Auto Mechanics 101


So, as advertised, I took my car to the dealership for my "free" state inspection. Shortly thereafter, I got the dreaded phone call. It seems that they found some crack in my vehicle (NO-not in the glove box!!) According to the crack police, I was in big trouble. I'm not sure what a manifold is, or how you crack it....all I can tell you is that it's BAD. Perhaps the missing brake pads were related to the random crack?
In summary:

VA State inspection at the dealership: $0
Pack of nabs from the lobby: $0.75
Diet coke from the lobby: $2.00 (took 2 tries)
Price of VA State sticker: $872.00 (after repairs)
Being told you're busted for crack: PRICELESS

Easy on the manifold, y'all!
