Re: [MBZ] Need a car cover
I've really enjoyed not working on my 2015 VW Jetta, other than changing the oil. Our 2010 Dodge RAM has had a host of little things this year, a wheel bearing, front and rear brakes, rust repair and now it needs heater actuators. Those don't look hard, I'm just waiting for a warm day.It needs replacing, I'll look around, maybe next week I'll find a dealership thats hungry to close the year with a sale. Otherwise maybe there will be some deals around President's day. -Curt On Saturday, December 19, 2020, 5:16:22 PM EST, Dan Penoff via Mercedes wrote: I’ll probably buy a “newer” car at some point in the future in an effort to reduce tinker time, but it won’t be “new”.
