I wouldn’t have answered the phone anyway. I gave you too good of a deal on that car because i just wanted to get rid of it. And then you dumped it to some Arkie used car guy. Sad, just another chapter of “Okieboy buys nice car and dumps it realizing later he should have kept it.” -D > On

Got a text from him this morning. Says he's about 2-1/2 hours from home, and other than the tire the ACC blower fuse has blown several times. He's not complaining but asking for any suggestions on how to resolve the situation. That is far more pleasant than I expected, so I'll offer

Geez. I had a better trip from Port Charlotte to Charlotte Michigan in the $550 W116. Spent the night in northern Georgia, found a low tire the next morning, blew it up before I left the motel, then when I got out of Chattanooga traffic I noticed a vibration in the rear. Turned out to be a dead

When I sold my daily drive 123 wagon, the speedometer died for the new owner within a couple miles of leaving my house, and then something else I don't remember died later in that trip. I felt bad, would have fixed those in advance if I'd known, but that is how it goes sometimes. I think the
