And then there was a local to me guy who called me from GO Westy several
years ago saying they had told him AFTER he had aranged for and flown down
to get a van that...get this...
The tranny needed rebuilding..Customer asked why had they not told him about
that before and what was the problem with it...
They said "because its dirty"..Dirty??? he asked.... "Yes..its dirty so it
needs rebuilding"...
He called me and I said.."run, don't walk away from there before they BS you
out of any more money"...3 or so yrs later he is still driving that "dirty"
trans van...
