so my wonderful little white truck is in the shop getting the heater fixed.

day 1 (thursday)

Posey's: hey brian we found the problem

me: oh yea how much is it going to cost?

Posey's: well, $200 to pull the dash, $45 for the part.

me: sounds great i thought it would be over $300, man that's excellent go for it

Posey's: well the part will get here tomorow so we will do the work then.

me: hey that's fine i have the volkswagen to drive take your time do it right.

day 2 (today, friday)

Posey's: hey brian how's that volkswagen running?

me: ah, great, but i can't wait to get my truck back.

Posey's: well you think the volkswagen will make it next week?

me: WHAT?!

Posey's: well we replaced that part, which was part of the problem, but wasn't the entire problem. evidently the valve on the thingamajig is broken which is what caused the "blandor motor" to burn up so you will also need the thingamajig. I was calling to see if you want to go ahead with the repairs, or if you want us to just send the "blandor motor" back and just give it back to you as is.

me: well, how much will it cost to fix the thingamajig?

Posey's: well, we have to replace the blandor motor and the thingamajig the thingamajig costs $480 because we have to buy it directly from ford. plus tearing out the dash, plus removal of thingamajig and removal of "blandor motor" so the total will come to $846, and that's not including the radiator being flushed. i figured i would call you so you can talk it over with your wife and figure out what you want to do.

me: <:sigh:> ok let me call her and see.

Posey's: alright just call me and let me know.

(phone call to diana)

(phone call back to Posey's)

me: go ahead and do it

me: <:cry:>  :-(

i think between the 0% financing at the ford dealership and the expense on my truck god is trying to tell me something but, unfortunately diana disagrees.

good thing hershey is running good. (bus content)
