    I guess I'll never understand the algorithm that determines what return shipping options you are offered. Sometimes they just say keep it and refund you anyway if shipping cost and restocking aren't worth it.

    Oh boy - good luck. Crabtree owned the Chrysler dealership (& later Toyota) in New Rochelle in the 1970's.
    "IMO" they had an absolute lack of ethics, honesty & other such desirable traits in humans.
    Example - took the new car in for service. Got it back & passengers seat recline wouldn't work - release lever & seat falls down. Took car to local garage for repair, mechanic found an old broken cylinder in the brand new car. Dealership had swapped in the broken unit & sold someone our new recline piston.
    Then there was the accident where the dealership blew up in the night. "suspicious" cause.

    I realize anyone is generations removed from the bad actors back then, but my forgiveness is hard to regain. Good luck with them. :-(

    They bought out the dealer I got my truck from probably a year or so ago, ever since it's been nonstop texts and phone calls trying to get me in the doors and looking at new stuff....a) you definitely don't want my truck lol and b) it's incredibly annoying and a huge red flag, especially coming from the experience I had at the previous dealer. No thanks

    Better to be too small rather than too big....

    Good morning CT. Happy Wednesday.

    Still filing the hole bigger. Switch goes about 1/4 of the way in. I know if I take my Dremel to it I'll only make the hole too big.
    Waiting on an email for when my wires will arrive, hopefully before the weekend.

    I have two different dimensions that I'm looking at.

    Happy first day of road salt.
    Saw the festive flashing lights of a town dump truck go past last night.

    Yup, predicting a massive 1/4" of snow-ish stuff here so out comes the inevitable over-preparation on the roads (or they won't do anything and we'll get 5x what was predicted)
