The appointment for the Focus to get new tires yesterday took almost two hours instead of the one I was promised. But, it has new shoes! I did get the extended warranty on them, which includes free tire rotations for the life of the tires.

Book prey was hunted and obtained. Book club was good, and then I came home.

today, I have the appointment for the Van to get new rear brakes and the drivers side slider door to be looked at, since it doesnt want to open at all. Its probably a sensor issue and I fully expect to be told that the parts are on order for it. sigh. For the old days when dealerships had all the parts for the things they repaired. Back then, it was a very rare thing to order a rare part, and it ususally had to come from the Factory.. in Germany.. (well, my folks worked for a VW dealership at the time),,,,

Car stuff, ugh, yeah. I'm not looking forward to the end of summer when two of our vehicles will likely need tires, maybe all three. Eldest has a recall on her seats, but refuses to take it in for the repair, damned if I know why. (She may have told me why, I just can't remember sh.. these days.)

I got a good deal on the tires, so, its a matter of some serious shopper gatherer hunting on deals..
