Speed is not of the essence, as such I have no issue with leaving the
van in capable hands and coming back to retrieve it once it is
repaired.   The van is still in Ash Fork, stored at the only RV park in
town.  Flagstaff was preferred, only because I have friends there and
can arrange cheap-as-free lodgings.  Not that I have anything against
Prescott, I just like Flagstaff.  I'll give them both a call today.. or
actually, I'll probably stop by Burk's, as I'm in Flagstaff right now,
and compare.   I suspect that I might need a total rebuild at this
point.  *sigh*

Thanks for the pointers.
