Well, you know things can go wrong...Car will not be ready until this time next week due to illness. Had to change reservations with the airlines at an add-collect amt of $250!! It's only money, right? Not much I can do at this point.
Will keep u posted.

Maybe you can lay a good Jewish-Mother-Guilt-Trip on the paint shop and get them to cover your flight change fee....

Karl...I don't need to be Jewish to do that! I lived in NYC for 15 years.
Happy Hannukah, Xmas, Vesele Vonoce, Feliz Navidad, etc

Perhaps a personal makeover, put you and your car on level playing field?

You might even get lucky again.
