1) Oops
2) Let's try this again
3) Lesson learned
4) What a nightmare
5) What a blessing
6) What a lemon
7) How many times can Todd get stranded?
8) Aren't new(to you) cars supposed to start?
9) Re-do
10) Are you serious right now?
So here is Todd's new (and permanent) truck.
We really should have known something was up when 12 hours after we brought it home from Watsonville(....first mistake..always buy local), the first truck would not start. Your mind automatically drifts to battery for a truck that has been sitting on a lot and not being driven regularly. So you replace the battery and problem solved, right? Ummm, ya, not so much. The first truck we purchased literally was in the shop every 3-5 days for the same reason (not starting) but always a new undiscovered problem. You can imagine our frustration as after you purchase this "new car to us" with 50K miles and paperwork that states this car is in pristine condition and everything is in tip top shape. P-L-E-A-S-E. Without boring you with all the problems the first truck had, we had the truck for 6 weeks and returned it to the dealership we bought it from after a meeting with a lawyer. :-)
But as all troubles can be disguised as blessings, we (well more Todd) is stoked about his new truck that was a better deal and a FULL SIZE in gorgeous condition.
Sooooooo, let's try this again. Welcome to the family GMC Sierra. Good bye volvo and lemon-never start-leave Todd stranded on a road day for work-truck. Good riddance.
