Good Morning Steve, Jay and the rest of MN!! Yes it is finally Friday!! Half a day and I am going campin!! Hope everybody has a great day!

Here is a pic of that Vette I picked up last night. There were a bunch of people around last night that were taking pics as I was loading so it was pretty funny. I dont think the guy who owns it thought it was funny though! Lol

Any idea what is wrong with it Troy?

That is a rotten feeling having a vehicle towed. I know the feeling. I had to have my truck towed right after I bought it...

Yeah Jay it is not a good feeling having your car towed. This one would not have drew so much attention except for the kind of car it is. He was also at a rod run GTG when it happend.

As far as what is wrong with it, the steering wheel wont unlock. The car runs and drives just no steering. Apparently there was a recall on this that was never done...untill now. I have to drop the car at the dealer in about an hour.

I just called Superior Ford to see if I need an appointment or if I can walk in. They recommended an appointment. I asked how long they needed to do the work. The cruise control work was about 10-20 minutes. The CPS was about an hour I told him even I could do that in about 5 minutes...

That is really sad that it takes 10-20 minutes! I call BS!! It seriously takes longer to walk out and open the hood then it does to fix the problem. Then they said CPS about an hour once again I call BS! What a joke! Sorry Jay but it bothers me when the dealers always make it sound worse than it is.
