Sorry, it was a joke


No--I'm done. Just gonna take it and go.

He rents space in a body shop. I think he did that because I asked him for a total and maybe he didn't have a receipt handy? Who knows. I'd like to pay him in Monopoly money!! You know...since I didn't have any cash handy.

Chill out. It would be funny to see the look on the dudes face to have the tables turned on him for once. I think its awesome he got his truck fixed, but the way he was treated getting his truck back, I still wouldn’t trust the guy. The bill he was given was a joke, I wouldnt Pay it unless it was itemized. He should get at least a 25%+ break based on the time he was without his ride


You think this is a game???? :crazy:

Well...I picked it up. The new front brakes that he was to install weren't on, they were completely MISSING!! I asked him where they were, he said he doesn't know. I told him I wanted them installed when I gave him the truck, along with the upper control arms, rear ss brake lines and all the other parts I gave him. So he started showing me all the bills--gaskets, head bolts, blah blah. I told him I wasn't eating those brakes. He had the balls to say how does he know that they were even in there!! That made me BEYOND PISSED! So now he's calling me a liar. I've know this kid for 8 years, and now he's calling me a liar. That one actually hurt! Going back and forth---anyway, he said just give him the $1800 and we're even. He's losing money, whatever, whatever. He doesn't want to know about the Tahoe anymore either. Ok.
There was alot more said, but you guys get the drift. Funny, the belt got thrown on the way home--so if it wasn't for my gf following me in my van I would've been stuck. Alt looks misaligned. Driving without getting on it, it's fine, but once you nail it, it throws the belt. Puked out antifreeze, and he put that greenish universal shit in it too. So, now I need to bleed the brakes because they're spongy AF, find out why my turn signals aren't working--either side--gotta get a wheel alignment because of the new upper control arms, figure out how to fix the misalignment with the alt, and some other odds and ends.
I'll get a vid and pics for you guys tomorrow.
