Monte's New Car



Since we moved in August Monte has not had his own vehicle to drive to work. Most days he drove the van (which was awful for me to not have a car!) if he didn't take the van, he drove the big work truck-but that was really costing us a ton of money for gas. So he finally got a new car last week. Its a 2002 Volkswagen Jetta. Before he had even driven it 100 miles the check engine and other lights were on. He took it to the dealer we bought it from and they said they would pay for half of the repairs. When they plugged it in they found 9 things wrong with it!! Gurrrr..... $280 later it is fixed. Unfortunately, now we are sitting here at the office because the van is getting worked on! It has been shaking really bad on the interstate so we thought it needed an alignment.....nope-it needs the tire rods replaced and 3 new tires......Monte loves it when we hang out in the office (NOT!)

Hey Monte! When you guys have the ABS sensor go out, AND IT WILL! Call me, haha I will tell you where you can send it to get fixed for 1/5 the price "Seriously." Car looks GREAT! We loved our Passat, just seemed like these cars have a mind of their own. Hope all is well!
