I got cost + 10% on parts and the labor to replace a rear hub and ABS ring, mount and balance 4 tires plus set the toe was only $90 something.

I wasn't saying the price was too high...I just wasn't expecting it.

More Ning.  [coffee]
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

That isn't too bad actually.

I got good prices...I just wasn't expecting a part that I replaced last spring to need replacing again.

What I need to do is keep an eye on the other side. It has the same brand part on it...cheap chinese junk... [bang] [bang] [bang]

I should have used my dad's motto...

Cheap is expensive and expensive is cheap.

Ning. Up here at 0600. Both dogs walked and fed.

My coffee is ready too!

I need to take the jeep in. The cost will depend on what's wrong. Transmission or linkage.

And they say that public transportation is expensive. I used to figure that it cost about $6,000 a year to own and operate a car but as it turns out that figure is low.

That sounds wrong.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.
