44, 911 mile service

down at my brother's place in salinas for T-day, which means it's time for, that's right, yet another chrysler dealer to change my oil.

this time i've got the coupon i couldn't get hold of last time and head on over to my jeep chrysler dodge.

from the get-go they're super-responsive and friendly, so i figure i'll try a gambit.

"hey, i've got a coupon here that's good for wiper blades and an oil change for 20 bucks ... how about i trade you?  you keep the wipers and give me a tire rotation instead for the same price?"  i figure it's a good deal for them because it's just a bit of extra labor, but not hard durable goods going out the door.

"sure!"

they set an afternoon appointment with me (car dealerships almost always want you in in the morning) and took the continual car immediately on arrival.  i went a couple blocks away for a late pancake lunch and they finished it well before i was done with my tasty meal.

now, in theory, they did an inspection here too and found ... nothing wrong ... once again making chapman look suspicious.

my jeep chrysler dodge is a great dealer ... and once again ... the non-5-star dealer is better than the ones that do have stars.  i don't get it.

$24

(this service was supposed to include an air filter, but i did it myself.)
