As I roll into Ottawa with "old betsy" I will need to get it saftied. I have heard horror stories of cars needing their headlight fluid flushed, windshield re-torqued and both transmissions re-sycronized before the car would pass. At that point, you're stuck and either send the car to an early death at the junk yard and buy another, or pay the extorsion and have perfectly good things replaced.
The question is, who is "that guy" in Ottawa - the honest guy who wont put a pry-bar into your front end to demonstrate how things are out of alignment? Perhaps he likes to be paid cash, perhaps he discovers that the strange noise coming from the truck is actually a case of beer and quickly fixes that problem.
My car has years left in her and between the prices of new cars and my irrational affection for betsy, I would hate to part with her.
