So she got the trip in and got those parts replaced too...although in
the wrong order ;o(  ...but she may not have gone on the trip
otherwise...

Good analysis Ben!  Hopefully you are only 50% right...for her sake!

My good friend Paul, first, let's not talk how you bleed
radiator.........
haaaaaa ha ha ha.... :-)))) (should i tell everyone, hi hi)

I agree, on her bill, in the suggestions box, it is written:
-Radiator look old, bang up a bit.
-Drive axle, inner left show wear.
-Alternator old, unknown date.
-Tranny output bushing loose (seal eas replace)

The rad broke, and the axle broke!

She was out of budget for the van, more money invested = no trip!
