Thank goodness it's a Friday and a 3 day weekend. I'm gonna kickback, enjoy the cooler weather and maybe turn off my cell phone.

How about you?

I've had an aggravating last few days. First of all, the company car's transmission took a dirt nap on Tuesday, I barely made it the dealer to get it in. Driving 25 miles an hour the whole way, the engine was hollering and barking its disapproval.

On the way home from the office today, driving my own vehicle cause it took the dealer 3 days to get the company car fixed, I barely make it home, the car was starting to overheat. I just dropped it off at the shop to have them look at it.

I had to take a cab over to get the company vehicle. The cabbie was basting some shytty ass music. First of all, shouldn't they not be playing loud music to begin with?? Maybe roll the windows up and put on the AC, it was a little toasty today. Then, while driving, the cabbie decided that the next song that came on the radio was a jam, cause he then turns it up even louder.

Jeez, I tell ya.

I hope I'm good for car f ups for a while. I don't even know what the damage is gonna be on the personal car yet.

Waiting with bated breath.

Bro, when your engine is cold, it's a good idea to check your coolant level. It should also be 50% ethylene glychol antifreeze/50% water. Or it could be the rad cap, heater hose,thermostat, water pump, etc.

Best of luck.

Oh man. I hope she is okay on this trip! I'd never do that as I just can't drive distances if I'm not rested. I used to be able to, but not any more!!

I don't know if you saw me earlier post, the company vehicle's transmission cost 2700 bucks.

I'd be real pissed if that was my personal vehicle.

The things only got 70K on it, and to lose the tranny would make be go all postal if I had to pay that damn shyt.
