Hiya everyone,
Just wondering if we got any Board Members out in the Salt Lake City Utah area that might be able to help me out.
Last thursday on the way to my Doc Appts for the Pre Surgery for my back, the Transmission in our Mini Van Blew. It's Gone. Won't do anything anymore. I was about 15 miles out on my 70 Mile Trek to those appointments. Got it all towed home and everything and got in the market for another one as It's really almost cheaper to get a new used one than to Fix this damn thing that has all kinds of Dash Problems as well as the blown Tranny now. I found one. Not a Bad Price, Almost Identical to the one we have now (with blown tranny), hell even the Rims Match, so we'll have a Parts Van (minus the tranny) which in this day and age of Overpriced Parts, could be VERY helpful. Anyway, Long story Short, We are buying this thing over the internet from a Dodge Dealer in I think it's called West Valley suburb of Salt Lake City, and was wondering if anyone down there would be willing to Pick it up and drive it about halfway to us at the Rawlin's or Casper Wyoming Mark. I have the Loan Check in Hand and Probably Mailing it out tomorrow to the dealer, but These damn Auto Transporters want a Small Fortune to Haul it and we don't have much to spare on my VA Disability Checks but could pay a small sum if we could find anyone to help us out. I'm Looking to get all this done before my Back surgery so the Wife will have a Decent Car to take me down and pick me up the 110 mile trip (I really don't trust the Dart or the Diplomat toooo far as they both need some parts but are good for the mile or so the wife drives back and forth to work in) to the Back Surgery spot. My Back surgery is on Jan 19th so I gotta get this done before then. If worse comes to worse, I can get the POS dually and Trailer Dolly unburied from the snow and make the entire trip myself but it's cutting it close to the surgery date. If anyone Can Help, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. Either On this Thread (if the thread needs to be moved to the proper section so be it) or Via Messages.
Thank you all in advance.
Dave
