I hate car repair places like that because I just KNOW I'm the one getting screwed over, and yet I don't know enough about cars to know that I've been screwed over. My husband took his to get a tire replaced and they patched it up and put it on a different wheel. They basically just tried to shift the tires around so we wouldn't notice while charging us for a brand new tire. I would never have known, but my husband could tell that was what had happened. He was FURIOUS. Anyway, we didn't have to pay for our replacement tire after that. :-)KGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236206776336550381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-61147882213217519762009-02-11T18:39:00.000-05:002009-02-11T18:39:00.000-05:00What a tale - how unscrupulous they were!

Like my dad before me, they can find no "organic" reason.

I shall avoid Metuchen if I'm ever in those neck of the woods.<BR/><BR/>I am probably like that woman who never got her drivers license. I have but I hate to drive. I haven't driven since I retired 4 years ago. This must change. I'll try to buck up and get behind the wheel once we get a smaller car.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07461569436322815787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-85760737453919288502009-02-11T12:17:00.000-05:002009-02-11T12:17:00.000-05:00Car adventures.

I think there's something about experiencing driving adventures together that can bring poeple closer; or further apart as the case may be. <BR/><BR/>I have so many stories, too.
