As Roo would say "uggg!" Ok- a few months ago- Ben's metro was starting to have engine problems- so we took it in- and they said "oh it needs a new engine, or this engine rebuilt" Now we just put a new engine in it last year, and while it does get plenty of miles put on it commuting back and forth to work each day, we didn't think we should spend the $ on another engine. SO... we started looking for another car. We found another OLD metro and thought- on he can drive this one while he fixes the other one.
THEN He and Doodle were in an accident- read about it Here and totaled that old metro. Again "UGG!" So we borrowed Ben's Aunt's truck (which she so graciously offered- Thanks Pam!) and started getting serious about fixing the first metro- ordering parts and tools and all sorts of things.
THEN our truck needed new sparkplugs- now sparkplugs- they aren't hard to replace- so he got under the hood, and started to pull them out- and 2 of them BROKE as he was pulling them out. "UGG" So he's tried and tried to get the pieces out. I guess we'll have to take it into the dealer and pay way too much for them to pull the sparkplug pieces. And now we are down to no vehicles working- only a borrowed truck. WAAAA! When it rains it pours they say.
