Nothing encouraging to report on my van.

And the rental car place just pulled the trigger on all their pending charges to-date.

So I sent a terse email to the service manager notifying her of the amount.

Earlier in the day I swung by the dealership:

The mechanic called in sick today, I suppose because they are at a stand-still again.

Gave the service manager a copy of my invoice for the material I ordered and pointing out that the mechanic hasn't seen the chrome tophats for my hubs, and is missing hardware for one of the shocks and that the model number might be helpful.
I'm thinking they likely misplaced the invoices too.

I wondered out loud that maybe they were used to spruce up a used van and they're gone by now.

Hi there Ken.

The car rental charges are wiping me out, soon I could have bought a decent beater.

I decided to put on one of two conduit carriers this afternoon. I just finished up, so no good pics yet, but I do have one. This is a piece of 2" PVC inside it. This thing is massive! Conduit carrier #2 comes in on Monday.

Congrats.
