Now the second guy that I hired to pick it up in Hastings called this morning. He got 70 miles from here and the transmission gave up on him. It's a 2013 Dodge diesel that's still under warranty. Maybe, just maybe, someday in the future, it might happen sort of.Bob Dunahugh. The guy with the GMC that can't get home.

Bob,

and some people say: Don't buy a 40y/o car, cause it will break down.
Get something new, it will be much more reliable.

Bob, has it occurred to you that perhaps Someone doesn't want you in that particular coach? Smile

I have refused to fly in a J-3 Piper Cub since 1972, because two of them have quit on me in the air. Only way a J-3 is going to hurt me is to fall on me. Superstituous? Somewhat. Facefirst instead of feetfirst for 43 years after? You betcha.
