Bad Day
My day started by wakeing up a 4am to go to work in Sterling (barn resto) walking out the door at 5am I got a call from my brother. He wrecked his car and needs help. So I canceled in Sterling and went to Roxbury to get the trailer then to McPherson to get his car. Car was loaded and back in Moundridge by 8:30am.

I guess it is a good day when a Ford has to rescue a GM.

Is he going to repair it or is he looking to replace. A wreck is never a good thing and sorry to see the crunch.

Just about as bad as my day yesterday. Had to get towed back to town by a Dodge and he gloated all the way too.

Sounds like it might be time to look at a new variety of refreshments for the long term. Better for him and better for other folks on the road.
