My wife got all excited and threatened me if we didn't get the special service. Which I knew was bogus but hey its her dad's money.

So they changed the sparkplugs, fluids, and hoses/ Serviced the trans and the breaks. Cost $700.

That $700 service is now possiably a $1700 dollar service.
sparkplugs fluids and hoses for 700 is still a total rip off imo. you could have done all that stuff yourself for less than a bill im sure, then spent the rest on your lady friend. did they change your timing belt at least?

3800? buy some tools, look on ebay and get to work... is it auto or manual transmission?
