Thanks for the heads up. I was just "stalking" you, and was wondering why the spot tracker was still showing you there.

Look at the bright side (if there is one), you were at least on your way to the dealership... I bet that was a real challenge. Did you try to run without a clutch, push, or call for a tow (inquiring minds, and nosey b_ _tards want to know) ?

Ended up pushing it 4 blocks loaded down with lotsa **** & a spare tire. Got out front of it in a huge several acre parking lot up hill. They sent help out to push it.

Bummer !! I hate waiting !! Was it a 10am next day type delivery? Did they seem like they were sympathetic to your situation, or like they had you by the nads, and there was nothing you could do?
