One of the major things wrong they couldn't determine because they two codes came up on the diagnostic and only one should have.   Apparently the two codes that came up together - NEVER are supposed to come on together. This meant they couldn't determine which code was the one that was legitimate.  They had to reset the thingy and are having me drive it again so that the light comes on again.
 
Luckily, either thing affects my gas mileage and gas power to the truck. (...lucky me...) and I can drive the truck. Even though I thought both of the things have been going bonkers, the car doctor people told me that it can't be the case and has to be one or the other.  (WHATEVER.)
 
So anyways,  my strut is broken on the back passenger side, the 02 sensor or knock sensor needs to be replaced, my heat fan doesn't work unless it's on the highest controller, the heat shields next to my exhaust are banging against each other making a metal on metal vibration noise anytime I hit the gas and my wiper motor was starting to act up this morning.
 
All I want to do is drive my truck and be safe.  That is until Spring when I trade the piece of crap in for a newer sportier car.  Stupid truck.

You're going to have a fantastic winter with your wonderful truck. Dear Lord, I hope your seatbelts are in good working order...as is your cell phone.
