Kenworth Couldn't Fix Our A/C, So Where DID We Get it Fixed??

We trotted ourselves right down to El Paso, TX, and a couple of really nice Mexican guys fixed it 'on the spot'.
It only took them a little over an hour to take the line off, repair it and put it back on. No leaks either. Then they charged us a whole whopping $290 for the whole thing.

Now, contrast this with the Amarillo KW dealer who took two whole days, charged close to $1000 and still had leaks and couldn't make it work. On top of that, they had to give us a new compressor thingy because their guy put too much coolant in it and brned the d*mn thing to pieces. Then, we got an sttitude from them and they wanted us to stay over an extra day to "fix" it again.

Ummm, no.

So, finally found these guys, here in El Paso, and they were so nice and grateful for the business.

Now, that's the way it ought to be!!

For Some Fun....

Scroll down to the bottom of this page and what do you see??  That's right.  Little fishies swimming around.  What do they do??  Not much, as far as I can tell but they are cute.  Put your cursor in the box, do a click and watch the little buggers swim like all get out to get the 'food' you left.  Pretty funny in my book. 

Just messin' around now.  Having some fun.  Getting over the flu.  What else do you expect me to do?? 

Also, I added a video bar to the right hand side.  It's supposed to show lots of truck vids and pictures.  Kenworths in particular and some Peterbilts.  I'm not sure what it's supposed to "do" but it's interesting, don't you think?? 

Okay, back to getting over the flu....

Kenworth Ticked Me Off

I had a problem with my beloved KW900L and had to take it in to the KW dealer in Atlanta. 

"Only be a couple of hours before we get to you."  says the note-taker guy as he walks away after getting my complaint.

Alright! think I, I can wait and still get on the road to get the freight to my customer...who is demanding I get there.

Stoopid me, eight hours (count 'em, 8) later the specialist guy finally deigns to show up (yes, show up at work!  Whatta concept!) to work on my Precious.  Took him about three hours to fix her right up. 

Okay, I'm happy he fixed her but couldn't they have told me the guy wasn't there and wasn't due in for hours??  I could have scooted to my customer and then while empty, gone to the KW dealer in that town to have her fixed.   So, I lost a whole day for three hours work.  Sumbitch. 

The good news is, the fixed part is working like a champ and the guy did a whopping good job.  I'd had it worked on a couple of times and the problem kept popping up, sooooo's, I guess I should be happy.  Well, I am for the most part, just not happy with being lied to.  Boo on Atlanta KW!!  :-P
