I love Car Talk and listen to it regularly. Indeed, I was muttering to myself their mantra about how it's always cheaper to fix an old car all day yesterday.
I always fix everything, and while a paint job is out--I'm dropping two grand next week on the catalytic converter and front brakes!--detailing might be good. Also I had an idea for an accessory that would make me happy for a bit, though I'm going to wait and see if it turns up as a Christmas gift first.
(It sounds so shallow, but the thing that would make me happiest is completely impossible. There is literally no good way to get sound from my iPod into the car--yes, really--and every weekday I spent at least an hour listening to distortions and hisses and cracks, and it is surprisingly unhappy-making.)
