I am planning on taking a trip this fall. So I guess I should be counting my lucky stars that this happened now instead of on some abandoned hwy in Vermont or something. :?

Its just the repeated money hit that gets to me

89BonnieSE89, Sorry to hear about your misfortune especially on the Aurora. I sure liked mine when I had it even though it was a lease. I hope my 92 will last me for a little while. No major problems now (knock on wood) but you never know.

Watch that trip to Vermont will yield bullet holes in the Aurora instead of mechanical problems!

HEY!!! I know VT is hick territory, but we Tri-state hicks aren't that bad (it'* some other hicks that gave us a bad name...yah...that'* it ). :P

(Just don't come during hunting season...that'* just asking for trouble )

Oh, and Jim...I'm really sorry to hear about NorthStar...that royally sux. It usually comes all at once like that, but your luck has got to turn soon :? Fingers crossed for you...toes too :P

I was on Cardomain, and was checkin out some Auroras, well, interestingly enough..there was an Aurora that some kid bought from a police auction that was a victim of a drive by shooting. He bought the car for nothing and fixed it up nicely. I told her about it last night...Hailey was not impressed. :P So...lets be keeping the AR'* at home....

Now, onto more pertinent news. No word from the dealer yet regarding the rad and trans cooler lines. As far as I know the "old and busted" (thanks Todd) rad is out and they are going to re-terminal the ELC female pin connector. I'm patiently waiting for news
