Actually, I was thinking in the direction of a YouTube channel. John might get enough views and likes to pay for the maintenance on his truck.
A good hot shower, throw the machine away, introduce the kittens to that hole in the closet baseboard where the mice are sticking their noses out of.
@Don Alaska @Von Jones @Bobby Cole If there is another issue with my truck, my final rant is gonna be how long the fire lasted when I put a match to it. Or maybe I'll park it in a high crime area so Allstate is less suspicious of its demise. Assuming that the replacement of all these electronic components has exorcised the gremlins, I don't anticipate further issues...I put less than 1,000 miles a year on it (although such infrequent use might be a factor in its decline.)
They did not admit that a mechanic pulled the relay and failed to put it back, and they wouldn't dare try to sell me a new one, so that's what they came up with. My overriding gripe is the $150 diagnostic fee they charge for each issue. I'm used to places doing this so that they don't end up being free troubleshooters, but if you have the shop then do the work, that fee is at least partially credited. These guys don't do that.
I ordered a TV that was on-sale from BJ's Newest catalog, The site says it takes 3-5 days for delivery. I'm still waiting for a delivery apparently the trucker they use lost the t v, So I have to wait per the trucker to put a tracer on it, Not happy with this I called BJ'sj Customer service and they're gonna put an escalation report on it, either was I have to wait. What really bothers me in talking to the trucker She said if they find it, they will open it to make sure everything is there, If the box is sealed Why do you have to open it? Gives the impression of a scam a way to get rid of open box returns.
Some places think that insulting the customer brings you closer. I guess anger can connect you, in a twisted kind of way.
Daggone post office delivery tracking system sucks eggs. I order stuff from Rock Auto, and there was a split delivery. Both packages were supposed to arrive last Thursday. One of them arrived Friday the 8th, and the tracking on the second package is as follows: -Wednesday 12/6: Arrived in Concord NC -Thursday 12/7: Arrived in Richmond VA (50 miles up the road) -Thursday 12/7: Arrived in Charlottesville VA (20 miles up the road) -Saturday 12/9: Arrived in Greensboro NC (200 miles away from me, and 70 miles from where it started) I'm not really in a rush for this stuff, but how does a package make its way from the post office 20 miles up the road from me to a post office 200 miles away in another state??? And I received notification on Friday the 8th that both packages were en route to me on the local carrier's truck. That status no longer appears in their chain of events. The service here is good but their corporate databases need to be overhauled. I can't wait to see what happens the week leading into Christmas.
