By May 2009 my VX will be completely restored!
Because at this rate there won't be much else I have to fix!!!
It is in the high 30's and rain/sleeting outside. I was driving home from work last night/early this morning and I hear a loud BOOM! Then an invisible Harley Davidson came up next to my VX and wacked his throttle. The sound is absolutely aweful and the smell is even worse. I pulled over immediately. Something is very wrong with my exhaust system. But being cautious, I called a tow truck anyway... I don't want to do anymore damage. He dropped my baby off at the mechanic... they open tomorrow.
Since Moab last year I fixed the serpentine belt twice, the water pump pulley, my U-Joints, brakes, and many little odds and ends, not including cosmetic repairs. Yep, my VX should be fully restored in no time. I have no say on the pace she wants to get fixed up, I just have to go with whatever she says. I hate that!
Oh yea, and the night before last I had a screw in my right rear tire and the tire was operating at 18 psi!!! YIPES! So the TOD was going crazy and my VX was making funny noises. When I got home at 3AM me and Gill replaced it with my full size spare. Which was a pain in the A! It took both of us multiple attempts to get the dang nuts off! (Ha ha... I just reread this and that sounds bad or good... you know what I mean you pervs!)
Anywho... It has been an interesting start to a new year. Let's hope it gets better.
