Despite rumors to the contrary, my dealer has a specially trained tech who performs any work involving glass replacement- no outside shop is used. My SA told me that the one problem they see most often with Safelite installs is that they remove the wiper/light sensor from the old windshield and try to bond it to the new windshield. Which works great. Except when it doesn't. Frequently the automatic wipers and/or lights no longer work; of course Safelite claims the problem is unrelated to the windshield replacement- even though the wipers worked fine up until that time.
So, I will probably have to pay extra for the privilege of having the job done correctly- so it goes...

Will see what CarMax offers. The one around here I've had bid on a couple of cars. They were thousands off on both considering what the trade value was on them.
Still, will see the number they put on it. If I can flip it quick, make a few bucks, I'll do it just because of the garbage I've been put through. They do get crazy money used.
IF it becomes too much of a hassle, it goes to the Aunt and I'll wash my hands of it.
WEll of course...some people have never had a "good day" in their lives.

I still like it - why am I suprised that I like the 2015-2016 Nissan Versa S 4-door sedan? Same bunch of healthy, hearty, stealthy designers, that's why. Wife hates it, but she hates all cars I like that aren't Kia Soul's!

Ask me how much I like the 2er after this weekend. The sled is making its HPDE debut at Putnam Park Sports Car Course; it will be only the second time I've driven an automatic on the track- the first was a 2007 Alpina B7, which was an entirely different animal...

I noticed the same thing with the Benz C300 4 cyl turbo I drove last week.
Good luck this weekend.
eventually in the upcoming shopping I will try out the Audi, MB and BMW 2 liter motors for myself.

At at the end of this month, I have 8 prescriptions that need to be refilled at an estimated cost to me of over $2000 for 90 day supplies and most of them are generics. I can't figure that one out at all!

Mike, sorry to hear about your expenses. At least the donut hole is supposed to shrink every year. Doesn't help you now though.

I had a friend comment yesterday that competition from the foreign brands had been good for the US car makers. He pointed out that many cars were probably better than the foreign competitors. Of course he didn't consider the unfair pricing due to improper exchange rates of the home country currencies making their products cheaper here. He's a Kia owner very proud that they lied about fuel mileage and have to pay him $50 approximately every year based on his mileage he reports to them. Hmmm.

The bucket is starting to do its job, but like Shifty's rats, I'm pretty sure I have a huge supply of chipmunks.

Maybe they couldn't reach an agreement with Mitsubishi.

So, one morning, I got dressed early and waited for the pecking sound to start. Sure enough, it started at about 6:30 AM on a Saturday. I went outside and looked up to our bedroom windows and there it was - pecking away at my eaves. I tried everything to convince this woodpecker that he was "pecking up the wrong tree!" But to no avail.
A friend of mine worked at the zoo and I called him and asked him to check with the aviary specialist as to what I could do to rid myself of the woodpecker menace - he would eventually work his way through my eaves. He called me back and said there were four suggestions - shoot it down (and damage the roof even further since I was not a sharpshooter) - scare it away with loud noises or a broomstick - move the house (he was joking of course) - or have my eaves and facias covered in aluminum.
I tried the broomstick idea which didn't work - almost fell out of the window one morning! I then tried one of those aerosol horns every morning when he'd show up - but all I did was cause hate and discontent among my immediate neighbors. So, accepting defeat, I called the aluminum siding installers that had sided my house around the brick veneer and they covered all wood surfaces on the upper level of my house including the window sills and frames around the storm windows. $2500 was the cost which was a lot of money back in 1982.
Well, after pecking at the aluminum for a few days, the woodpecker ended up bothering one of the houses across the street. I just figured out why they never talked to us or came over for our yearly Christmas Open Houses - now he was stuck with a woodpecker.

Now, I could never live in a city - too confining.
