Randomness

First off, i'd like to take a minute and say a little something about the shop that my car is currently in. "Universal Transmission" located in FDL,wisconsin.

DONT GO THERE !

Since bringing my car their they've been constantly acussing me of racing and beating on the car, all just because the transmission went out... with 170k miles on it !!!!


So since i dont have a lift that im able to get ahold of to do the job myself, i had them add some parts to the car including the torsen diff, and clutch..



Walk in to the place before going to work and the owner tells me.. You know you dont need this in the car, its kind of a pain in our ass to put these things in. Further more he went on to be more of a dick. But im hopeing.....HOPEING.... they do a good job on it. *cross's fingers*

_____________________

Part 2


Anyone know of a good place to store a car ?
I've found a few place's in the paper for around 50$ bucks a month... To me that seemed kinda high.
"Looking for a heated storage place."




Enough of me rambling, im going off to bed!

Re: Randomness

I'd pull the car out immediately. If they dont want to do the job they probably wont do the job right.

Seriously.

Take your car somewhere else.
