Kaleb,
Prepare for the sales team onslaught. I kid you not, these people are gonna
try to pressure you into buying a time share. Nothings free in this world, you
just discovered what your trip cost you. Good luck, these are professional
sales people. Sharks. Words that belong on Banned.

Just a question, is it possible to tighten/loosen a proper Merc spring
compressor from the top with a socket and extension?
