Priorities.....That's what they have cell phones and cabs for. After all if the POS is broke down on the freeway it's going to get towed anyway.
1) transportation
2) hobby
Not....

However....... Sometimes you don't know you don't have reliable transportation until you're stuck on the side of the road..... Originally Posted by Eccie Addict

On my way there, the truck died on I 10....I called December before I called roadside assistance just to let her know. I waited an hour to get towed, but got a quick repair done (it was due to a wire that came loose from the half done repairs the night before).
I immediately sent a text and then a phone call to December to see if I could still come over...but she had already left town. So not only did I really have truck problems, but I missed out on seeing her...which REALLY SUCKS! Originally Posted by Houston65

Last time you had a computer issue, and now this . . . luck just doesnt seem to be on your side in this hobby.Last time i never had an appointment. I have never had a NCNS, that is something that very few providers can say....and I called December when I wasn't going to show...something not every hobbyist does. I think overall that with my 11 reviews, all those providers would see me again, as well as some I haven't reviewed here. It the the lying providers, like the two (well, actually the SAME girl) mentioned in that thread that have issues.

You had your truck fixed the night before but called to cancelled because your truck was broken. Then felt guilty, rescheduled the cancelled apt. And on the way to the apt. the truck that was fixed the night before breaks down on I-10.
