DOH – car breakdown in Montana
My car is fixed, for now. About $500 total. The guys finished the repair just before closing.
____ original post:
I was half hoping my old Honda would break down in Vegas. … Have it towed to the auto wrecker. Fly home to Calgary. Simple.
For my $1600 initial cost, I didn’t expect it to last forever.
Worst case scenario → break down in the middle of nowhere.
From Livingston, I still need to get home to Calgary. How do I do that without the Honda?
I gambled. About $500 (so far) to replace the fuel pump and filter, same day.
Livingston, I presume.

Pretty little town. Bet there is no *Bux there though!
Where are you getting WiFi?

McDonalds wifi didn’t work, as oft happens.
I’m at Coffee Crossing, waiting on the repairs.

Looks like a pretty charming town! Sorry for the aggravation, though…

Reminds me of the day my Corvair died and the scrap merchant came and loaded it on a flatbed.

Coffee Crossing – sounds interesting!
Is it like a Duck Crossing, or a Deer Crossing?
