Good morning world. A little over a year ago, we bought a 2003 Dodge Neon for $400.00. What was the catch? It needed a transmission. Patrick looked and found one at a junk yard for almost $400.00. At the time, we thought that was not a bad deal. Just did not have the extra money or time to get it.
This summer Tyler has been here helping Patrick with work and he started working on the vehicles. It seemed almost all of them needed something.
My van might need a new fuel pump. The suburban needs a new radiator. Tyler's car needed several things. Tommy's truck has a leak in the fuel tank. A truck Tyler is trading his car for has brake issues. The Dodge pick up needs front end work. AND the Neon needed a transmission.
So Tyler got to work after work. His car is running good now.
He found a transmission in St. Louis for $175.00. It took a couple of days, but it is in! Tyler had to go back to his hometown to take care of something. He took the Neon as was running a tad better than his car.
We got a phone call just after 6 am. He made it just about 30 miles out and the transmission went out. Needless to say, he will not be able to make it to his appointment.
The good news is the transmission came with a year warranty. Just is going to take some time to take it back off. Go back to St. Louis (we are about 3 hours away). Pull another transmission. Put it in.
We are definitely blessed!
Be blessed and be a blessing,
Just some of my thoughts and actions,
Elizabeth
