I know, don’t say it, I said I was going to post more because work had finall slowed down, and I haven’t been doing that. My apologies. The insanity from work has been replaced by the insanity with my truck. I’m on Week 3 of the SUV Saga, and frankly, I’m just tired of it all. I’ve been having starting problems with the truck, that initially the dealership thought was the starter motor, so they replaced that. And the truck still has the same problem. This time I took it to a different dealership, as Dealership #1 didn’t treat me nicely. I mean, I already feel at a disadvantage because I’m a woman, but then I just wasn’t feelin’ the love, so I went elsewhere. Dealership #2 is much better. While they’re still trying to solve the problem, at least they’re being helpful. They’re giving me rides to work when I drop off the car, offering to find out if I have an extended warranty (which I do), so that I can rent a car in the meantime (which I did), and generally they’re just way better. They’ve diagnosed two potential problems, however one of them could have a more complicated solution, so they’re waiting to hear back from the manufacturer so they know how to best proceed. All in all I’m much more pleased with this dealership, so I’m not as frustrated, even though it’s been 2.5 weeks and we still don’t know what the exact problem is.

I wish I had a choice of dealerships. The mini is just giving me grief (I had forgotten about my bad car karma when I bought used). The dealership in St. Catharines is not the greatest. They do drop me off and pick me up from work, though. They just move in slow motion and it costs a fortune.
