Problem is, once you get there, you now have to drive 2 cars home? Why not just take a cab over? - Axel   Matthew A.

Cheapest too! Matt   Brad Brinkman (Brad_b) New Member Username: Brad_b Post Number: 35 Registered: 09-2002 Posted on Monday, September 29, 2003 - 08:57 pm:    If its at a dealership. They can send a shuttle to come pick you up from your house. Just ask the service rider if you could be picked up. Its also free   Brian Dickens (Bri) Senior Member Username: Bri Post Number: 721 Registered: 08-2002 Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 09:18 am:    If it is a dealer they should be giving you a rental.   Chris Browne (Chris_browne) Senior Member Username: Chris_browne Post Number: 357 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 09:32 am:    Not a bad idea, Axel....totally forgot to even think about it....probably assuming that I had the kids with me (way too young to be left at home alone).. Found a better solution...shop took pity dropped it off at home...   noel Bond (93dico) Member Username: 93dico Post Number: 83 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Wednesday, October 01, 2003 - 09:27 am:    Lets hear it for the Boy
