No justice after 3 bad head gaskets
 Dear Terry,
My 1989 Lincoln Continental with only 85,000 original miles on it now needs to have its third head gasket replaced. I've taken good care of this car and kept it garaged. This will cost more than the car is worth in repairs. It's just not fair. What can I do?

 Dear Frank,
You've got to face the fact that you've got an 18-year-old car, no matter what's on the odometer.
Also, the 1980s were not stellar years for big cars made by Detroit, so dependability wasn't the best. You must decide whether it's worth repairing the Lincoln or shopping for something newer.  | | This week | | | | • | Big Three offer best deals on 2007 models | | • | I can't afford my car -- what should I do? | | • | Won't my hybrid supercharge my electric bill? | | • | What can I do about gasket that keeps going bad? |
